To movie audiences worldwide, Leslie Nielsen is best known as Lieutenant Frank Drebin, the zany hero of the hilarious Naked Gun films. But to duffers around the globe, he has long been famous for a different role, as the World's Greatest Bad Golfer - the Guru of Bad Golf.Now, working with humorist and fellow hacker Henry Beard, Nielsen has drawn on a lifetime of brilliantly uninspired play to produce the unique collection of useless wisdom, spurious reminiscences, and pointless tips that is the Stupid Little Golf Book.Painstakingly fabricated to look like the result of years of study of the game of golf, the Stupid Little Golf Book contains no dopey drills, no mind-game mumbo jumbo, no swing-wrecking instruction. Just simple commonsense advice on how to needle, wheedle, weasel, wangle, chisel, finagle, connive, and fudge your way to victory on the links, interspersed with heartwarming tales of duplicity, chicanery, mendacity, and truly deplorable sportsmanship.Covering everything from fundamentals, such as the grip ("always hold the club at the thin end where that length of rubber stuff is, and not the end that has that curvy metal or wooden thing with the number on it..."), to A Foolproof Way to Knock at Least Six Strokes off Your Score ("skip the last hole"), this is, finally, a golf book for the rest of us, by the man who put fun back into the game of golf.
