Harvey Penick's little red book and little green book.

reminds you of what is important in life...and transcends to golf.
his books really made me appreciate the short game, also to see two of his star students Ben Crenshaw and Tom Kite , score and conduct themselves on the golf course is great reinforcement.

My greatest lesson from his books and videos is to use the lowest lofted club to get the ball on the green, EXCELLENT advice for us 20 to 5 handicap golfers, got me from a 12 to a 7 handicap alone.

Excellent read for golf and life...." Life consists of a lot of minor annoyances(sp?)... and few matters of real consequence"

also as he told a young and cocky Tom Kite "You are who you are...not what you do"

Final Rounds by James Dodson.

A golf writer and his dad have long talked about a trip to Scotland, but never found the time.

They finally make plans but then his dad is diagnosed with cancer. They go anyway.

Beautiful book about fathers & sons and life and golf and how the three interact and what you can learn about one from the other.

One of the top 5 books I've ever read, and by far the best golf book I've ever read.

    • https://www.usga.org/content/usga/home-page/get-handicap.html I think they mostly took it over in-house. I still have an eClub but we mostly use it for juniors, volunteers, etc.
    • I was thinking of finally getting a real handicap.   I've kept scores and calculated an unofficial handicap for many years.   When I went to the Golf Association of Michigan website, I didn't see any virtual clubs.   I emailed GAM, and they responded that the only option was the clubs listed, which did not include virtual clubs.   Are virtual clubs no longer eligible for membership in the USGA?
    • Day 8: 5/14/2025 Played 9 holes today for the Wednesday Night League.  I played probably the worst I've played in a long time. In fairness, the course was pretty water-logged and the grass was super high and super thick everywhere. 
    • Day 226 - 2025-05-14 Went downtown to practice after editing some podcasts, going to the gym, doing some Evolvr…
    • Adding in, feeling like I purposely try to smash the clubhead into the ground 2 ft behind the ball. Just an arms down swing feel visual.
