Pages : 212
Book Description
"Throughout my career, there have been other 'basics' I have constantly returned to, the basics of the golf swing. Whenever I miss-hit a shot or notice a swing problem, I return to these basics of swing, stance, grip, and alignment. Too many of us complicate our golf swings with involved theories when good golf actually is based on a few simple principles. In "A Woman's Golf Game," some of the fellow players I most respect will relate these simple and basic theories to you. I think they will help you play better golf."-- from the Foreword by Kathy Whitworth Nancy Lopez, Amy Alcott, Beth Daniel, Sally Little, Hollis Stacy, Sandra Palmer, Judy Rankin--never before have so many top women golfers shared their secrets to playing superior golf. Fully illustrated, "A Woman's Guide to Golf" details the entire technique of the game from tee to green. It takes the beginner through the early stages of learning and on to the game's finer points, club by club. The instruction rests on the foundation of sound swing technique and also covers grip, stance, rhythm and tempo, chipping, pitching, putting, sand shots, and awkward lies. Special chapters on the left-handed golfer, equipment especially designed for women golfers, and golf rules and etiquette make this book the most up-to-date, comprehensive manual for women golfers available. How to choose the right club, how to get the most from practice, and how to add distance to your shots are just some of the areas addressed in "A Woman's Golf Game." For those who are just taking up the sport or who are interested in refining parts of the game, or who as low handicappers need the pros' analytical advice on sharpening specific skills--this invaluablebook has helpful information for every kind of woman golfer.

Pages : 146
Book Description
If you enjoyed Sheryl Sandberg's Lean In you'll love Golfing In Heels. A working woman's guide to discovering how men have utilized the game of golf as a way to grow not only business relationships, but nurture their need for socialization and relaxation. Women don't always give themselves permission to engage in activities that fulfill the triad of life and work integration: business networking, socialization and time to encourage creativity that benefit them both personally and professionally. These days, women's lives are a balancing act between work and home, and the feeling that something was left undone haunts their subconscious and produces an overpowering guild to say "yes" to others and "no" to the ones that need it most: themselves.

Historical Dictionary of Golf
Author: Bill Mallon
Publisher: Scarecrow Press
ISBN: 0810874652
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 865
Book Description
Golf has been called the greatest of all games, but it has also been derided by none other than Mark Twain as nothing more than a good walk spoiled. Traditional teaching holds that golf originated in Scotland around the 15th century. However, there is historical evidence of games similar to golf being played in the low countries of Europe back in the 13th century. Over the many centuries of golf's evolution, the balls used have changed greatly, as have the clubs, the holes, the courses, and the entire game itself. The Historical Dictionary of Golf presents a comprehensive history of the game through a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, photos, and over 300 cross-referenced dictionary entries on places, teams, terminology, and people, including Arnold Palmer, Greg Norman, Lee Trevino, Jack Nicklaus, Annika Sörenstam, Lorena Ochoa, Phil Mickelson, and, of course, Tiger Woods. Appendixes of the members of the World Golf Hall of Fame, the Major Championships of Golf, the International Team Events, and the Professional Tour Awards are also included.
