Imagine being afforded the opportunity not only to play the course, but to be able to bring your father along for the ride. To complete the priceless fantasy, Jack Nicklaus—“The Golden Bear”—hosts the round. Through fate, coincidence and good fortune, Joe Wessel managed to find a way to make that happen. In White Fang and The Golden Bear, Wessel recounts that special round, how it came about, and what happened on the pristine grounds of Augusta National. With the help of veteran sportswriter Bill Chastain, Wessel's memoir offers the touching story of how the game of golf helped in the development of a special father-son bond and how that relationship grew first throughout Wessel’s childhood, then during his tenure as a football player-turned-coach, and finally once he was a dad himself. This book offers the perfect father-son story for any sports aficionado!
Download or read book So Help Me Golf written by Rick Reilly and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2022-05-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beloved New York Times bestselling author and golf aficionado shares his insatiable curiosity, trademark sense of humor, and vast knowledge of the game in this cavalcade of original pieces about why we love the sport, now featuring three additional new pieces. This is the book Rick Reilly has been writing in the back of his head since he fell in love with the game of golf at eleven years old. He unpacks and explores all of the wonderful, maddening, heart-melting, heart-breaking, cool, and captivating things about golf that make the game so utterly addictive. We meet the PGA Tour player who robbed banks by night to pay his motel bills, the golf club maker who takes weekly psychedelic trips, and the caddy who kept his loop even after an 11-year prison stint. We learn how a man on his third heart nearly won the U.S. Open, how a Vietnam POW saved his life playing 18 holes a day in his tiny cell, and about the course that's absolutely free. Reilly mines all of the game’s quirky traditions—from the shot of bourbon you take before you tee off at Peyton Manning’s course, to the way the starter at St. Andrews announces to your group (and the hundreds of tourists watching), “You’re on the first tee, gentlemen.” He means that quite literally: St. Andrews has the first tee ever invented. We’ll visit the eighteen most unforgettable holes around the world (Reilly has played them all), including the hole in Indonesia where the biggest hazard is monkeys, the one in the Caribbean that's underwater, and the one in South Africa that requires a shot over a pit of alligators; not to mention Reilly’s attempt to play the most mini-golf holes in one day. Reilly expounds on all the great figures in the game, from Phil Mickelson to Bobby Jones to the simple reason Jack Nicklaus is better than Tiger Woods. He explains why we should stop hating Bryson DeChambeau unless we hate genius, the greatest upset in women’s golf history, and why Ernie Els throws away every ball that makes a birdie. Plus all the Greg Norman stories Reilly has never been able to tell before, and the great fun of being Jim Nantz. Connecting it all will be the story of Reilly’s own personal journey through the game, especially as it connects to his tumultuous relationship with his father, and how the two eventually reconciled through golf. This is Reilly’s valentine to golf, a cornucopia of stories that no golfer will want to be without. **The Sports Librarian’s Best of 2022 – Sports Books**

Download or read book Holographic Golf written by Larry Miller and published by Pelican Publishing. This book was released on 2000-09-30 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A PGA player and golf teacher shows how to improve your game dramatically with visualization and the “holographic” interaction of mind and body. Inspired by Michael Murphy’s classic Golf in the Kingdom and the remarkable new reality theory explained by Michael Talbot in The Holographic Universe, Holographic Golf shows readers how to use both mind and body to improve their games dramatically. As any experienced and frustrated golfer will tell you, real improvement is a rarity—eighty percent of all amateurs can’t break 100. This sorry statistic reflects a faulty system of instruction, and Larry Miller knows why. From day one, students are traditionally taught to piece together their swing from countless fragments. In contrast, Miller believes there are only three “static positions” vital to the swing: the “address,” “at the top,” and the “finish.” What goes on in between is unimportant, he says, because if you land at each point correctly, you will have done everything right along the way. He also considers what others don’t: the Holographic Principle of Interconnectedness, by which one can conceptually fuse the golf swing with the ball, the terrain, and the atmospheric conditions for maximum performance. In Holographic Golf, Miller also offers positive reinforcement and visualization techniques for improving balance and accuracy. He presents unique and creative exercises, like practicing with mirrors; using your own shadow and the sounds of the course to help “flow” your swing; and “ball flinging,” where the golfer imagines the ball is a magnet. By blending the physical with the mental, Miller has created a uniquely holistic approach that is certain to appeal to all players who seek an effective alternative method for a better—and more pleasurable—golf game. Praise for Holographic Golf “Finally, a unique and effective new method of golf instruction.” —Lee Eisenberg, Time Magazine
