THE CLASSIC BOOK OF GOLF WISDOM FROM THE GAME'S GREATEST TEACHER The Little Red Book has become required reading for all players and fans of the game of golf, from beginners to seasoned pros. The legendary Harvey Penick, who began his golfing career as a caddie in Austria, Texas, at the age of eight, worked with an amazing array of champions over the course of nearly a century, dispensing invaluable wisdom to golfers of every level. Penick simplifies the technical jargon of other instructional books and communicates the very essence of the game, and his Little Red Book is full of inspiration and homespun wisdom that reflects at once his great love of golf as well as his great talent for teaching. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

home for the holidays, i found my copy of this book dad had given me when it was first published in 1993, i believe. i've probably not even looked at it in well over 10 years; but i immediately read the whole thing in one sitting and it is just as wonderful now as it was when i was a kid.when i first read it all those years ago, i'd been stuck in all sorts of technical instruction from the time i first picked up a club when i was 7 or 8 years old. at the time; i was a pretty good junior golfer but a buddy of mine was a bit better and all i wanted to do was beat him on the course. it was this book that really opened my eyes to the true heart of the game. i simply forgot all the intensely technical garbage and focused purely on just swinging the club - "clipping the tee" as harvey had put it. within a little more than a year, i was nearly scratch and a starter on my high school golf team. and, yep, became a fierce competitor with my buddy. it was also around that time i beat my dad for the first time.this book totally made me see the game in a different way that's stuck with me ever since.if you want a bunch of technical garbage that forces you into ridiculous positions that really do not, nor ever will, actually help your game - do not bother with this book. you'll be sorely disappointed. plenty of money has been made by so-called teachers convincing people there's more to swinging a golf club than just SWINGING A GOLF CLUB and most other books (one notable exception being tom watson's strategic golf - a great book about actually playing the game and focusing very little on swing instruction ) are no different.fact is - it really is that simple. harvey knew this and it's that knowledge that makes this book so great.
