Classic Instruction

A dusty, overlooked box revealed more than 100 photographs of Bobby Jones demonstrating, step-by-step, all the fundamentals of golf, keyed to a stack of yellow legal-pad pages filled with meticulous instructions handwritten by Jones himself. Ben Crenshaw's commentary - with photos of him updating Jones's basic instruction and illustrating differences in modern-day golf - makes this remarkable work even more valuable. Classic Instruction offers precise close-ups of the swings, stances and grips that took Jones to unprecedented victories during the 1920s, before the modern sand wedge had even been invented. Every detail is just as appropriate today, and with photographs of Crenshaw and his own commentary interspersed throughout, the book offers a unique look at the masters.
