Book Description

May 30, 2001
Perfect for golf fans young and old, Astonishing but True Golf Facts highlights the most amazing-and amusing-moments from the sport's rich history

Golf's half-a-millennium history is filled with memorable events, remarkable achievements, and truly bizarre occurrences that likely will never be duplicated. These incredible moments are chronicled in Astonishing but True Golf Facts , a compendium of fascinating tidbits from golf's storied past.

Golf enthusiasts will be amazed as they read of the high-and low-points of their beloved sport, such as the amateur golfer who beat odds of over a billion to one to score two holes in one during a single round, the inventor who plays with clubs made from the recycled metals of nuclear missiles, the tournament that was held up by a flock of crows, and the golf fan who was struck twice by errant drives during the 1996 U.S. Open.

These true golfing stories are sure to be a source of inspiration, amusement, and astonishment to duffers and serious golfers everywhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars Astonishing but true enjoyment, June 25, 2001

Todd Pizzi (Boca Raton, FL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Astonishing But True Golf Facts (Paperback)
As a golfer, I've read probably a hundred books about golf. But I've never read one that tickled me or touched me more than this one. It has everything an avid golfer could want from a book. Only a round with Tiger could be more fun or more inspiring. A must read for the linksman!
