Download or read book The Golfing Chronicles written by Brian Glenmuchie and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-12-24 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Golf is a great sport, but like life itself, it is full of contradictions. It's pastoral yet exclusive. It is loaded with strict rules that are routinely bent by the casual player. It's a quiet cerebral game but it's full of raw emotion and can drive some people crazy. And for all its prim respectability, golf attracts a broad cross section of players, fans, and people that make the sport function. The Golfing Chronicles is a collection of fictional short stories set in the village of Sea Side, Rhode Island and focuses on the curious characters that live in and at the margins of the golfing world. These stories range from a humorless greenskeeper out to kill Bill Murray for his portrayal in Caddy Shack, to a young woman who makes millions diving for golf balls in alligator infested water holes, to young man who contemplates about his life as he retrieves balls at a driving range while golfers take dead aim at his head. The Golfing Chronicles is a fun read for the busy golf executive, the weekend hacker and even to the millions of others that don't follow the sport.

Book excerpt: This book is about the science and technology of golf balls. Many golfers don't understand enough about the modern golf ball to choose which ball they should be using. The author has reviewed the US patent literature from Acushnet Company, the maker of Titleist and Pinnacle golf balls, and has summarized the latest developments in golf ball aerodynamics, the various dimple patterns, the composition of the core and the cover, and why these issues are so important for golfers today. No one has ever written a book that summarizes what the original US patent literature teaches us about golf ball science and technology. The latest discoveries, which sometimes may be highly technical in nature, are written in a form and a style that is directed to the average reader. The chapters in Part 1 of the book are arranged according to the golf ball dimple pattern that appears on the surface of the ball. In Part 2 the chapters highlight what the author has learned about all the important golf ball models made by Acushnet Company, e.g., Pro V1, Pro V1x, NXT Tour, NXT Tour S, Pinnacle Soft, etc. This book is also a guide for those of us who collect golf balls as a hobby. Ways to accurately date vintage golf balls are discussed. Photos and useful information about the golf balls in the author's collection are presented and discussed.

Download or read book The Story of the Golf Ball written by Kevin McGimpsey and published by Philip Wilson Publishers. This book was released on 2004-01-17 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the golf ball and how it has affected the game, especially club development and the rules. From the feather ball era in the 17th and 18th centuries, and the gutty ball era of the 1850s to the rubber-cored (modern) ball era this book literally takes you "inside" the ball with fascinating details of all aspects of the golf ball. It covers the development of rules pertaining to weight and size--details that were contested in America and Britain for nearly 50 years, and how ball makers sought to make the ball travel further, move straighter and stand up to the most punishing strokes. Until 1920 there was no size or weight restrictions to the ball. Thereafter maufacturors had to conform to the specifications, otherwise the ball was deemed illegal. The American and British golfing authorities could not agree on dimensions so for nearly 50 years there were 2 'legal' balls played either side of the Atlantic. Ball makers have long sought to make the ball travel further, move straighter and to provide protection to the ball from poorly executed shots. This book shows how manfucaturing techniques have evolved from stuffing feathers into a leather sack in the seventeenth century to hydraulic presses and spraying booths in the early twentieth century. The balls' cover patterns were designed to improve their flight characteristics and these ranged from stars, diamonds and pimples to the round dimple (today's standard) that was patented in the early twentieth century. The author has made extensive use of the data recorded at the many golf memorabilia sales since the early 1980s. He also records many of the prices paid at auction for golf balls.
