  Since his 50th birthday in November 1985, Gary Player has been a regular winner on the Senior Tour. Other golfers are realizing that like him, they can improve their game and maintain its vitality from middle age on. This book helps the reader to improve and maintain specific skills and golf-related fitness and prevent injuries. All golfers - and particularly the seniors - have to worry about the classic golf injuries: to the back, to the knees and to the tendons. Player has perfected the walk-through swing, a technique to avoid major back strain. He demonstrates exercises for golfers that can be executed even while on the road, with little equipment or space to work with - exercises that he has developed in his 30 years of world travel. The book also features Gary Player's philosophies on diet and positive thinking so that any golfer, whether he is 50, 60 or 70, may choose those elements of the overall plan which suit him best and develop a personalized programme.
