Foremost Saves Christmas!
Readers,
Many of you have asked if and when Foremost would address the New Rules of Golf 2019. Some of you have reported to F (confidentially of course) that your hair is falling out and you are losing sleep worrying about the changes!
Foremost has heard your cries!
Ok, this is a savvy golfing group…serious golfers…you know how to play golf; you know where to find a Rule book, and how to read it. So why purchase a book? By Foremost?
The answer is that the New Rules, regardless of your skill level, will require some serious study. Foremost would venture to say that the changes are more comprehensive than advertised, even if “play” will ultimately, in some respects, be simplified.
To grasp the New Rules, one will need to read and study them…222 pages of rules and definitions…and reflect as one reads, about the implications for his own game…a tedious, although richly rewarding task …but be forewarned, the new Rules of Golf do not highlight changes—you have to find them!
Consider Foremost’s book a study aide — you will encounter the same scenarios you face on the golf course, and find the rules and changes well-cited (for future reference) with the inside and expert commentary Foremost gleaned from the real experts — at the very first New Rules work-camp presented anywhere in the world. (Of course Foremost was there … offering his highly-sought and well-respected insights!).
A romp through this book will have you ready to go in 2019 … talking the talk, mindful of the major changes, and alerted to the less-publicized quirks. I think you will learn something, and perhaps get a laugh or two.
The book is available now in paper-back on Amazon .com (paper-back only because I think the citations may be helpful for further reference). I hope you will read, enjoy and offer a review.
Respectfully submitted,
F
