Summary: No golf mysticism found here; just damn funny writing
Comment: This is a fabulously funny book by David Feherty. Yes, the guy is glib and delightful on television. But who knew he would translate so well to writing? The guy has a real talent - I hope this work is just the first of many.
A couple of items worth noting:
1) There's no "golf in the kingdom"-like mysticism found here like in so many paens to the sport these days. You get the sense right away that Feherty will have none of that [stuff].
2) This book may set the record for the most varied and colorful euphemisms describing the male genitalia.
3) This book may set the record for the most varied and colorful euphemisms describing flatulence and excrement.
4) This book - despite its sophomoric and crude humor - is amazingly literate and quite politically correct (wait'll you get a load of Uncle Dickie's posse).
5) This book is more non-golf than golf. Hats off to the author for showing he can be humorous regardless of the subject.
...and you've gotta love any writer that steals a joke from Billy Connolly & then footnotes the guy when he uses it. Great touch.

Summary: Laugh out loud
Comment: If you think David Feherty is amusing with his golf commentary on television, you will love this book. I couldn't stop reading it. Definitely one for the golf library!

Summary: A Nasty Bit of Rough
Comment: In A Nasty Bit of Rough, by David Feherty, Gussett sets his mind to win the most prestigious prize in golfing history, the finger of St. Anderew, patron saint of Scotland. Though this novel, Gussett goes through battles with peculiar handicaps, single malt scotch, and other afflictions in order to win the finger in a competition with the McGregor clan.
This is a pure delight for those who love the game of golf and for those who like to laugh out loud for hours. If you like an easy book to read and a book that is about raunchy old men, then this is the book for you.
