Here are some customer reviews of
Oceans of Fire (Drake Sisters Novels)
: If you want a story about Tiger's game, this is it. It's a little overdone on the publicity side,suggesting some editor jazzed it up a bit. As a golf instruction manual,somewhat disappointing considering how great he is.
I learnt golf about 2 years ago. Many of my flaws were fixed after reading this book. I found the book very useful for golf lover who wants to improve his skill.
This is probably the best golf instruction book I have ever read. The contents are neatly organised and every aspect is clearly illustrated by the use of appropriate photos.
I received this book for Christmas and read it in about 3 days. I could not put it down. I plan to read it again to concentrate on the drills. The book is separated on each piece of the game: putting, chipping, irons, woods, sand, etc. I played a couple days after finishing and I felt an improvement already! The most important lessons were found in chapters 9 (How to stay in control) and 10 (How to master the mind). For a high handicap golfer like myself the biggest problems are keeping a cool head during the round and not playing out of my abilities. Many times my bad shots occur out of frustration. Seeing the game through Tiger's eyes helped me realize how he has become such a tremendous player. It has also made me a bigger fan! This is a must read for any level player.
I bought Tiger's book several months ago as a I started learning to play golf in earnest. My experience has been similar to those others who have reviewed this book - excellent! However, one point I wanted to add was that I find that the book as a wealth of specific points (such as tee and ball address positions depending on club selection etc), that at first seem too detailed, though ultimately are sought for as your level of play increases. Even the ordering of the book's chapters at first seem odd (the swing is somewhere in the middle), but it's fair to say make much more sense once you've been using it for some few months. This alone indicates it's excellent value for money as a resource of pictures, advice and lessons learned you can keep coming back too as your game progresses and you're ready to move onto the next level. And when Tiger hands over some golfing advice - you pay attention
