Avante Garde Golfer

A Journal of new ideas in the world of golf - published quarterly for the avant garde golfer

Spring Quarter 2010

[Avant Garde Golfer is the creative brainchild of one Rufus Muirfield, who lives in golf-poor New York City. Part science fiction, part wishful thinking, every paragraph is from Muirfield's twisted, golf-deprived mind. Everything is also copyrighted by Lakeside Press, and none of these articles may be reproduced without written consent (and who would want to?). Read Avant Garde Golfer as an alternative take on the golf world, for new ideas about golf, or just for fun.]
