Women's golf has changed dramatically in the last decades. Until the end of the Second World War ladies golf was essentially a glorified form of pitch-and-putt, and was predominantly amateur. With the advent of professional women golfers the need for teaching methods written for and by women has become increasingly important.
Here follows a selection of our preferred golf books and instructionals for us, women golfers.
