Playing the World Top 100 courses in 100 days--and what it's like to be a member of five of them. A Golf Odyssey with The Real McCoy is much more than Bob McCoy's chronology of his unrivaled feat of playing the World Top 100 courses in 100 days in 1997 (the 100/100). He also explains in detail how he developed a battle plan and managed the logistics for the 100/100 and what it was like to be a member of five of them. The book also contains dozens of vignettes about the people and the places Bob encountered on his epic trip as well as his insights into many of those great courses. Along the way, Bob shares his extensive knowledge about the brilliant architects and entrepreneurs who designed or developed Top 100 courses like Pebble Beach and Sand Hills. Additionally, A Golf Odyssey with The Real McCoy includes stories from one correspondent on how anyone can play Augusta National and from another who played the Old Course at St. Andrews in reverse.
