I was disappointed in the book. Too much "filler' and not enough real knowledge. Rating - Great Book Very interesting to understand the theory behind the technology of golf. Will make you smarter in deciding where to spend money on stuff. Rating - Science Wins On page 117, Frank Thomas states, "Standard clubs will do fine until you shoot consistently in the mid to low 70s." "Until then, work on improving you instead of your clubs." Finally, someone with substantial technical knowledge of the evolution of equipment and the history of golf has finally come out and said it. The job of manufacturers is to market and sell their products, but it matters very little to the vast majority of golfers which type of equipment they use. "In forty years, there are only three innovations that mean anything significant to your game: perimeter weighting, the graphite shaft and titanium drivers", page 70. Unlike most technical books on equipment, this is written in layman's language with numerous wise-cracks to spice up his points of view. Unless most players want to keep pouring their hard earned money down a black hole, this book is a must read for both the average and avid golfer.
