Golf for Dummies

David Morgan - Monday, 12 December, 2005

The 'Dummies' series (from publishers Wiley & Sons) isn't just about languages, crafts, computers, finance and hobbies. It now includes 'Golf for Dummies' written by Gary McCord and Alicia Harney. If you haven't seen a 'Dummies' book, then head for the black and orange spines on the bookshelves of your local. bookshop, and pick this book up for a present for any golfer!

McCord will be known to golfers from US TV coverage of the PGA Tour and he is funny, irreverent, charismatic and very knowledgeable - all of the above in spades. He has thrown the proverbial 'kitchen sink' into this books and it works at every level.

It covers everything a golfer would need to enjoy the game and to improve their swings and course management, all with the wit of McCord to guide them towards the scores they dream of.. As a complete golf guide, this is excellent, matching the quality that the 'Dummies' series is known for by everyone from people at school and college through to those who want to become financial experts.

This new UK edition will be appreciated by any standard of golfer. Harney has added some course reviews of both favourite Championship venues across Europe plus course that are great for beginners. There are glossaries, great pictures, mini tips, reminders, and 'Gary Says' notes where McCord just simply says it like it is - great book!
