During our fifty years designing courses we have always tried to wed the best of old and new. Our first
experiences playing St. Andrews Old Course and many classic venues in Scotland, Ireland and England
grounded us in a style of design that favors nature’s unpredictability. We fell in love with the eccentricities
that dominate early layouts like Prestwick, Nairn, Cruden Bay, Royal Dornoch and Royal County Down,
and the work of Old Tom Morris, James Braid, Harry S. Colt and Donald Ross. Some of the par threes
we saw and studied remain favorites — the fifteenth at Cruden Bay, North Berwick’s original Redan, the

“Golf . . . is a sport in which the whole American family can participate--fathers and mothers, sons and daughters alike. It offers healthy respite from daily toil, refreshment of body and mind.”
--President Dwight D. Eisenhower
On January 24, 1953, four days after his inauguration, the New York Times reported that President Dwight D. Eisenhower had been spotted on the White House lawn practicing his short irons in the direction of the Washington Monument. This image of “The Golfing General” was one that the American public quickly became accustomed to, as Eisenhower is said to have played nearly 800 rounds during...

Welcome to the often fascinating, sometimes frustrating, and almost
always fun game of golf. It is a sport that can be played for a lifetime,
yet can never be mastered completely. Some call it a good walk spoiled,
but they probably have never experienced the thrill of hitting a ball high
into the air in exactly the right direction, or the pleasure of making a
long putt for a birdie. Doing either of those things takes a fair bit of
learning, since golf is a complicated game. But put forth a patient effort,
and positive results will eventually follow. This book gives you the
basics needed to learn...

I was a passionate (if terrible) golfer when I wrote Fifty Places to Play Golf Before You Die.
In the four years since that book was published, my love for the game has only increased.
I’m still terrible on the course (though not quite as terrible), but I believe that the increased
understanding of the nuances of golf course design—and golf travel—that I’ve accumulated
since working on that book have enabled me to better appreciate all the things that
combine to make a memorable golf experience.
Thus it was with great enthusiasm that I embraced the chance to write another golf
book—Fifty More Places to Play Golf...

The papers contained within this book were presented at the World Scientific
Congress of Golf held at the University of St Andrews from 4th to 8th July, 1994.
The papers and their authors represent a wide diversity not only of sciences
themselves, but also of vocations—including golfers who also happen to be
scientists, scientists who see interesting applications in golf, scientifically
minded coaches and professional scientists working for equipment
manufacturers. The common element is a burning interest in the game and the
desire to find out more and establish hard evidence on their particular aspects of
it....

There is endless animated debate in famous clubhouses—at Augusta during
the Masters, St. Andrews during Royal and Ancient Golf Club meetings,
indeed at all major championship venues: if a foursome of Bobby
Jones, Ben Hogan, Jack Nicklaus, and Tiger Woods were to play today, who
would be the champion of champions? The proposition would be even
more intriguing were they to compete on the same terms of modern, wonderfully
conditioned courses, using the latest aerodynamic golf balls and
rocket-shafted titanium clubs....

The fact that this book is now in your hands suggests that you are
aware of golf’s addictive nature. While it may be clichéd to boast of
golf’s varied playing arena or the merits of the handicapping system,
these are undeniably two of the attributes that make golf special.
But it is the physical act of playing, along with the mind games,
that is so compelling. Even on a bad day, there may be a glimpse of
magic—the experience of hitting a great shot or holing a long
putt—that lifts your spirits and keeps you coming back for more.
It is this “high” that fuels the desire to...

On August 10, 1994 at about 3:30 in the afternoon, I was driving
to Highland Meadows Golf Club in Sylvania, Ohio. Our then 20-
year-old son, Kevin Michael O’Toole McHugh, was with me.
Highland Meadows was not a new experience for either of us.
Kevin had played there many times, including in junior golf tournaments.
His sisters, Kathy and Lisa, had both worked at the Club.
Kathy was the Club’s office manager for several years and Lisa
worked in the dining room and the office while going to college....

Who’s the greatest golfer of all time? When my friend Elliott Kalb asked me that question,
I answered that the greatest 18-hole showdown would be Jack Nicklaus and
Ben Hogan in their prime. Man, that would be some match, wouldn’t it?
I don’t think you can ever look past what Jack accomplished over the years. I was at
Augusta in 1986, getting ready for the presentation downstairs, when Nicklaus put on
his charge. I have never heard a roar in Amen Corner like the one I heard that day nearly
20 years ago....

