Feeling Naked on the First Tee: An Essential Guide for New Women Golfers

I found very little helpful information in this book (which would be more aptly described as a pamphlet). It appears to be a collection of what anyone can find with a 10 minute Google search. I don't recommend it.

*****This is a small, short book. In such a format, it is impossible to cover all of the basics and fundamentals of the golf culture to help a woman feel comfortable her first time on the golf course. That said, this book is a good attempt. If you only have a couple of hours to prepare, and you want to feel as comfortable as possible, I would recommend this book to very new women golfers. It includes a little bit of everything: terminology, culture, etiquette, rules, logistics and practicalities, how to dress, lingo, etc. It also includes some very helpful things that I personally liked: an actual scorecard with the different parts explained, a picture of the different irons, and a chart of hints for "picking up the pace" on the course. It is only 69 pages long so there is only so much that fits, but if you're busy, and you need a CRASH course to get ready, this is your book.****

I bought this for the title as was curious about the book. It is a list of things a beginner golfer will need to know if she wants to take up the game of golf. I was surprised at how thorough it was as it covered everything from golf course holes and what they looked like, bag, balls, clubs, clothes, and accessories.You will find drawings on every page to show just what the author was talking about even a layout of a golf hole. For any new golfer I would suggest buying this book or for some husband or boyfriend to buy this for her. I have played golf for over 50 years but as the title says feeling naked on the first tee, can hit you during tournament play. I can feel how a new golfer would feel when she goes out to play for the first time.The book is well written in easy to understand wording. The drawings are well done and even includes at the end a place to record your progress. Nice little sized book that you could take with you in your golf bag for easy reference.Letta Meinen

I am delighted to finally get this little pink book. It is perfect! So many items explained that a novice should know before heading to a golf course. The author has left the skill area to the teaching professionals, however talks about how and where lessons are available. As a new golfer I am thrilled with all the information provided.

My husband got me this when I took up golf this past year. It's great and funny!! I carry it in by bag and reread from time to time. Per my husband that has played golf all his life, he says its pretty right-on with all the things that go on, on the course!!

Really good book

If you are a beginning golfer you will enjoy this book!

a handy little book with just the right approach for me, a woman without a lot of sports experience who has decided to take up what is probably one of the most challenging sports - really gave me the 'quick and dirty' on what to look for in equipment, the basic rules, the layout of a hole - and did it all with a sense of humor - highly recommend

Very good and handy sized to keep in the golf bag

Just what every new lady golfer needs, good sound information on the rules of golf

As a new golfer it was very usefull explained some things and most of all it was funny which made you wan't to read it

A pocket book for every beginner

A little basic but handy size
