 He's Got It...By George, He's Got It.... August 11, 2008
With apologies to Henry Higgins, "He's Got It...By George, He's Got It..."
Carl Hiassen is one of us. He knows what its like to make a "comeback" for someone who never was (a golfer)!!!
And he puts it all into a most readable book: the joy, the laughter, the heartache, the sorrow, the ectasy, the agony, the anger of it all, especially the downhill lie.
For a would-be comeback golfer, reading this book is kind of like looking up at the night sky and knowing, "We are not alone...we are not alone..."
 A great read August 7, 2008
As a "golfer" (and the quotes are necessary in the interest of truth), this is one of the funniest books ever written about this most confounding and frustrating sport. If you ever or never played the game, you'll enjoy it. If you've played a round and are ready to give up, but then remember the one or two respectable shots you hit, you'll relate to his story of returning to the game after a decades long lay-off. A great gift for anyone with an interest in the game.
Got Golf? August 4, 2008
For anyone who plays or wants to learn to play golf, this book is real life experience of the games frustrations. Written in Hiaason's humorous style, you empathize with his struggle. Easy read and fun book.
Most Enjoyable Book July 26, 2008
