 Golf has so much more to offer than hushed fairways and perfectly-trimmed greens. For golfers with open and slightly-twisted minds, there are also blue gnomes that read putts, ghosts with golf tips, and witches you never, ever want to play through.
Tongue firmly in cheek, Dave Donelson tells some of the strangest stories in golf. Like the tale of the grudge match at Pebble Beach between Superman and Batman. You’ll meet the golf pro who sold his soul to the devil and the werewolf who makes a run at the Grand Slam. And don’t forget the guy who can cure your slice if you’ll only let him bite your neck.
Weird Golf will help you push aside your long-drive ego, peel back your putter-shaking id, and expose the goofy golfer deep inside.
