Many have never held a golf club in their hands and still plan to venture onto the big green course. Many simply want to become good golfers and improve their playing technique. Experienced golfer Gary McCord takes readers, regardless of their current skill level, to a new level of ability with this book. "Golf for Dummies" outlines the learning process step by step on the way to becoming a true golfer. The book also covers the surrounding aspects that readers should know beyond the usual rules: from golf rules to equipment, as well as tips on how to find a golf club where they feel comfortable. From the first grip on the club to basic techniques, playing in bunkers, and other particularly challenging conditions. A small glossary of typical golf terms rounds out the book.
