GO FOR BROKE!
Arnold Palmer
"A bold shot?
"Yes. You must play boldly to win. My whole philosophy has been based on winning tournaments, not on finishing a careful fifth, or seventh, or tenth.
"A reckless shot?
"No. In 18 years of tournament golf I feel I've never tried a shot I couldn't make."
Those lines sum up what Arnold Palmer has to say about the right way to play golf—don't retreat from a challenge. Later you remember the "sweetness" of the risk, not its dangers.

Go For Broke! is by its very nature autobiographical, but the stories Arnie tells of what's happened on the course over the years are invariably used to tell the golfer-reader how the game is best played. Sometimes it's a matter of technique. More often it's a matter of nerve, tactics, imagination, and the competitive instinct.

This is the golf instruction book with a difference. From Palmer's experiences, both good and bad, you will learn how to deal with yourself and the inevitable changes you go through, how to conquer one golf course as opposed to another, how to think the way a thinking professional does. The book is a tremendously enjoyable one for any golfer, but it is much more than that. It can be a tool that could lift him right out of one brand of golfing into the next higher class.
ARNOLD PALMER'S career is so well known to golfers the world over that he needs no further introduction here. Apart from that, this entire book is about him. ^
