Any time I let my imagination wander into thoughts of a dream foursome, David Feherty is always, and I mean always, one of the winners (that is if playing a round with me would be considered “winning”).
His humorous take on golf and life always gives me a smile.
His 4th book, An Idiot for All Seasons is a collection of some of his best columns from Golf Magazine. Included are many of his Sidespin columns, featured monthly on the last [...]
