From Library Journal
Waggoner has done what every golfer dreams of doing: he has written a book on his favorite sport. The book is divided into 18 "holes." The first nine deal with Waggoner's view of professional golfers, from the perspective not of a journalist but a fan walking the course with the entourage. The second nine "holes" deal with the author's own experiences on the links, mixing light instruction with humorous anecdotes. Most entertaining is his chapter on the art of throwing a club: "A golfer who claims he has never... thrown a golf club is like a candidate for president under fifty years old who swears he has never... smoked a little grass." Waggoner has presented every true golf fan with a new best friend that can be read many times over with delight.

This book is a classic,
By A Customer
This review is from: Divots, Shanks, Gimmes, Mulligans, and Chili Dips: A Life in 18 Holes (Paperback)
This book is a classic. It's the finest example of life-as-a-golf-game literature as I've ever seen. Bravo! And fore!
