A Tiny Book so you don't make Big Mistakes

This is a book about the do's and don'ts of behaviour on the golf course and in the clubhouse. There is guidance for every situation you could imagine. This tiny book fits nicely into a leather cover so you can keep it in your golf bag. "There can be few things more irritating, and at times even infuritating, for a golfer than to find his game ruined by thougtless and ignorant behavior by other players on the course." Simple things like picking up your broken tee sound logical, but then again there are still people who toss trash from their cars. So, you just never know. Very Matter-of-Fact style. This is just what is expected. Letting faster players move ahead of your group, being aware of time-saving-tips (like removing gloves while walking) will keep the game moving smoothly along. The section on taking care of the course was informative. Simple things like raking away footprints helps the next golfer if their golf ball happens to rest in the exact spot where you just walked. Helpful tips like protecting your set of golf clubs while travelling abroad and taking the proper clothes for various weather conditions helps to protect you and your investment. ~The Rebecca Review
