This is what Geof Mangum has to say about the book Todd Sones and David DeNunzio, Lights Out Putting: A Mind, Body, and Soul Approach to Golf's Game Within a Game (Contemporary Books 2000). Hardback, 160 pp, $22.95. Todd Sones' book is right up there with the greatest putting books of all time -- George Low's The Master of Putting, Dave Stockton's Putt to Win, and Arnold Palmer's Complete Book of Putting. Sones is two-time Illinois PGA Teacher of the year and a Golf Magazine Top 100 Teacher in America. Like Rik DeGunther in his Art and Science of Putting, Sones tells you what works best and how you can do it. The writing is clear, and the explanation suits the general golfing public. This book is much better than a book like Dave Pelz's Putting Bible, where you get tons of stats about how average putters don't putt so well, and next to nothing actually useful by way of HOW to putt (other than to buy Pelz's gizmos). Sones goes to the heart of the matter every time, teaching the optimal techniques in terms the average golfer can apply daily. That's what teaching is really all about! Great job, Todd! Highly recommended. He has a section on putting books on his website http://www.puttingzone.com/books.html hue View Public Profile Send a private message to hue Find all posts by hue
