Think back to the first time you stepped onto a golf course. Surely you had some interest in the game before you started to play, but it's only in feeling the club in your hand and watching the ball soar high above you that you are enraptured. Something about that first time makes you fall in love.

If you remember that captivating moment, then this collection is for you! Golfer and poet Jim Kintner distills forty years of golf matches into lyrical, fun-loving verse in these sixty poems and forty illustrations.

In one poem, a boy receives a set of golf clubs from his father. At first he's disappointed, only to discover a great love for the green as he hits his first shot. In another, a golfer is stuck with a partner from hell-literally. The devil himself shows up on the course with a thirty-six handicap! With odes to Bobby Jones and Horton Smith, among others, Kintner also pays homage to the golfing greats.

Whether it's the yips or an albatross; a pitch, lob, and flop; or even a chip, chunk, and skull, Kintner takes the terminology of the game and elevates it to an art form.
