		<description>I&#039;m with you on the video training stuff like Triple X Factor, etc., but Harvey Penick&#039;s books aren&#039;t really instruction books.  They are a collection of anecdotes written by a long-time teacher of note.  

Sure, he passes along his thoughts on various aspects of the golf swing along the way, but &quot;The Little Red Book&quot; is as much a Chicken Soup book as anything.  It is by no means Hogan&#039;s &quot;Five Lessons.&quot;</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve written about the same concept: http://www.samwilkinson.org/2009/06/13/head-downswing-slow/

I&#039;d go even farther than you though, and say that all of these lessons, tricks, tips, and advice is functionally useless for anybody that isn&#039;t practicing/playing on a very regular basis. There are lots of players who just want to be good, and they&#039;d like to achieve that without any effort at all. That&#039;s who these videos appeal to, because anybody who&#039;s serious about the game knows that, as with anything, achievement requires practice.

These &quot;teachers&quot; who promise anything else are nothing more than lying hucksters.</description>
