Sinopsis
Golf has rules. Weekend golf has survival instincts.
Golf's Ultimate Guide to Respectable Cheating is an illustrated satirical field guide for recreational golfers who love the game, value their friendships, and occasionally prefer emotional survival to strict accountability.
Mark Goldman, Ross Greenburg, and Michael Greenburg turn the unofficial habits of friendly golf into a complete comic philosophy. Mulligans become self-issued pardons. Gimmes protect pace and dignity. Point of Entry offers relief from water, woods, and inconvenient facts. Safety Drops preserve life and limb. And the scorecard finally receives the tool it has always needed: a pencil with an eraser.
Inside you will discover:
- The philosophy of Respectable Cheating
- The birth and proper use of the Mullie
- Point of Entry and Safety Drop calculations
- Short grass, sandy pits, out-of-bounds reasoning, and strategic amnesia
- Responsible slamming, shelling, and other forms of emotional maintenance
- Scorekeeping techniques that protect friendships and the human spirit
Part parody, part illustrated rulebook, and part love letter to the weekend golfer, this book is a memorable gift for golf buddies, dads, husbands, grandfathers, retirees, tournament players, and anyone who has ever said, "That one did not count."
The official rules protect the game. These rules protect the people playing it.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Owens, Lacey Ilustrador. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Golf is difficult enough without allowing the scorecard to ruin a perfectly good afternoon. Golf's Ultimate Guide to Respectable Cheating is an illustrated satirical field guide for recreational golfers who love the game but cannot always live with the reality of their score.Mark Goldman, Ross Greenburg, and Michael Greenburg transform the unofficial habits of friendly golf into a complete comic philosophy. Mulligans become self-issued pardons. Point of Entry provides relief from water, woods, and inconvenient facts. Safety Drops protect golfers from hazards no recreational round is worth confronting. Gimmes preserve pace, dignity, and dinner plans. A pencil with an eraser restores order to the scorecard.Through original illustrations, definitions, stories, and named rules, the book develops the philosophy of Respectable Cheating: small acts of narrative editing and emotional maintenance performed in the service of larger happiness. The result is part parody, part illustrated rulebook, and a warm tribute to every weekend golfer who has ever taken a breakfast ball, improved a lie, or announced, 'I would have made it anyway.'Designed for adult general-trade readers, the book is a memorable choice for golf buddies, fathers, husbands, grandfathers, retirees, tournament participants, club members, golf trips, and the golfer who already owns everything except an honest scorecard. It is not an official rules manual or advice for competitive play. It is a celebration of the negotiations, selective memories, and shared laughter that keep a friendly round enjoyable.
