About this title

Synopsis

Tired of being beaten  by an honest game of golf, self-proclaimed hacker Henry Beard figured that he didn't need a new swing--his game just needed a new set of rules.  With The Official Exceptions to the Rules of Golf, he created a bible for the sensible golfer who doesn't have time to lose.



You'll learn how to cope with pesky influences: missed shots and lost balls that wreak havoc on your score.  Did you search unsuccessfully for your ball in the fairway?  Don't panic.  All you have to do is declare that it is a Ball Missing in Fairway But Obviously Not Lost (Exception #6) and drop another ball into the approximate spot where it must have landed.  What could make more sense?



Filled with fair rules, this is the book that every practical golfer must have.
