‘How About a Little Action’ (Paperback Book) by Rodger Hess and Thomas Strauss
When professional gamblers in Las Vegas hit the links for a friendly round of golf, they naturally have a little something going on the side to make it more interesting. Wagers of 0,000 a round are not unheard of. Such stakes may not be representative of most weekend foursomes, but it is probably safe to say that few social rounds of golf are played solely for exercise, companionship and glory. How About A Little Action is a 40 page paperback book listing the most common betting games played for enjoyment and profit. This book is not a comprehensive list; however, it covers all the major games and a sampling of the minor ones. Each game is described clearly and concisely. It is the perfect size to fit in your golf bag and use on the course as a guide to games and rules. Length: 40 pages.

‘At The Turn’ (Hardcover Book) by Steve Eubanks
When Steve Eubanks began to write the book At the Turn, he always thought of the professional golfers as any other group of working professionals, not much different from the NFL or NBA. During the time of researching and writing this book his opinion changed, ‘By the standards of today’s modern athlete, professional golfers are not normal: they are extraordinary.’ In two-and-a-half astonishing years, professional golf was reborn. Formerly dismissed as an elite, white, middle-aged, rich man’s game, golf has rocketed into the mainstream to become a multicultural, multibillion-dollar sport, with young, hotshot athlete to rival those in the NBA and to win the hearts of networks and merchandisers everywhere. This is the true story of a game’s seemingly miraculous transformation of pro golf. With detailed coverage of the rising of David Duval, Sergio Garcia, and of course, Tiger Woods, Steve Eubanks grips you with backbiting and chaos at the British Open, along with backstage power strugg
