Download or read book Golf Girl s Little Tartan Book written by Patricia Hannigan and published by ABRAMS. This book was released on 2011-10-21 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Play like a girl! A female golf writer offers tips, inspiration, and laughs for women who want to excel at the sport. Golf blogger Patricia Hannigan has a driving ambition: to get each of her thousands of female followers to play like a girl. That, she insists, is just the way for a woman to excel at golf—and, every bit as important, to have a lot of fun doing so. A witty and wise departure from oh-so-predictable instructional guides, Golf Girl’s Little Tartan Book doesn’t focus only on technique. Hannigan also writes about attitude and the mental game, demonstrating how a gal who’s passionate about golf can use her womanly style to her distinct advantage on the course. From teeing off (don’t be coy about using those red tees) to getting teed off (don’t be timid about throwing the occasional tantrum), Hannigan entertainingly dispenses advice that’s sure to be useful to any woman intent on securing membership in the “boys’ club” called golf.

Returning from college to the small town of Morgan, Josh is smitten with Erica Chamberlain. But the course to true love is lined with traps and hazards, from Josh's inability to decode female signals to her missions trip to Haiti and the threat of tropical romance to introspection over the purity of his motives. Meanwhile, his lifelong church has lost its mind-if not its soul. The new pastor has a different gimmick every week and the quirky young adults group is constantly on the verge of revolt. Nothing's sacred anymore, but Josh doesn't know if he's just bitter or if dear old Morgan Bible has gone off the deep end. With the help of his best friends Scotty and Cassie, and with plenty of metaphorical advice from Scotty's golf-loving dad, Josh spends a summer pursuing Erica and contemplating his relationship with God. Will he ever get his chance to win her heart? And in what condition will he ultimately find his?

Download or read book Women in Golf written by David L. Hudson Jr. and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-11-30 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the thirst for more information about women's golf, very little exists about its history outside of books about the legendary Babe Didrikson Zaharias. Hudson fills this void, offering a complete history of women in golf. He focuses on the fascinating development of women's golf, the creation of the women's tour, star athletes of the past, the astronomical rise of the present-day tour greats, and the future of the sport. Golf may well have replaced baseball as America's pastime, and the sport enjoys incredible popularity across the globe. At the professional level, women's golf continues to escalate in popularity and media attention, particularly with the dominance of LPGA champion Annika Sorenstam and the interest surrounding teenage phenom Michelle Wie. Despite the thirst for more information about women's golf, very little exists about its history outside of books about the legendary Babe Didrikson Zaharias. Hudson's new book fills this void, focusing on the fascinating development of women's golf, the creation of the women's tour, star athletes of the past, and the astronomical rise of the present-day tour greats. In addition, Hudson examines women's golf in the context of the country's history of discrimination against women. Women's golf grew in popularity after the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920, granting the right of suffrage. Unfortunately, gender discrimination remains a reality in the world of golf in certain locales of country club golf. Nonetheless, women's golf has never been more popular. For example, the Futures Tour, where girls and young women hone their skills on the way to the LPGA, has grown to more than 300 players from 27 countries, making it the largest international developmental tour in the world. And the 2006 LPGA Tour featured 34 events with prize money nearing $50 million, the highest ever in LPGA history. In 1890, Hudson writes, the Washington Post reported that some girls are anxious to learn golf, because they are really fond of sport and exercise; others, because it gives them a chance to show off a natty suit. Those girls are now acknowledged as women—and this book shows how very far they, and their sport, have come.
