|  | Golf Is a Woman's Game by Jane Horn
When she first started playing golf, Jane Horn was told by golf pros that as a woman, she could not compress an iron shot anywhere near the average male golfer, who would always be two clubs stronger with their irons. Fifteen years later, Horn has had the last laugh, hitting a seven-iron 150 yards -- two clubs stronger than the average male golfer! A leading professional golfer and golf instructor, Horn contends that although women have a strong natural ability for golf, most women golfers are handicapped by erroneous instructions and misinformation, and are often made to feel like unwanted guests trespassing on male territory. In Golf Is a Woman's Game, she details 25 basic techniques designed specifically for women, which, with practice, will enable the reader to hit the ball as hard, as accurately, and as far as a man.
