Bill Winter has turned from foundation work to trying to write books, he tells us. “My first one -- a co-authored work about Jack Grout, the man who taught Jack Nicklaus how to play golf and was his lone instructor for 39 years.’
The book is due out November 1.
For those interested in the early days of professional golf the story of Jack Grout and golf begins in 1915 and then takes them all the way forward to the 1980s and the making of today's modern golf tour.
Along the way readers will be delighted with stories of Jack's relationships with golfing legends like Ben Hogan, Byron Nelson, Raymond Floyd, Jack Nicklaus and many others. They get an inside look at Jack's life as a caddy, touring pro and teaching professional and as a man who played and taught the game as a true pro.
Winter is also working on a book called "Letters to Gracie," his (deceased) cat's lessons on living a good life.
