How To Break 80 ReviewPenny Howe (244)    Penny Howe  http://www.howtobreak80review.com Golf Putting Instruction--Is Golf Putting Instruction Important?Posted Tuesday, January 22, 2008 (1 year 306 days ago.) Viewed 53 times. The question, "Is Golf Putting Instruction Important?", can easily be answered with a little arithmetic and a few truths, don't you think?
Putting is half the game. On a standard par 72 golf course, thirty-six strokes are allowed to get the ball from tee to green, and the other thirty-six strokes are for putts. Fact is, that little two or three-foot shot you make with the putter counts just as much as that 200 or 250 yard shot you are hoping to make on your drive. No matter how well you are able to strike the ball with all your other clubs, until you roll that little ball into the hole, you don't have a score, do you?
Now, don't worry and don't get uptight at the mention of that word--birdie! The truth is, whatever handicap you have, you can still accomplish those birdies. Let's examine those opportunities for birdies and how to put more of them on your score card! There are three ways to make a birdie: First, you can birdie the par 5s by hitting the ball so far that you reach the green in two strokes and then use two putts. Second, you can lay your approach shot .--or your tee shot on the par threes- so close to the pin that the putt is a mere formality. Or, you can learn to sink those middle-distance and long putts and take one stroke on the green instead of the regulation two. So, which do you think might work the best for you? If you can reach the par 5's in two, fantastic for you, but you still need to know how to putt. Let's be honest, usually the average player can't reach a par 5 green in less than three strokes. So, if you are going to birdie you must either make a great approach shot so the putt is a mere formality, or you need to drain that first putt if your approach is not so great. Oh, oh, did you see that word putt above, three times! On the par 4s, if you are lucky enough to reach the green in two, that is absolutely fabulous. To make a birdie, you need to hole that first putt. If you are approaching the green with your third shot, then only a hole in will give you a birdie, but a chip and a good putt will save you par. There is that putt word again! On the par 3s, the average golfer is often going to miss the green entirely on the tee shot. Again, to make a birdie you have to hole your approach shot or if you make the green, you need that magic one putt. Oh, no, there is that putt word again! Well, in all the scenarios, the word putt seems to be reoccurring. We all have the ability to learn to sink those middle-distance and long putts. We all have the opportunity to learn to take one stroke on the green instead of the regulation two! So, let's ask the question again. Which way of making birdies do you think might work the best for you? You are right--the third is by far the most productive and for us non-pro players, really a chance to drop those shots and get to a lower handicap. In eighteen glorious holes there are eighteen glorious opportunities to drop the ball into the hole with your first putt. So, if you want to shave some strokes off your score and make more birdies, work on your putting! So, Is Golf Putting Instruction Important? I hope you answered Yes.

"How to Break 80 and Shoot Like the Pros " is a golf instruction guide in the form of an ebook authored by Jack Moorehouse. He professes this is your personal guide to quickly lower your scores. He states he has helped hundreds of people and he is confident he can help you too. He says it is a complete guide to shoot your best scores ever, whatever your handicap. If you are a golfer, How to Break 80 sounds good, doesn't it! But… do his promises come from a credible place? Is he only blowing his own horn or do others agree? In defense of Mr. Moorehouse, I have to tell you that he is a very visible presence on the web. He has free articles everywhere offering help with golf tips on a variety of subjects. They range from improving your golf swing and advancing your chipping and putting, to what to do when lightning strikes and how to choose the right Golf teacher. He even says he is willing to answer your questions. He offers a free weekly golf newsletter that won the 2006 Apex Award for Publication Excellence. He has updated his How to Break 80 golf manual with fresh and new content as promised. Count them-there are seven new areas in his updated version. All of these things give him brownie points!

They say it is a super book, written in an easy to understand manner. It looks like these websites are pleased and are standing behind what How to Break 80 has to offer. But…were there any numbers to back up these reviews? From my research I only found a handful of reviews giving numerical ratings for How to Break 80. These numbers were based on main features, proven techniques, qualities, and effectiveness. Here are the ratings I found-based out of 10: 9.5, 9.4, 8, 8, and 8. These average out to a high rating of 8.58. Like Abraham Lincoln once said, "You can please some of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time." From these numbers I would say that How to Break 80 has pleased these people. But…were there any testimonials about the effectiveness of this golf instructional guide?

Sounds like happy customers! But…..what are they saying about the price? "By far the best money I've ever spent on golf" one golfer says. Others tote that it is "money well spent", "a fantastic value", and "for $37 it was a steal!" You get immediate access to How to Break 80 in ebook form. If you learn better using reading and listening, then the ebook along with the audio program might be for you at $47. Either choice, they both come with a fist full of bonuses-six to be exact and a 60 day money-back guarantee. Like another of the testimonials mentioned "the free items were enough for the cost of the program." The consensus is they are getting value for their money.
