Teeing Off gives one of golf's most unique and well-traveled personalities a chance to, well, tee off on some of the most unforgettable characters and experiences he's had in a lifetime of playing and covering the royal and ancient game. Partly a memoir about a lifetime association with golf's greatest performers and most colorful characters, it is also a collection of fascinating inside reminiscences and anecdotes about the game's elite that will entertain, amuse, enlighten, and perhaps surprise readers. Included are stories about Hagen and Hogan, Nelson and Nicklaus, Palmer and Player, Sarazen and Snead, Watson and Woods, and many others by an author who has known them all, up close and personal. Ken Bowden stumbled into golf writing and editing in the early 1960s by keeping pace with a world-class gin-and-tonic imbiber one memorable evening in a famous London pub. In seemingly no time at all, Bowden was the founding editor of a magazine that soon became Europe's premier publication about Scotland's second-best invention (after whisky, of course ). A few years later, Bowden became editorial director of Golf Digest, America's and the world's top publication about knocking small white balls around big green fields. Once a plus-one handicapper and Canadian Super Senior champion, Bowden has co-authored 11 books with Jack Nicklaus and still plays to a six handicap. He also developed two of the all-time best-selling golf instructional videos and co-produced more than 200 golf-related television programs with and for the BBC.
