Synopsis
The world of golf is rife with unexplainable happenings that seemingly defy the rules of gravity and logic: there are those badly hit shots last seen disappearing into a grove of trees, only to be rediscovered on the putting green. Players have learned to lay blame on the Golf Gods, and go about their rounds. There are, however, the other stories - tales of apparitions gliding across a course, unexplained noises emanating from uninhabited rooms of a clubhouse, or the phantom golfer who appears out of nowhere to play a shot and vanishes just as suddenly.

From the Back Cover
The world of golf is rife with unexplainable happenings, such as badly hit shots last seen disappearing into a grove of trees, only to be rediscovered on the putting green. Players have learned to lay blame on "the Golf Gods," and go about their rounds. And then there are the other stories: apparitions gliding across a course or the phantom golfer who appears out of nowhere to play a shot and vanishes just as suddenly. Haunted Golf is a compendium of tales of the restless spirits that haunt some of golf's famous locales as well as its lesser-known locales--from the clubhouses of New England to the fairways of San Francisco and the links of Great Britain. It will have you running for the golf cart as you read about: - The ghost of a murdered woman who haunts the seventh hole at Victoria Golf Club in British Columbia- The cadre of ghosts at the Otesaga Hotel in upstate New York, overlooking one of the finest resort courses in the East- The spine-chilling remnants of bygone days at the Home of Golf, St. Andrews, Scotland

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The world of golf is rife with unexplainable happenings that seemingly defy the rules of gravity and logic: There are those badly hit shots last seen disappearing into a grove of trees, only to be rediscovered on the putting green. And what of those perfectly struck drives that rocketed into the crisp blue beyond never to be seen again? Players have learned to lay blame on "the Golf Gods," and go about their rounds. There are, however, the other stories-tales of apparitions gliding across a course, unexplained noises emanating from uninhabited rooms of a clubhouse, or the phantom golfer who appears out of nowhere to play a shot and vanishes just as suddenly. Haunted Golf explores such stories from the clubhouses of New England to the fairways of New Orleans and the links of Great Britain. Bringing readers on a journey that will enlighten, entertain, and send shivers, this book also delves into the history and flavor of the locations, painting evocative portraits of the courses and the communities. It includes a foreword by English golfer and golf analyst Peter Oosterhuis. Ghosts, hauntings, and other strange happenings on golf courses around the world. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780762750702
