I was in K Mart today and saw a new golf book called "Golf ...it's a funny game." Inside the garish red cover and LCD title is a superb collection of 40 odd golf course photgraphs from David Scaletti (Many of you would be familiar with his work in Paul Daley's books or at
www.sportscapes.com).
THe general layout of the book is a photo on one side of the layout paired with a short description of the photo and a quote about golf on the other from some of the great names in the game. Names such as Jack Nicklaus, Greg Norman, Bob Hope, Muhammad Ali, Tom Doak, Bill Coore... Tommy Naccarato, Bill "redanman" Vostinak and Jaka B. So there you go, Jaka B might be dead but his words live on, inspiring the beer swilling, boot wearing, K mart shopping, common man.
But all in all, a great little book for 20 bucks. A great collection of photos from the US, UK, and Australia by one of the best Golf Course photographers in the game.
