LOUISVILLE KY (05/26/2010)(readMedia)-- Father's Day is June 20th and the American Lung Association has the perfect gift that will make Dad's day. It's the popular Kentucky Golf Tour Book ("Lung Book"), good for reduced rates at over 500 golf courses in Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana and five other states.

Some of the participating courses allow golfers to play one round a month, and more than 110 clubs offer unlimited rounds. Over 2000 discounted rounds are available with the program. The book also includes savings at practice ranges and indoor golf facilities.

The Kentucky Golf Tour Book is a gift that celebrates Dad and life! Dad will enjoy saving money on his golf game all year long, and he'll take satisfaction in knowing that Golf Book purchases help save lives by supporting the critical fight against lung disease.

Valued at $5,000, the book costs only $35, or about the price of two to three rounds of golf. The Lung Association also offers a buy-three, get-one-free "Fabulous Foursome Package" – four books for $105.
