 Not a "Must Read" But a Very Good Read II March 12, 2008
As with his "Little Red Book," this book is not a must read, but a good read, better, in some respects than the "Little Red Book" because it is more story and memoir and less instruction.
Valuable addition to golf literature from one of golf's best coaches and gentlemen, but it doesn't measure up to the "must read" level.
Strongly recommended, however, for all who love and appreciate the greatest game man (or God) ever invented.
I don't play golf May 2, 2007

I don't play golf, but I've listened to my father's golf stories for fifteen years. And the only time I ever heard him use a really bad word was when he served as chair of the handicap committee at the club he belonged to. He would enjoy this book.
I bought this book for a brother-in-law who didn't get it, but then, he's a club-thrower. Before wrapping it, I read some of the stories and was truly moved. If all you're trying to do is fix your swing, you can probably find better books for that. Penick's stories touch the highest aspirations of the game and its culture.
If you want to learn about what's really important--sportsmanship, friendship, and improving your life as well as your game, then this book might be of interest to you.
IF YOU LIKED LITTLE RED YOU'LL LIKE LITTLE GREEN March 20, 2004
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Harvey Penick's AND IF YOU PLAY GOLF, YOU'RE MY FRIEND is a wonderful companion volume to HARVEY PENICK'S LITTLE RED BOOK. Unlike LITTLE RED, AND IF YOU PLAY GOLF... is more a book of reflections, experiences and anecdotes about the game that Penick devoted a lifetime to. Like LITTLE RED it brings with it a distinctive flavor for the game that is lacking in a sport that has been blown out of proportion by golfing superstars and their embarrassingly large salaries. Penick's words remind golfers everywhere that, in the end, golf is less about celebrity and endorsements and stuffy business sponsors and all about each individual golfer as he or she battles it out on the home course. THE HORSEMAN
Funny and insightful. November 18, 1998

This litany of amusing stories throughout Harvey's life show exactly how amusing us golfers really are. Each story brings out some simplistic gem that will either make you a better golfer or a better person. This book would make a great gift for any of your golfing buddies!
