Extraordinary Golf revisited 
I just did an Extraordinary Golf school, so I'm inspired to want to read Extraordinary Golf again. (If you haven't read it, it's one of the few absolute "must reads," in my humble opinion.) Anyway, anyone want to re-read and have a discussion? Kind of an online book group or something?

Leland, I'd be interested. I've already had several "re-reads", but I'm due for another ;). I credit Fred's book for most of my improvement since picking up the game a few years ago.

Re: Extraordinary Golf revisited 
Count me in! Though I am not a golfer, I am a huge fan of Fred's (and his lovely wife, Jo) and the philosophy in which he walks the "course" of life.

There really is nothing better than curling up with a good book and a glass of wine!

I was actually searching for some information about tennis when I came across "Extraordinary Golf". The book has inspired this old hacker to give golf one more try. I was especially impressed by the "throwing" exercise and the "before" and "after" pictures in his book. Even thought it's too cold to be outside here in Minnesota, I've been fooling around with my swing inside with interesting (at least to me) results. I'm also interested to see how long I will be open to the "Extraordinary Golf" mindset once I'm out on the links and hit my first slice off the tee.

Anyway, as the subject is obviously fresh in your mind I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.



All the best,

Wood

PS - can't seem to get the spell checker to work so excuse any misspellings

Re: Extraordinary Golf revisited 
I just bought the book and will read it in the next week (Spring Break - hooray). I will be interested to see what others find so impressive about it. Hopefully, I'll be able to contribute something soon.
