Synopsis
Answers common questions about golf history, rules, terms, courses, tournaments, technique, and equipment
Reviews
Kroen, an avid tournament golfer, offers practical tips about traditions, techniques, etiquette, and rules of the game. His chock-full-of-facts presentation is sprinkled with nearly 200 amusing questions and answers (e.g., "why is the stretch between the eleventh and thirteenth holes of Augusta National called the Amen Corner?" or, "why do so many pros wear a hat with the name Amana printed on it?"). This informative book tests readers' knowledge, memory, and common sense in six categories: the game, equipment, swing technique, professional players, courses, and rules. For cerebral connoisseurs of golf, this is a sheer delight to read. Recommended for public libraries.
