Book Description

October 1, 2004
"(Steve) Moore's work evokes the bizarre imagery of Gary Larson's "The Far Side" and Bill Watterson's "Calvin and Hobbes." --"Pittsburgh Post-Gazette"

Even the most golf-obsessed must admit it: Swatting that tiny dimpled ball around meticulously manicured landscaping makes for one hilarious game. For everyone who appreciates that humor--and "especially" for those too serious about golf to crack a smile--"Dibs on His Clubs!" parades the lighter side of this sport enjoyed by millions.

"Dibs on His Clubs!" is AMP's first book with Steve Moore, the cartoonist and creative genius behind the "In the Bleachers" daily panel, now syndicated to newspapers throughout the U.S. Steve narrows his normal general sports focus to golf, a game that captivates everyone from avid amateurs to those who enjoy watching multimillionaire athletes at work. Steve brings his trademark wacky characters and outrageous situation comedy to every frame of this golf-guffawing collection.

"Dibs on His Clubs!" comes richly illustrated in Moore's sparse but dead-on drawing style. His paunchy duffers are delightful. His players' expressions are outrageous. And no other cartoonist working today finds more ways to inject the timely and the totally-off-the-wall aspects of sports into his work. This book's a humor hole in one for everyone who ever picked up a club, wondered what gift to buy the golfer who already has everything, or who simply appreciates seeing a great comedic mind at the top of his game.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious cartoons about the foibles of the "great" game of golf, December 31, 2008
This review is from: Dibs on His Clubs!: An In the Bleachers Golf Collection (Paperback)
This collection of cartoons about the highs, lows and frustrations of golf is hilarious. The hazards are everything from alligators, wrong turns, to creatures from another planet, but in all cases Moore manages to capture the essence of the game that fascinates and frustrates so many. My favorite cartoon is the one on page 108 where the husband is sitting at the table with a cup of coffee and reading a newspaper. His thought caption is "I wish I could go golfing." His wife has her apron on and is washing the dishes in the sink. Her thought caption is "I wish he would go golfing." The caption at the bottom of the cartoon is "Communication breakdown." It just doesn't get any funnier than that.
If you love golf, hate golf or don't have an opinion, you will find these cartoons funny. For like the best cartoons based on a theme (golf), they have applicability to life beyond the theme (golf).
