Dibs on His Clubs!: An in the Bleachers Golf Collection

by Steve Moore

Even the most golf-obsessed must admit Swatting that tiny dimpled ball around meticulously manicured landscaping makes for one hilarious game. For everyone who appreciates that humor-and especially for those too serious about golf to crack a smile-Dibs on His Clubs! lights up the lighter side of this sport enjoyed by millions.Dibs on His Clubs! is AMP's first book with Steve Moore, the cartoonist and creative genius behind the In the Bleachers daily panel, now syndicated to more than 200 newspapers throughout the U.S. Steve narrows his normal general sports focus to golf, a game that captivates everyone from avid amateurs to those who enjoy watching multimillionaire athletes at work. Steve brings his trademark wacky characters and outrageous situation comedy to every frame of this golf-guffawing collection. Dibs on His Clubs! comes richly illustrated in Moore's sparse but dead-on drawing style. His paunchy duffers are delightful. His players' expressions are outrageous. And no other cartoonist working today finds more ways to inject the timely and the totally-off-the-wall aspects of sports into his work. This book's a humor hole in one for everyone who ever picked up a club, wondered what gift to buy the golfer who already has everything, or who simply appreciates seeing a great comedic mind at the top of his game.