This book is first of all about golf course architecture. It
begins with the writings of the earliest architects of golf
courses because their books are not easily come by and
the similarity of their philosophy and ours is of
significance. Having mostly the same aims, their results
were noticeably different but this is probably of less
significance, given the infinite variety of their sites and
local variations in interpreting their instructions.

How many of you would agree with Pat’s statement? I think it’s
safe to say that most people have used golf to assist them in
some business opportunity.
The premise of Business Golf is to show you how a simple round
of golf, when planned and played properly, can be one of the most valuable
relationship-building tools you have at your disposal, in a world that
is more competitive than ever before. Whether you are an accomplished
golfer or a beginner, the insights, interviews, and techniques offered in
this book will help you understand your playing partners better, and in so
doing, you will learn to play the game...

This book doesn’t explain the Rules of
Golf. Many other books have done that,
with varying degrees of success. Instead,
it translates them, faithfully, into plain English.
It makes them readily accessible to a
wide readership—from seasoned players
to beginners, not to mention fans of the
game. It doesn’t “dumb down” the rules. Not at all.
Rather, it employs Albert Einstein’s principle about expressing
ideas as simply as possible without oversimplifying
them.

In this edition we have added many new resorts, including some
in Canada, the Caribbean, Mexico, as well as the United States.
Please keep in mind that the rates quoted for the Canadian destinations
are in Canadian dollars. Rates for all other locations, including
Mexico, are in US dollars.
Clearly, some resorts and golf courses are a notch or two above the
others; we have frequently been asked which resorts were our favorites.
The list below gives what we consider to be the top 50 resorts.
The list is in alphabetical order and does not try to indicate who is
number one and who is number 50. It is...

I don’t know that the details really matter all that
much. I imagine it’s happened to anybody who’s ever
been foolish enough to allow this game to matter to
the extent we all do.
I am in a slump. I’d have to say it’s considerable, although
who has ever been in a slump they didn’t think
was considerable? This one is especially vexing because
it’s the “throw your clubs in the lake, never gonna play
again” variety. But then again, if you play this game, I
imagine you fall into one of two categories when it comes
to this type of slump: either you’ve had one (at least one),
or you’re...

Writing a book about Jack Nicklaus, golf ’s leading major
championship winner, is not easy. The reason: Nicklaus
knows his swing and shot-making game well and has written about
it in books, most notably Golf My Way. Therefore, taking the challenge
head-on to analyze this great golfer’s technique and point out
secrets of his setup and swing that he was never aware of,
or chose not to share, was quite a daring task. Nevertheless, I
approached this assignment confidently, based on my experience
as a former golf teacher and senior editor of instruction for GOLF
Magazine. I also knew going in that I had one defense: no player,
not even...

Mark Twain commented on golf by saying, “it is a good walk
spoiled.” You might gather that he was not a golfer. You’d be wrong.
He was, but like most, he was continually frustrated by the game.
Certainly there are those days when “it is a good walk spoiled,” but
thankfully there are moments when it is “a good flight made better.”
I’m passionate about three things in life: flying, golfing, and dining.
Those of you who have read The $100 Hamburger: A Guide to
Pilots’ Favorite Fly-In Restaurants or visited the companion website

dining spots....

There are hundreds of books explaining how to play golf,
and this book is not one of them. We are concerned here
with the science, rather than the art, of playing golf.
It is quite understandable when people ask—what is
the science of golf?—because it is not immediately obvious.
The reason is that much of what happens in golf is
not seen directly by the players. For example, the impact
of the club on the ball occurs in less than a thousandth of
a second and this is so brief that a proper understanding
of hits and mis-hits has to come from physics. Again, we
cannot see the airfl ow...

For centuries, golf was considered a game in which the royal,
elite, and privileged participated in a leisurely fashion (or so they
thought). Then came advances in golf course design and golf
equipment, which increased the demands for physical skill and brought
out the likes of Snead, Hogan, Player, Palmer, and Nicklaus. These were
probably the first signs that golf had changed from more of a game to
a sport, but it wasn’t until this past decade that Tiger Woods’s influence
and domination in professional golf made it clear that fitness, mental
focus, nutrition, performance, and golf health are fundamental to playing
the sport to the best of one’s...

