A Takeaway on the Takeaway

A straight, consistent golf shot begins with a straight, consistent takeaway. This drill from Sharon McQuillan is a great way to groove the proper club path. It's simple and easy to remember, which means it's something you can take from the range to the course.

Among many other books, Dave Donelson is the author of Weird Golf: 18 tales of fantastic, horrific, scientifically impossible, and morally reprehensible golf

About Me

I'm the author of eight books (so far), including Weird Golf, 18 tales of fantastic, horrific, scientifically impossible, and morally reprehensible golf.

My other books include Heart of Diamonds, a novel of scandal, love, and death in the Congo, and The Dynamic Manager's Guide series of books to make good managers better.

I'm a freelance writer and photographer who regularly works for about three dozen magazines and newspapers covering a diverse range of topics. I have the most fun, though, when I write about golf. Sometimes, I even have fun when I PLAY golf.

I'm a member of the Metropolitan Golf Writers Association, which serves the game by honoring outstanding champions and contributors, promoting golf journalism, and raising money for metropolitan (New York) area golf programs.

My career as a broadcaster, entrepreneur, and writer has taken me from the jungles of Australia’s Cape York Peninsula to the minarets of Riyadh. I've climbed the spire of the Empire State Building, floated the Usumacinta River to the Mayan ruins at Piedras Negras in Guatemala, and photographed the tree-climbing lions and mountain gorillas of Uganda, but those adventures were no more thrilling than my chip-in eagle on the second hole at Pebble Beach.
