About this title

Synopsis

Gary McCord has been playing the PGA tour for the last twenty-three years, and broadcasting for CBS for the last ten. His tournament success has been, shall we say, mixed. But during those years, he admits, "a number of strange and interesting things have transpired."Now, through his unique greens-eye view, McCord brings them to us: the Tour, the personalities, the culture, the very sights and smells of professional golf. Inside you'll find people named Norman, Nicklaus, Pavin, Watson, Mickelson, and Daly. But you'll also find deeply funny tales of terror on everything from Qualifying School to the Masters.In all, Just a Range Ball... is a work of pure delight from Gary McCord, television's number one golf commentator and iconoclast.

Review

In his 20-plus years as a touring pro, CBS golf commentator Gary McCord may never have won a tournament, but all those hours on the course obviously honed his skills as a raconteur. His memoir, filled with pithy observations of his fellow pros, is funny and self-effacing, enjoyable from tee to green.
