Joe is a golf reporter. Max 'Hard Way' Mitchell used to be one of the best caddies on the PGA Tour. When Joe is laid-off, and Hardway realizes that with a magical set of golf clubs he is better than anyone on the tour, he convinces Joe to do the seemingly impossible—win the Masters as an amateur.
A wildly entertaining new book ... Peopled with lively, amusing and loathsome characters ... There is romance, a lot of golf lore and history, familial woes and joys, and a world fashioned with wit and written with style.
It takes a while for the novel, which is better marching down fairways than dealing with domestic life, to find its stroke. But once it does, it treats its readers well. An enjoyable modern fable for players and fans alike.
