You've got those brand spankin' new, not-so-cheap clubs guaranteed to turn a hacker into a Tiger, yet you're still scoring in the triple digits. Don't get teed off just yet--GOLF FOR WEEKEND WARRIORS, part of a new series by The Lyons Press, offers the next best thing: all the lingo, the games within the game, the tall tales you'd expect from the 19th hole, and even some nuts-and-bolts advice for those of you looking to shave a few strokes.

He may not be Arnold Palmer or Jack Nicklaus, but Randy Howe knows how to have fun even when the putts aren't falling and the beverage cart is nowhere to be found. Blending the self-effacing skepticism shared by all golf addicts with the blind hope of someday attaining the holy grail of golf-improving enough to shoot his age-Howe provides information ranging from the history of the game to proper course etiquette, and chapters like "Banter," "Got Gear?," and "How to Get onto the Course and Who to Play With." Lovers of golf will find themselves chuckling from tee to green, no matter how many balls they've lost!

About the Author:

RANDY HOWE, aka Sir Slice-A-Lot, keeps his clubs in the trunk because you never know when the urge will overwhelm. A twenty-four handicap, he has the knowledge of a fourteen and the obsession of a four. Howe is the author of eight other books, including Basketball for Weekend Warriors and Softball for Weekend Warriors. He lives in Madison, Connecticut, but calls the Gary Player course at Lyman Orchards home.
