This is the year I take golf up again and Mike Brooks wanted me to read a couple by Harvey. Great stuff to chew on.

This is one of Earl's favorite books.

FROM AMAZON: Harvey Penick's life in golf began when he was eight years old, caddying at the Austin, Texas, Country Club. Eight decades later, he is still there, dispensing wisdom to pros and beginners alike. His stature in the golf world is reflected in the wide array of champions that he has worked with, including those featured in this audio program. And it is not for nothing that the Teacher of the Year Award given by the Golf Teachers Association is called the Harvey Penick Award. After sixty years of keeping notes on the things he's seen and learned and on the golfing greats he's taught, Penick lets the secrets in his Little Red Book be heard by the golf world in this classic work. His simple, direct, practical wisdom pares away all the hypertechnical jargon that's grown up around the game, and lets all golfers play their best - whatever their level.

Like a grandfather telling you about golf's old times and his experiences.. pretty cool but gets a little irrelevant.. perhaps I'm just young and new to the game
