Description
Forget the plaid pants, the white-fringed shoes, the silly caps — the game of golf has come a long way! And it’s experiencing unprecedented popularity with kids. This informative book introduces them to the basics of golf, as well as to the origins and history of the game, golf equipment and etiquette, types of courses, and stars of the past, present and future.
This is not simply a how-to book, but an engaging and informative look at an increasingly kid-friendly sport. The comprehensive format will appeal to young golfers just starting out and to those already familiar with the game.
