There
has never been a golfer's book quite like this one. Birdie
recounts the personal golfing pilgrimages of its authors
through Scotland. It shows, using color photographs, how
and where they discovered the original spirit of golf, and
explains why the Scottish links have been so irresistibly
seductive to players for hundreds of years |
| You
will discover why the spirit of the game in Scotland today
remains the same as it was hundreds of years ago, and why
real Scotsmen don't keep scorecards, except in tournaments.
And you will learn how selected Zen Buddhist techniques not
only epitomize this spirit, but now their use will change
your whole mental attitude towards the game and make playing
"Zen Golf" at any age a special experience. |

Each
chapter, or "Hole" in Birdie is named for a Scottish
golf course actually played by the authors, and describes
one or more Zen techniques that will free the player from
all anxieties that have been inhibiting his own game. The
photographs and the text give a feel for the atmosphere
of each golf course, and show how that particular course
facilitates an understanding of what the authors have named
"A Zen Approach to Golf." |
