The Only Golf Book That Improves Your Excuses… Not Your Swing
Every golfer knows the truth: blaming yourself is the one thing that’s never in play. The Golfers’ Guide to Excuses is the ultimate laugh-out-loud manual for turning every shank, slice, and topped shot into a story worth telling.
Packed with over 250 brilliantly absurd excuses for every on-course disaster, this book arms you with the perfect response for when your ball’s in the trees, the bunker, or mysteriously in someone’s backyard. From “the sun was in my eyes” to “my clubs are allergic to this grass,” you’ll never be caught speechless again.
Inside, you’ll discover how to:
Blame weather patterns that don’t exist
Throw your equipment under the bus (but keep playing with it)
Shift the blame to playing partners, course design… or supernatural forces
Sell a triple bogey as a heroic near-par
Master the art of excuse delivery so convincing, you might even believe it yourself
Perfect for:
Golfers who never admit fault
Friends who say “I played well… just scored bad“
Weekend warriors and 19th-hole storytellers
Anyone who enjoys the game more for the laughs than the leaderboard
Also includes:
Excuse inspiration straight from the pros (yes, they do it too)
Bizarre golf trivia to distract from your score
Absolutely zero tips to improve your game-but plenty to protect your pride
Whether it’s for a birthday, Father’s Day, retirement, or just to mess with your golf buddies, this is the gag gift that keeps on giving… one bad shot at a time.
