The Complete Office Golf

By David Owen

It's finally here: golf for the office No more Monday-to-Friday, 9-to-5 angst. No more interminably dreary Februarys. No more staring out the window on the first warm days of Spring, aching to be somewhere else. Now, hours once wasted planning, managing, manufacturing, selling, marketing, lawyering, and accounting can be put to productive use in putting, driving, and chipping. From how to set up a course in the conference room to facing a stairwell hazard--over or down?--"The Complete Office Golf "shows how to make a job seem like something you wouldn't mind doing for a living. Profusely illustrated with instructional line art and photographs, "Office Golf" has it all: how to identify other obsessive, yet clandestine, golfers in the workplace (they refer to hallways as fairways and practice their Vardon grips on rulers); course design, including potted plants, water coolers, and other hazards; turf management; the short game--desk lobs, deciding whether to go under or over; specialized clubs; plus how to turn a supply closet into the essential 19th hole. Bound into this eminently functional book are 12 color cardstock pages with 9 punch-out, reusable golf holes; a USOGA membership card; a bag tag; and a scorecard template.

Customer Reviews

Solid book for the office golf enthusiast

Nice all-around book with 9 cardboard holes to base any office golf competition with. Some "good" information and tips along with whimsical. Lets your imagination work more on course layout but good fundamentals.

What a great idea!

I thought I was the only person who played golf around the office. No longer! All you need is a set of Nerf (R) golf clubs and this book, and you're on your way! A must for hip offices.
