Reviews

[David E. Miles · Rating 5 out of 5]

I read this book years ago when I was also starting to take up the game of golf.

Humorous but also perfectly describes the frustrating nature of golf. one day convinced you're mastered the game and then being awful the next and you cannot for the life of you explain why.

A great read for golf lovers
Author really captures the addictive nature of the game and the highs and lows that it provides.
Oh to have the access that he gets. Very jealous.
