Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since that fateful day several hundred years ago when a Scottish shepherd first struck a rock with a shillelagh, perhaps no single athletic pursuit has brought man more joy and frustration, more fulfillment and utter despair than the game of golf. It has been said by many that it is a microcosm of life itself—a beautiful game which tests the mind, body, and spirit. As a testament to that, there has been no shortage of inspired writing on the topic, as golf has long caught the interest and imagination of some of the world’s finest and most celebrated writers. Contributors include P. G. Wodehouse, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Bernard Darwin, Ring Lardner, Horace Hutchinson, Charles E. Van Loan, A. A. Milne, Francis Ouimet, and many more.

Download or read book Golf s Holy War written by Brett Cyrgalis and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-05-18 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world of golf is at a crossroads. As technological innovations displace traditional philosophies, the golfing community has splintered into two deeply combative factions: the old-school teachers and players who believe in feel, artistry, and imagination, and the technical minded who want to remake the game around data. In Golf's Holy War, Brett Cyrgalis takes readers inside the heated battle playing out from weekend hackers to PGA Tour pros. At the Titleist Performance Institute in Oceanside, California, golfers clad in full-body sensors target weaknesses in their biomechanics, while others take part in mental exercises designed to test their brain's psychological resilience. Meanwhile, coaches like Michael Hebron purge golfers of all technical information, tapping into the power of intuitive physical learning by playing rudimentary games. From historic St. Andrews to manicured Augusta, experimental communes in California to corporatized conferences in Orlando, William James to Ben Hogan to theoretical physics, the factions of the spiritual and technical push to redefine the boundaries of the game.

Download or read book Classic Shots written by Marty Parkes and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2007 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just in time for Father's Day and a new golf season, Classic Shots showcases the best 250 photographs of the sport from the 1920s to the present day, culled from the USGA's archive of more than half a million images. While some of these photos have appeared in print over the years, many have never been published before. Among the many highlights are a single image showing the great Bob Jones' swing sequence... Payne Stewart's 1999 U.S. Open-winning putt at Pinehurst Country Club... Arnold Palmer's 1960 win at Cherry Hill... dramatic shots of Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson, Phil Mickelson, Tiger Woods, Michelle Wie, and other golf superstars. The photographs are organized into five geographic regions: Northeast, South, Mid-Continent, West, and International. Accompanying essays introduce each region, examining particular images and telling the stories behind them. An essay by New York Times columnist and best-selling author Thomas L. Friedman underscores the unique qualities of the game of golf and its enduring impact upon its players and fans. From memorable moments of the game to casual portraits of legendary players, from striking landscapes of world-renowned courses to fascinating artifacts and memorabilia, Classic Shots is a unique visual treasure that will delight and inspire golfers of all ages.

A certain amount of collaboration has of course been necessary; but Joyce is responsible for everything dealing with ladies' golf, the chapter on Putting, and the greater portion of that on Tee Shots.

Download or read book Golf and the Art of War written by Don Wade and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 2006-08-29 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As anyone who plays it knows, golf isn't just a game. It's war. Golf and the Art of War adopts and explains the lessons of warfare found in Sun Tzu's essays, The Art of War. Some 2,400 years ago, Sun Tzu argued that careful planning and sound information are the keys to the success of any campaign. Primarily, Tzu considered organization, control, and weather crucial elements to victory. In Golf and the Art of War, veteran golf writer Don Wade presents a unique comparison of Tzu's philosophies and the game of golf. Wade shows how Tzu's lessons for a successful military campaign — specifically the areas of strategy, competition, and course management — serve as the ultimate attack plan for victory on the green. Golf and the Art of War is the first book to adapt Sun Tzu's strategies to golf. Tzu's cerebral approach to warfare is ideally suited to this most cerebral of sports. The comparisons and examples are offered in a clear and focused manner, with a generous sampling of historical references and relevant examples.
