About this deal

Probably the most famous reference to the partridge is in the Christmas carol, " The Twelve Days of Christmas". [4] The first gift listed is "a partridge in a pear tree", and these words end each verse. Since partridges are unlikely to be seen in pear trees (they are ground-nesting birds) [5] it has been suggested that the text "a pear tree" is a corruption of the French " une perdrix" (a partridge). [6] Since the ball was a pretty decent one, I ventured into the woods in search of it. Although I never in fact found it, what I did discover was indeed quite remarkable. Birdie", meaning a score of one stroke under Par, comes from the early 20th century American slang term "bird", meaning anything excellent. The September 1911 edition of Maclean Magazine described a golf shot as - '"bird" straight down the course, about two hundred and fifteen yards.'

Eagle", a score of two under par for a given hole, was clearly the extension of the theme of birds for good scores from a " birdie". It would be natural for American golfers to think of the eagle, which is their national symbol and the term seems to have developed only shortly after the 'birdie'. Among the ideas contained in the letters is a putter that simply can’t miss; using the RAF to help create features on a golf course to be built on otherwise flat terrain on Romney Marsh; an explosive driver that can hit the ball over 500 yards, and twinning Dale Hill golf club in Flimwell with Augusta National.Mortimer also has a long association with the grand old game having played for some 60 years (to an exceedingly poor standard). But during that time, he has forged some strong opinions and ideas on the sport, and he enjoys nothing more than expressing those in predictably old-fashioned style – by good old snail mail. The Dalai Lama, Novak Djokovic, former US President Donald Trump, Pope Francis and Bryson DeChambeau are among nearly 100 recipients of letters flowing from the acerbic pen of an extremely disgruntled high-handicapper called Mortimer Merriweather that has recently been published by Merlin Unwin. Partridges are medium-sized game birds, generally intermediate in size between the larger pheasants, smaller quail; they're ground-dwelling birds that feature variable plumage colouration across species, with most tending to grey and brown. The Dalai Lama, Novak Djokovic, President Trump, Pope Francis and the Queen are among nearly 100 recipients of letters from Clive Agran, a freelance golf journalist who lives just outside Rye.

First of all, there was a very old bone that had been fashioned into something akin to a lob wedge. There will, I know, be sceptics who will say that it is just an old bone that happens to resemble the shape of a golf club. However, close inspection of the top of the bone reveals heavy scratch marks. To give this book its full title: “A Partridge on a Par Three – The Unexpurgated Golf Letters of Mortimer Merriweather” gives more of a clue about what to expect when opening this all new, singing and dancing edition of the book, featuring extra content. It’s a series of rather hilarious missives penned by the fictional character Mortimer Merriweather to an extraordinarily diverse selection of recipients.
