Shane Bacon is a national sports broadcaster, podcaster, and writer who has spent most of his life around golf. From the pro shop as a kid to picking the range, to caddying at St Andrews and giving pro golf a run, he's seen the sport from just about every angle. These days the main job title is husband and dad to wife Cindy, son Henry and daughter Charlotte. Shane hopes his young kids--like yours--get a little more interested in the game after a few hundred readings of The Golfer's Zoo.
Praise for The Golfer's Zoo:
"The Golfers' Zoo was the first book I bought for my baby and it
instantly became our favorite. I hope Shane writes more kids'
books." -Joel Dahmen, PGA Tour winner "Finally a children's book
about golf my daughter can relate to and enjoy. She doesn't care
about birdies and bogeys but loves animals. What better way to
introduce her to the game I love than through a trip to the Zoo!"
-Mark Hubbard, PGA Tour player "While I might be a few years north
of this book's target audience, I read this cover to cover and
loved every page. Finally, a great golf gift for children. And by
the way, what can't Shane Bacon do?" -Tom Coyne, New York
Times-bestselling author of A Course Called America and A Course
Called Scotland, senior editor of The Golfer's Journal
"The Golfer's Zoo does what all the best golf products do: it
brings moms and sons or fathers and daughters closer together. I'm
grateful for the fruit of relationship within my home that this
book has produced." -Kyle Porter, CBS Sports
"Finally, a book my daughter and I can both enjoy." -Andy Johnson,
The Fried Egg
"Children's books predominantly explain why something is happening.
The Golfer's Zoo invites children into an extremely grown-up game,
that every adult wished they played as a child. Shane Bacon loves
golf as much as anyone I know, and it shines through on each page.
If one kid picks up a club as a result, he would treat it as a
success. I suspect more will, thanks to this book." -Will Brinson,
CBS Sports
"I'd like to golf with my newborn as soon as possible-he can't grip
a club yet but he'll probably be better than me quite quickly. But
until he can swing a driver, the next best thing for golfing fun
together is reading Shane Bacon's The Golfer's Zoo, which we do
often. The colors, the animals, the adventure are all awesome. I
can even relate to the dad's bad short game. My son will be looking
for animals as soon as he gets on the course now!" -Kevin Clark,
The Ringer
