Here is what Charlie Rymer of the Golf Channel said about, 50 Reasons to HATE Golf and Why You Should NEVER Stop Playing!:

“Fred Fruisen does a great job of identifying golf’s intriguing dichotomy. Read this hilarious book and find out why all of us golfers are bat sh*t crazy!”   – Charlie Rymer, Golf Channel

3-d-book-cover
Every golfer has a love/hate relationship with the game of golf. We have all been frustrated to the point of announcing our departure from this infuriating sport only to show up at the course the next day, excited to play again.

This book is a look at this addictive, wonderful, strange, beautiful, exasperating, mystifying sport and the golf culture that has obsessed us all for more than 500 years.

You will certainly see a bit of yourself and your playing partners in its pages.

Available everywhere books are sold.

Hardcover. Only $12.99 usd. Published by punchline ideas.

Charlie Rymer of the Golf Channel was gracious enough to read my book early on and even wrote a blurb for the cover. Today I got to hand him a copy for his golfing library.

More to come.

Me working on my new book in Auckland, New Zealand.

Hello loyal followers!

Sorry there haven’t been any posts recently. I’ve been busy!

Here is what has been going on:

In March of this year I began talking to a publisher in the U.S. (Punchline Books) and we got talking about an idea for a project and a long story short– I ended up signing a contract to write and illustrate a book about golf!

The book will be a humorous book about golf. I’m not suppose to tell you the title yet but in the near future I will be able to give everyone all the details.

The book will be in stores in April of 2017. You will be able to pre-order copies sometime before the end of the year on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other major book sellers. The book will be hard cover and will also be available as an ebook. It will be a great gift idea for next Fathers Day!

I’m very excited about the project and as of now have completed the writing and am about 50% through the illustrations.

Very excited!
