Somewhere Between a Par and A Bogey, April 2, 2008
Most golfers would be happy to have a par or a bogey...scoring a par or a bogey is not a bad thing, but it is not as good as a score might be...and so it goes with this book.
Good quotes presented in an excellent context. The makeup and layout of the book may be among its' best attributes. Good quotes, too, some outstanding...but overall it lacks a little zip, the zip hoped for and anticipated in one of the first golf books of the spring.
Had the feeling reading the book that the writer (editor) tried to be a little too polticially correct. Quotes from women seemed to take up a disproportionate share of the text.
