Description

THE INSIDE SWING: KEY TO BETTER GOLF-August F. Daro-Excellent, RARE 1st HC w/DJ!. The result of that reflection is what this book is all about. Daro discovered that, like most golfers, he failed to "feel" his faults as he moved through the swing. As he learned--by himself--how to identify those blind spots, he learned "how to learn.". Hi! You're looking at an excellent condition book which is VERY RARE, hard to find and OUT OF PRINT and a classic guide to the golf swing written by AUGUST F. DARO with HERB GRAFFIS--the book is an unstated FIRST EDITION and FIRST PRINTING and a HARDCOVER with the ORIGINAL DUSTJACKET and is NOT a remainder copy and NOT price-clipped, with the original $5.95 price in the upper corner of the front inner flap. This book is in excellent condition and the book itself has two short highlighted passages early in the book but NO other markings, the opening edges of the inner flaps attached to the boards with transparent tape, slight dings on the spine and opening tips and just slight evidence of gentle browsing but NO other significant imperfections; the dustjacket has tiny tears on the upper spine tip, a tiny tear on the upper center edge of the front cover, slight dings on the upper opening tips and just slight shelfwear otherwise but NO other significant flaws! The book is titled The Inside Swing: Key to Better Golf and it was written by AUGUST F. DARO with HERB GRAFFIS; it was published by Thomas Y. Crowell Company in 1972 and is a 1st EDITION and 1st PRINTING with a publication line reading 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. Says August Daro: "I have reviewed the hundreds of golf lessons I took without learning much, the bales of golf instruction articles that didn't help much, and the countless hours I practiced without building much of a useful habit. Then I reflected on what happened that took me from the 100 class to a game closer to par." The result of that reflection is what this book is all about. Daro discovered that, like most golfers, he failed to "feel" his faults as he moved through the swing. As he learned--by himself--how to identify those blind spots, he learned "how to learn." He isolated pre-swing checkpoints and constructed ways to join them with his own special aptitudes. When they were applied properly he discovered that they helped him to execute a smooth version of the "inside swing." Then he was on his way to scratch golf. Daro--a Chicago obstetrician who took up golf in his late thirties, and analyzed it with the merciless scrutiny of a surgeon--insists that almost any golfer following these clearly written and illustrated guide points can master that method for themselves. He studied the many fundamental changes in the continuing refinements of golf techniques. This book, covering such basics as the grip, stance, address, the long and short game, focuses insistently on the dynamics of the inside swing. It shows, through specific and superbly drawn illustrations, why the inside swing assures better game control. A fantastic find, and a beaut iful copy of this book!
