DRIVEN TO EXTREMES Uncommon Lessons from Golf's Unmanicured Terrain
Jeff Wallach
Tommy Naccarato asked how far it was to Pine Valley's infamous 'Devil's Asshole' bunker. '128 yards,' his caddie said. 'Give me the 8-iron,' Naccarato decided. 'I did not come all the way here to get on the green. I came here to take on that Asshole.'
Driven to Extremes is a rollicking collection highlighting "extreme" golf from one of the game's freshest voices: Extreme Personalities (including "Golf Architecture's Biggest Fan", quoted above), Extreme Destinations (like Baja's Loreto, whose caddie-master has no caddies and whose driving range has only one ball), and many more.
Jeff Wallach writes for Golf Magazine, Links and many other publications. He lives in Portland, Oregon.
