Book Subtitle | The Crazy Things That Golfer's Say |
Book Description | With thousands of copies sold already this is an ideal download for days when the course is closed. It is also a great paperback and even an ideal little present for the golfer in your life. A book for golfers and those who know a golfer. Golf speak discusses some of the common phrases and cliches that golfers say every day and then pokes a bit of fun at the real meaning or what a quick witted playing partner could say in reply! It is a funny look at 'golf speak' exposing the ancient and modern language, while reinforcing the need to maintain etiquette and decorum. A book packed with phrases said every day on golf courses all over the world after tee shots, shots from the fairway, recovery shots and on or around the green. A highly entertaining book filled with excuses and commentary said by golfers to explain why their golf shot went wrong. All new 'revised edition' which addressed the debate over apostrophe inclusion or omission that erupted . No matter because the intention of the book was always a bit of fun, not an entry for novel of the decade! Warning, the spelling is english uk not us so no 'spell check one star reviews' please; oh and the humour is very british and in turn sarcastic! |
About the Author | Chris Gibson is an author of a number of satirical books, and after playing the game and speaking fluent 'golf speak' himself for over 35 years the temptation to write a book was too great to resist. Aside from still trying to get better at the game, and failing miserably, he has taken solace in the social side and the banter that goes 'golf glove in hand' and provides humour with the silly things that seem to keep coming out of his mouth! Away from golf he continues to work as a franchise consultant and author of semi serious business books too. |
