After all, guys in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s, guys no one heard of until recently, are making planeloads of money on the various golf tours (and buying private planes to take them from one big-money tournament to the next). <i>A Good Walk Spoiled</i> is a bit of a reality check. John Feinstein chronicles the struggles of the top golfers in the game, as well as those trying to get onto the PGA Tour. These are gifted players who've devoted their lives to the game, and on any given day they could just flat out stink. <i>A Good Walk Spoiled</i> is a completely engaging book from first page to last, a wonderfully observed and masterfully told story of pain and profit in the world's most frustrating sport. 877827 1995 A Good Walk Spoiled: Days and Nights on the PGA Tour total:267|5:61|4:116|3:73|2:14|1:3| 267 1019 327 23 3 0 false false Mon Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Sat Dec 13 21:51:03 -0800 2008 Sat Dec 13 21:52:53 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu Apr 30 07:43:19 -0700 2009 Thu Apr 30 07:55:15 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Mon Aug 10 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Aug 05 08:10:50 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 10 21:14:53 -0700 2009 Simply, if you're a golfer, you'll find much of the book entertaining, but I ...more...]]> 5 1 false false Wed Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 1997 Sat Jul 26 00:57:00 -0700 2008 Sun Aug 24 23:06:58 -0700 2008 1. no longer shake your head and wonder how someone can sit on the couch and watch a golf tournament all day long on a perfect Sunday afternoon, especially each of the 4 "Majors"
