Description: The 20th anniversary edition of this classic work--the bestselling golf instruction book of all time--includes a new introduction by a prominent golfer, 20 new illustrations, and never-before-published materials from the Penick family archives. Harvey Penick was a renowned golf pro who began his career at the Austin (Texas) Country Club as a caddie. Though he coached golf at the University of Texas for thirty years, and worked with the likes of Tom Kite, Ben Crenshaw, and Betsy Rawls, he never left the country club, where he continued to teach until his death in 1995. Bud Shrake, an avid golfer and the coauthor of all of Penick's books, died in 2009.
