The Hilarious Truth Behind Every ""Nice Shot!""

Golf is the only sport where you can shank a ball into the parking lot and still smile... as long as you've got the right comeback. Nice Shot! is your laugh-out-loud, tell-it-like-it-is guide to decoding the polite lies, sarcastic jabs, and friendly trash talk that keep golfers coming back for more (even when their scorecard says they shouldn't).

Inside, you'll discover:

The real meaning behind ""You'll get it next time"" and other golf-speak classics Excuses so creative you'll want to print them on your bag tag Hilarious golf fails that prove you're definitely not the worst player out there Banter and burns guaranteed to spice up your next round

Perfect for weekend duffers, serious slicers, and anyone who thinks ""par"" is a four-letter word, this book is the ultimate gift for golfers who love the game... and love laughing at it even more.

Because in golf, the ball might not always go where you want - but the jokes sure can.

Ricky Woods is a lifelong sports addict with a realistic understanding of his own abilities: enthusiastic, committed, and absolutely not destined for greatness. Whether he's hacking his way around a golf course, tangling fishing lines, convincing himself cycling uphill builds ""character,"" or redefining what counts as ""running,"" Ricky brings the same energy: try hard, swear harder, and laugh hardest.Lover of sports, master of excuses, Ricky gives 100%... of what he's got left. When he's not out playing badly, he's watching the pros do it properly from the safety of his couch - loudly offering advice they definitely don't need. He calls it ""staying realistic.""Ricky has always believed in laughing at yourself first... mostly because everyone else will beat you to it.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - CAD (United States) Relaxing enjoyable read Enjoyed this book. From page 1 thru the end. Pace of reading very enjoyable with lots of witty(but true) saying inter spaced with some facts about pros also finding funny (also sad) moments. Very easy read ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Alan (United States) Relaxing enjoyable read Fun read with a great mix of humor and stories As a high-handicap golfer, I very much liked and related to this book. I mean, who hasn't been told ""Nice Shot"" when you know you're never going to find that ball? It's a fun read with a nice mix of humor and storytelling. The examples of well-known professionals messing up adds a nice bit of facts to help one stay grounded. I highly recommend this book, under two conditions...1) You have to golf. 2) You have to have a sense of humor. It's a fun read for yourself and/or makes a great gift for the golfer in your life. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - hessps (United States) A must have for golf fans A very entertaining time for people who love golf and have their own stories. I loved every page.
