1,001 Reasons to Love Golf
1,001 Reasons to Love Golf
In between the first tee off and the 18th hole there are many reasons to love (and in times of frustration love to hate) the time honored game of golf. This book is full of 1,001 of those reasons that help explain every player's love of the game. The book is a compilation of text and images (both nostalgic and modern) and is filled with information about the game, quotes from some of the greatest golf literature, stories about famous golfers, male and female, and others who influenced the game, photographs of great courses, equipment, collectibles, players, as well as old advertising and archival images. The reasons for loving golf run the gamut from philosophical observations about golf and life (golf shows us the part that chance plays in our lives; golf is a game of honor; golf teaches us to be aware of our limits while aspiring to transcend them) to specific events and experiences (making your first eagle; a great Big Bertha driver for Father's Day; a corner room at Russack's Hotel in St. Andrews with a view of the Old Course).
