Inscription at the end of the Foreword to: "Hal May your golf rise higher higher. " but signature below is illegible. Pages are otherwise clean and unmarked -- apparently seldom if ever read. Illustrated with step-by-step how-to-do-it photos. Index. Bound in the original green-stamped yellow pictorial boards. The Golfing Machine Its Construction Operation and Adjustment. G.O.L.F. stands for Geometrically Oriented Linear Force. From the Introduction: "It may be that an octopus -- or a "thing" from outer space -- would need a different procedure but for people -shaped golfers there is actually only "one swing" as depicted in Chapter 8 and discussed in Chapter 7. This Basic Stoke is not a basic procedure but is basic geometry. Almost anyone can do an imitation that could appear to the untrained eye to be as good looking as those of many experts. And all that would need to be added would be more precision in the Component relationships. And that this book can supply. In fact that is all it is intended to supply. Without that 'Basic Motion' it couldn't even do that. See 3-0. The relationships in the Golf Stroke can be explained scientifically only by geometry because geometry is the science of relationships. So learn Feel from Mechanics rather than Mechanics from Feel. 'Alignment Golf' -- Feel from Mechanics -- dispenses with all dependence on 'mandatory' Positions which can be perfectly executed and still miss the ball. They facilitate things but guarantee nothing -- unless you know the relations that are supposed to facilitate.". 1979 edition. Hardcover. Very Good condition/No jacket probably as issued.
