Editorial Reviews

Product Description

1. A drop of sweat fell in my eye, and I missed the ball. 2. I stubbed my toe on the base of my bed, now I can't wear my golf shoes. 3. I've only played with these clubs twice. 4. My rain suit is too tight and I can't swing my club smoothly. 5. My ball is all scuffed up. 6. I keep picking up my head. I'm afraid the geese are going to do their business on me. 7. The tee was leaning too far forward. 8. I get nervous shooting last all the time. 9. The sun was in my eyes. 10. I thought we were using the green over there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shaved strokes off my game, October 25, 1999
By A Customer
This book mentions every single thing that you really shouldn't do with your golf game. Not just jokes in here, but real tips that you've heard from players and pros alike.

My kids got me this for Fathers day and it is a great gift. (Thank God it wasn't a tie...) My friends and I laughed for hours with this little book. If you know anyone who likes golf, get this book for them today!

1.0 out of 5 stars Wow, just wow
This book is awful. I can't believe Amazon allowed one reviewer to consistently rate it 5 stars over several months and blatantly promote it as such.

Just make sure you're sitting down to read this. If you're standing and start laughing, you're in for a lot of problems.
