Review
The K-I-S-S of the title is built on four letters every golfer can benefit from. They form the acronym for Keep It Simple, Stupid, and if there's any game that suffers from overcomplication, overthinking, and the overall instructional overload that brings on paralysis by analysis, it's golf. The KISS Guide delivers on its titular promise. Its easygoing attitude, straightforward text, and crisp photography combine to keep a complex and tradition-rich game clear enough for a beginner to understand, while offering much to more seasoned duffers. Before it begins to provide the kind of basic instruction that'll get novices up and running, it breezes through some of the important history, rules, and etiquette that every golfer needs to know. Then, the deeper into the book you get, the deeper into the game it goes--with tips, strategies, drills, and solid advice on equipment and lessons. Like a good shot, this is an eye-catching instructional with distance and accuracy, and what golfer doesn't pray daily for just a little more of both? --Jeff Silverman
About the Author
In addition to writing the KISS Guide to Playing Golf, Steve Duno co-wrote Caddie Sense (St. Martin's Press) in partnership with Michael Carrick, longtime caddie and friend of legendary golfer Tom Kite. Steve has also published six books on pet care and numerous works of fiction, which have won him appearances on television and radio. Formerly a teacher in both New York City and Los Angeles, as well as a longtime golfer and animal behaviorist, Steve currently lives in Seattle with his lovable 11-year-old Rottweiler mix, Louie. Colin Montgomerie has been the top golfer in Europe for the past seven years, winning 22 events overall. He has long been ranked among the top two or three players in the world. "Monty" has performed more consistently than any other player on the world stage, and finishes in the money in most tournaments, including the U.S. Open and the PGA Championship. He is particularly known for his dazzling Ryder Cup play.
