Different Strokes: The Lives and Teachings of the Game’s Wisest Women Mona Vold’s Different Strokes gathers the untold stories of remarkable women golfers like Betty Jameson, Wiffi Smith, Polly Riley, and Kathy Whitwort. Their swings were every bit as perfect as Byron Nelson’s, their battles to overcome injury were every bit as heroic as those of Ben Hogan, and their achievements were every bit as impressive as those of Bobby Jones, Jack Nicklaus, and other heroes of the men’s game. Yet, until now, their words, wit, and wisdom have largely gone untold.
Different Strokes, a collection of 15 portraits of some of golf’s wisest players, provides insights into the lives, achievements, frustrations, and joys of these legendary female athletes. Author Mona Vold reveals the little-known triumphs of these golfers - from their dramatic rises to success to their heroic battles to overcome adversity or injury - and, along the way, she delivers sound technical advice, fascinating anecdotes, and inspiring insights to appreciating the game. Different Strokes will be treasured by every woman who plays golf - from the weekend amateur to the pros on the LPGA tour.

Customer Review: A unique gallery
“If a person has any greatness in them, it comes to light , not in one flamboyant hour, but in the ledger of their daily work.” Beryl Markham “West with the Night”
The women Mona Vold writes about in her book, “Different Strokes”, are national treasures worthy of any reader’s time. And although the common thread of their journeys is the world of golf, the passion of their hearts, the clarity of their minds and the strength of their voices both dig deeply into and transcend that rich and humbling game.
Without reservation, I highly recommend this wise and thoughtful book.
