During this time, he went from a young caddie to the most famous golf coach in the United States. He enjoys and excels at teaching golfers and enthusiasts at all levels. He has worked with many renowned golf champions as both mentor and friend, their collaboration spanning nearly a century. Just one day before his death, he was still coaching golf legend Ben Crenshaw for the U.S. Masters. Over his 60 years as a professional coach, he recorded all his teaching insights in a red notebook, intended as an inheritance for his son, never shown even to his closest loved ones and friends. When he finally decided to reveal it to the world in 1992, the entire golf world was moved and inspired. This mysterious notebook is "The Little Red Book of Golf," and has since become a must-read for all golfers, coaches, and enthusiasts. Its author is the greatest golf teacher in the world — Harvey Penick. He simplified the technical terms found in other golf instruction books, summarized the basics and winning strategies of golf, explained the importance of golf education in childhood, and frankly shared the simple wisdom about life reflected in the game of golf.
