Brian outlines the classic principles and art of teaching he learnt in his youth which he has refined over time and still teaches today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e​While Brian is a renowned storyteller, this is the first time he has told the stories of his inner game - how he grew up, became an exceptional golfer, a devoted club professional and a gifted teacher. In the process, Brian reveals what has inspired him, what makes him tick, and what keeps him teaching today. By further sharing his lessons and his golfing fundamentals, Brian hopes he can help even more golfers be the best that they can be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the help of biographer Gillian Ednie, who started her lessons with Brian as a teenager, stories about Brian's impact from family, friends, and pupils to famous golfers, such as Gary Player, have also been included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginally intended as a gift for his 90th birthday, the project began with a just few audio recordings of Brian's personal life to be shared with his family. However, as his bigger life story unfolded the project developed a momentum of its own. It soon became apparent that many important stories and his legacy, as a teacher and an elder in the golf club, had not been recorded and were in danger of being lost. Just Magnificent - Lessons from a Life in Golf can now be shared with his much-loved family, friends and wider golfing community.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gillian Ednie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Your Biography\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/21\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.55d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780648430001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBrian, Twite:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Brian Twite has worked as a professional golfer for the past seventy years.
