I always associated golf with senior guys who just enjoy silence; however, this book seems to portray quite the opposite, and it's quite refreshing to see it through a different lense.

Thank you for your great review on "Krazy Tales From the World of Golf" by Gail K. Holden. I'm not into the golf sport but because you wrote about the humor that goes on in the ninety chapters of this book, I decided to put it on my shelf to read. Congratulations to the author for BOTD.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting story about a group of hockey players who decide to enter into the world of golf, but things are not going to be easy. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

This sounds like a fun book. I don't play golf but I guess it could be interesting to follow people that decided to learn it.

I've only seen people golf in movies, I'm sure this book will teach me a lot about playing golf. I'm adding it to my shelf right away because I love that game so much and I want to learn how to play.

Golf, on its own, tends to be boring. However, Gail was able to tell real stories in a funny yet life-impacting way. Even if the reader doesn't know much about golf, they may like it. Thanks for the review!

The review provides valuable insights for potential readers. As it has highlighted every part of the book. The book sounds rather entertaining read for those whointo golf or simply likes a good laugh. I love reading funny stories. But I'm not familiar with this game, so I might not enjoy this book as much. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Excellent review!

This both was and wasn't what I expected from the book cover - I think the graphics through me, but it works. The book covers 90 true, funny stories of the adventure of a group of Spokane hockey players on an annual golf trip.

Put a bunch of former hockey players on a bus for an away golf trip and chaos is bound to happen. Boys will be boys regardless of their ages. This sounds like a fun book to read. I am adding it to my bookshelves. :techie-studyinggray:

'Official Review: Krazy Tales from the World of Golf' by Gail K. Holden has a potent introduction. It serves as a good guide for readers unfamiliar with the game of Golf. The point that the book chronicles the events that occur during the traditional sojourn to Montana is worth mentioning in the review. We would find the book composed of funny narratives. Also, as mentioned in the review, the book exposes the reader to the inner sanctuary of activities that herald the game of golf. Learning that the stories in the book impart lessons to readers was great!
