Summary

What happens if your golf ball becomes lodged in a tree and you can't get it down? What are your
 
options if a ball lands behind a boulder or you want to try to play your ball out of a water hazard?
 
What if you knock the ball off the tee while making a practise swing? For every situation in golf,
 
there's a rule, and for every rule there's a bizarre case of occurrence or misunderstanding.
 
Bizarre Rules of Golf examines more than 60 rules and situations-and their ramifications for golfers
 
both famous and obscure. From Tiger Woods putting for birdie and ending up in the water to Brad
 
Faxon hitting a nice approach shot only to watch a bird lift his ball off the green and plop it in the
 
water, the game's many rulings and interpretations of the rules book are probed and described in
 
entertaining detail.
 
Including the story of poor Pete Oakley. Competing at the 2012 Senior British Open, he was penalized two
 
strokes for losing his caddy. That's right-his caddy! (who also happens to be his wife) It's all here in Bizarre Rules
 
of Golf!

    In "The Green Arch," mountaineer and author John Long offers vivid descriptions of ascending the west face of Tahquitz Rock--a granite, 8,846-foot-tall rock formation located on the high western slope of the San Jacinto mountain range in Southern California--as a teenager with his childhood climbing friends. 
     
    John Long (born July 21, 1953) is an American rock climber and author. A skilled free climber, Long popularized "free soloing" (climbing with no rope) during his high school days out at Joshua Tree National Park, first introducing John Bachar to the practice in 1974 with their now fêted ascent of Double Cross, at Joshua Tree. Long's many climbing feats include the first one-day ascent of the most sought after rock climb in North America, the 3,000 foot Nose route on El Capitan, on Memorial Day, 1975, with Jim Bridwell and Billy Westbay. The following year, partnered with Dale Bard, Long made the second one-day ascent of El Cap via the West Face, in the remarkable time of five hours. He followed this with blitz ascents of Leaning Tower, Washington Column, Half Dome and Ribbon Falls, precipitating the modern speed climbing movement so popular today, both in Yosemite Valley and beyond.
