Tour Tempo 2: The Short Game & Beyond

I have learned so much from these books about swinging a golf club. My distance has improved, my accuracy and dispersion has gotten much better. I am truly playing better golf. Eye opening content!

I bought the tour tempo 2 as soon as I heard it was available..I play a lot of golf and practice my short game regularly but when I get on the course it's like I've never picked up a club. Shank easy chips, leave balls in the sand, thin shots over the green and fat shots that go inches ,putts either too short or too long, all costing me strokes...btw I'm an 8.4 index and am frustrated being stuck there...i had bot the original tour tempo book years ago and found it helped me a lot...bought the iPhone app, and the long game music tunes that I use to practice with...The tour tempo 2 is a heaven sent wish....I now have the short game tempo tunes on my iPhone app and the instructional videos that come with the book in my iPad and iPhone . John does another GREAT job explaining why this works and why tempo is everything....my first practice session with the short game tempo tunes showed me how off I was with my short game tempo...way quick under pressure or too slow in the sand..I used the tunes to practice my chipping, sand and putting...worked great in practice...I felt like I knew what I was doing..BUT them again I am a great practicer..the key is on the course...the day after my first use of the tunes I played a club team match for the finals of our city club league...I was put up against a 4 hdc who made very few mistakes...I whooped him because my short game was on..I was using the tunes (in my head) and played as well as I played in a year...as John says in his book, besides helping set your tempo the tunes remove the mechanical thoughts during a swing.... that is what was killing my short game...For the price it is a great deal...book, short game tempo tunes, instructional video (how best to use the tunes) and video called "the force" -a warm up video that really helps set your tempo before a round....sorry if this is long winded but I am excited about my new found short game tempo thanks to TourTempo 2...

I was excited when I read that the Novosel's were following up their Tour Tempo with Tour Tempo 2. I had such great results with the first book. Well, after reading Tour Tempo 2, I finally realized that the short game of chipping, putting, and sand play had a totally different tempo than the full swing.I put the tempo to the test yesterday. I hit two of the best bunker shots of my life! I made no changes to my swing, just simply followed the 1 to 1 ratio of speed outlined in the book. The ball "popped" out of the bunker and checked up nicely about 6 feet from the pin - both times. I couldn't believe it, and I my playing partners were stating how the shots were very "pro-like". Once you read TT2, you'll find the sand shot is finesse shot, not a power shot and the Novosel's prove that fact in their data. Additionally, a surprise chapter in the book discusses the "force" - a sort of ratio of power in the golf swing. I won't spoil the read; however, I will tell you that I'm now hitting my driver longer Imuch longer) and straighter without any changes in my swing mechanics. I do believe that one should work on swing mechanics as it will make your swing more efficient, but I will also add that swinging at the correct tempo, will fix a lot of your mechanics. Once you learn to swing to the short game tempo beats, you'll chip and putt the ball with ease.Tour Tempo is one the single biggest discoveries for my golf game. Your game will improve overnight. TT@ is an easy read, just like the first book, and I highly recommend it to any golfer - especially for the one who's struggling to find consistency in his or her game. Gotta have this information in your arsenal. A no-brainer.Michael Smith

Best golf instruction books I have ever read to date, among umpteen books and lessons I've read.This is without doubt the real difference in understanding how the game is played...correctly.The huge added benefit is how quickly this is implemented before you see results. Less than a day tosee great results. Hard to believe but true. The first book is the best of the two as it deals with the full swing tempo.The second book, Tour Tempo 2, deals with the important short game , including sand shot tempo. Both are greatfor any player who wants to improve immediately but the first one may be all that you need to understand the concept and see results quickly. Wish I had these two books years ago.This is a follow-up to my last review. I must say that it is so easy to return to past errors on the course that it is refreshing to revisit this on a regular basis to regain the feel you need to play consistent golf on the course. Good Tempo is a must in every aspect of the golf swing from driver thru the putt. The actual time to swing from start to impact should be the "same time" for all clubs. Hard to believe but true. The putter swing is much slower than the driver but should take the same amount of "time" from start to impact as the driver.

Seller kept me up to date through the whole process. Product arrived and was exactly what I was expecting.

It’s a good read with good support. If you want to improve your game I would suggest you read this book.
