From the Red Tees: Help, Hope, and Humor for the Women on the Green
Celeste Palermo
In today's world, it seems that men grow up playing golf. By the time they pass through adolescence, most have learned the rules, etiquette, and terminology of golf through experience. Many women, however, lack the basic knowledge of the game and are short of playing experience on the fairways and greens. But many women today have taken up the game and are playing from the red tees with their husbands, friends, or business associates.
For those women who lack experience, getting into the "swing" of golf no longer needs to be scary or stressful. From the Red Tees is the book currently missing from the bookstore shelves, pro shops, and golf stores. It is packed with need-to-know tips, basic golf etiquette, the rules of the game, and humorous stories and golf anecdotes. Aspiring golfers will appreciate the wealth of information written for women by a woman who's been over par and out of bounds on many occasions.
By acknowledging the vulnerability, frustration, and humiliation typically felt by those new to the sport, From the Red Tees reminds golfers that insecurities and mistakes are normal and that everyone needs a mulligan now and then. A concise volume for quick reference, it also is small enough to fit into a purse or golf bag for continued confidence while on the links.
With From the Red Tees, women no longer need to spend large sums of money on expensive and sometimes intimidating golf lessons. Fun and helpful rather than technical and overwhelming, the book will have even the most novice female golfer driving the fairway and shooting for par.
