Description

Golf Foreplay is the perfect guide for novices who need to know the basic rules, etiquette, and fundamentals of the game. This entertaining book helps get readers up-to-speed on all the fine points that one usually has to learn by trial and error – or (if one is lucky) from a golf buddy willing to share his or her hard-won knowledge. More than the standard "rules and etiquette" book, Golf Foreplay also contains in-depth coverage regarding equipment, accessories, courses, tournaments, and golf terms. Listings of the golf courses, players, golf magazines, and golf movies every golfer should know round out the information included in this engaging introduction to the game.  With his lively, humorous approach, lawyer, radio personality and avid golfer Ken Altshuler fills readers in on all the basic information that every rookie golfer needs to know: from tee markers, to order of putting, to what not to wear, to how to play fair on the fairway.  A comprehensive roundup of golf terms, as well as fun golf trivia makes this title the perfect complement to the golfer’s shelf of instructional books.  

Publishers Weekly Review

Mar 21, 2011 – Altshuler takes a rollicking trip across the course, mixing a lot of fun into a long list detailing the dos and don'ts of golf play. Such as, from Golf Lingo You Must Know, "...anything over a quadruple bogey is called a ‘this is not my day, so I will be in the clubhouse drinking Scotch and watching the latest PGA tournament.'" There are lists of courses and players "with whom you need to be familiar if you intend to distract your fellow golfers." Altshuler is quick with advice; when referring to the size of ball markers, he notes how embarrassing it is if you "need your partners to help you find the marker." Equipment, from golf covers to fairway woods to sunglasses is examined, and a history of the composition of a golf ball is surprisingly intriguing. Even hazard markers get lengthy explanations, and a segment on handicaps is thorough, although not for the mathematically challenged. Golf jokes tee off each chapter and range from amusing to side-spitting. Despite all the laughs, this is a useful book that looks seriously at the game. Photos.
