Sinopsis:

A leading biomechanics expert and a premier golf instructor share the secrets of the perfect swing using a breakthrough learning tool—for novice and advanced golfers alike.
  
For seventeen years, CompuSport International’s biomechanics expert Dr. Ralph Mann devoted himself to studying the swings of more than 100 PGA and LPGA Tour players to uncover the keys to a better game and a lower handicap. The results: the computer-generated composite Pro, which embodies the mechanical elements of the holy grail of the golf swing—efficient, effective, and now achievable.
 
Illustrated with 175 animated 3-D stills of the Pro that pinpoint the exact motions of a body executing the perfect swing, Swing Like a Pro provides accurate, consistent information about how to play the game properly, breaking down the exact steps you can take to develop and refine your skills at performing every aspect of the shot. Mann teams up with renowned golf instructor Fred Griffin to examine and explain
 
• Setup, including how to grip and align the club properly while finding the perfect balance for your body
• The seven characteristics of a great backswing, with drills for improvement
• How to achieve distance with accuracy through your downswing
• How to put all these elements together with both timing and tempo
• And much more!

With its unique cutting-edge, scientific approach, and the expertise of its authors, Swing Like a Pro promises to be the best golf Pro you ever consulted to help you improve your swing and shave strokes off your handicap—and proves that there is such a thing as a perfect swing.
