Publisher's Note
To movie audiences worldwide, Leslie Nielsen is best known as Lieutenant Frank Drebin, the zany hero of the hilarious Naked Gun films. But to duffers around the globe, he has long been famous for a different role, as the World's Greatest Bad Golfer - the Guru of Bad Golf. Now, working with humorist and fellow hacker Henry Beard, Nielsen has drawn on a lifetime of brilliantly uninspired play to produce the unique collection of useless wisdom, spurious reminiscences, and pointless tips that is the Stupid Little Golf Book. Painstakingly fabricated to look like the result of years of study of the game of golf, the Stupid Little Golf Book contains no dopey drills, no mind-game mumbo jumbo, no swing-wrecking instruction. Just simple commonsense advice on how to needle, wheedle, weasel, wangle, chisel, finagle, connive, and fudge your way to victory on the links, interspersed with heartwarming tales of duplicity, chicanery, mendacity, and truly deplorable sportsmanship. Covering everything from fundamentals, such as the grip ("always hold the club at the thin end where that length of rubber stuff is, and not the end that has that curvy metal or wooden thing with the number on it..".), to A Foolproof Way to Knock at Least Six Strokes off Your Score ("skip the last hole"), this is, finally, a golf book for the rest of us, by the man who put fun back into the game of golf.

Industry Reviews
Amateurs and professionals alike look to golf for pleasure, fulfillment, and for those whose drives (pun intended) are less competitive or constructive for both mental and physical torture. Why we love, hate, and fear golf is told in an uncanny yet humorous style by actor (e.g., The Naked Gun, 1988; The Naked Gun 21/2, 1991) and hack golfer Nielsen. Perhaps most intriguing and disconcerting about this slender volume is that although it may be "stupid," golfers will discover that many of the experiences described have a familiar ring. For instance, Nielson claims that "if you can drive, and hit your irons decently, you won't be able to putt" and that "it's dumb luck if by some accident you hit a drive 240 yards right down the middle of the fairway." For public libraries. [Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 12/94.] Jim Paxman, Tennessee State Univ., Nashville
Merullo

If Nielsen the film actor has not attracted enough attention, this tidbit he and former National Lampoon editor Beard (French for Cats) have composed might draw some. Opening with hints on the golfer's stance, grip and sighting, all guaranteed to do nothing to improve one's game, the authors scoff at the notion of taking lessons from a pro but do offer their prescriptions for various ways of undermining a fellow player's morale, such as pointing out that his four-foot putt is more than 1200 millimeters. They also suggest that readers always appoint themselves scorekeeper and pick the other members of their foursomes with care. The book is further filled with ripe corn such as the comment that golf balls is not an ailment; and it earns the ``stupid'' of its title by failing to show any awareness that the game is played by women also. 100,000 first printing; first serial to Playboy; Literary Guild selection. (Apr.)