As a lifelong golfer, I am honored to be writing a book
about the game I have loved for many years and the sport
that has been a binding thread in my family for five decades.
I have always been an avid athlete, playing many sports, with
a consistent commitment to physical fitness. Years ago I discovered
yoga by playing a round with a new friend, a woman who
was a five handicap golfer. At the time I was playing to a twentyfour
handicap and I wanted what she had! Oddly enough,
though she was a marathon runner and avid golfer, my friend’s
yoga experience had a dramatic effect...

If you are like most people who will read this, you have already hired
a golf instructor, taken lessons to improve your swing, purchased
the latest weighted club, and perhaps even implemented golf handicap–
tracker software. You may have learned all about the mental game of golf
and envisioned yourself walking down the fairway with Tiger Woods
after sinking a hole in one. After all that, you know the mechanics of the
swing, and you understand that your mind has something to do with
how well you do (or don’t do) on the course. Yet you still feel that you
are not playing as well as you know...

“Scyoose m’ sar! A roond a gowf us s’posta tek thuree oohers! Nay
sex!”
If I understand the shouting of this incensed Scottish fellow correctly—
and there’s always the outside chance I’ve completely mistaken
his livid burr for an enthusiastically warm welcome—what
he means to tell me is that a proper game of golf here in the land
where the sport began is supposed to take only three hours to play.
Not four. Not five. And for the love of Old Tom Morris, certainly
not six!

In October of 1860, officials of Scotland’s Prestwick Golf Club extended an invitation to
the 30 or so golf clubs then operating in Scotland and England to send up to three “respectable
caddies” to compete in a golf tournament. Eight professional golfers entered. Willie Park, Sr.,
went around the 12-hole course three times in one day in 174 strokes to become the first winner
of what would become The Open Championship.
The next year, officials opened the event to amateurs. Ten professionals and eight amateurs
entered. “Old Tom” Morris won with a score of 163. The Open Championship truly had begun.
In 1895 the United States Golf...

Can you learn to be a good leader by playing golf? Believe it or
not, you can! There are fundamentals and rules in both
endeavors that must be followed if you expect to ever keep up
with the competition, let alone beat it. There are also right and
wrong ways to perform a particular activity that can make the
difference between winning and losing. Leaders and golfers
must have perseverance and patience if they are to achieve
success. Some golfers and managers never learn the importance
of those virtues, however....

Whenever I explain to golfers (or to nongolfers, for that matter)
that I’m writing a book about golf etiquette, invariably they reply,
“Have I got a story for you!” Numerous golfers have regaled me
with tales of clubs broken, or tossed into trees never to come out,
or vanished to the bottom of a pond. One told me of her experience
driving a cart through a bunker, while another recounted
the marvelous story of two eagles being scored on the same hole
by people playing in the same group. Still another described a
similar situation that occurred during a tournament, when two
competitors each had a hole in one...

My many visits to Australia were made much more enjoyable
by my friendship with Phil Tresidder. Phil was a press man who
covered it as it was. He wasn’t a sensationalist and he didn’t
manufacture things. I have so many great memories of Phil and of
Australia.
I well remember playing the Augusta course with Phil the
morning after my last US Masters win in 1978, and in turn
playing several rounds at his home course, Bonnie Doon, in
Sydney. I used to meet him at various golf tournaments around
the world and enjoyed finding out what was happening in
Australia. I just love Australia and still miss it terribly....

The wildly undulating, sparsely vegetated, sandy fields of Scotland,
between high tide and higher land, are known as the links
or as linksland. Here a game involving a club, a ball, and a distant hole
developed. The unpredictable, undulating terrain added excitement,
while the dramatic surroundings awed players and probably contributed
to their sense of well-being. Together, terrain and surroundings
helped shape the magical game of golf, the game that mirrors life itself.

Hall of Fame golfer Ben Hogan once remarked that golf is 100
percent mental and 100 percent physical, and the two factions
of golf cannot and should not be separated. I agree. By its very
nature, golf is both physical and mental. It also has a strong
emotional component that makes it the toughest and greatest
game ever created. On the professional golf tours, what separates
winning golfers is the strength of their mental game and
emotional resiliency. This is why a growing number of amateur
and professional players have been seeking the assistance
of sport psychologists and mental coaches to help them develop
mental toughness....
