Summary of Golf Rules Plain & Simple

"The game's big lie is that the rules of golf are simple. The actual fact is that they are complex and confusing, which is why millions of earnest amateurs unwittingly violate them every time they play. PGA Tour official Mark Russell is one of golf's best at making complicated rules decisions clear and understandable to the best players in the world, and now he's presenting his common sense approach in plain drawings and plainer English. If you want to truly understand the rules and confidently play by them, read this book."
-- Jaime Diaz, Sport Illustrated


As befitting a royal and ancient game, golf's rules are complicated and often confusing. On the PGA Tour, players have tournament officials to help keep them on their toes. Those not fortunate enough to be on the Tour are left to the mercy of the official Rules of Golf--a fine book, but somewhat bogged down in legalese. To remedy this situation, veteran golf writer John Andrisani teamed up with PGA Tour tournament official Mark Russell to create Golf Rules Plain and Simple--a plain-spoken guide to dealing with 37 common rule violations. Some of the rules seem too strict for the weekend duffer (are you really going to penalize your opponent two strokes for asking you what club you used?), but committed golfers will want to abide by them anyway. After all, golf is a game of honor. With its compact size and durable covers, Golf Rules Plain and Simple is the perfect addition to any golf bag. --Sunny Delaney
