Resumen del Editor

You never really know when you might meet someone who will change your life. Golf's Sacred Journey is a story about a 'chance' meeting between a fictitious golf professional and his unorthodox mentor. As the story unfolds, we---along with the pro---learn lessons about golf and life that we never expected to learn in places we never expected to learn them. Many have picked up Golf's Sacred Journey looking for the secret to a better game but instead found the secret to a meaningful life.

great stuff

Too much backstory dump in the beginning, but really enjoyed it after that. Highly recommend.

Decent experience

Good inspirational content; should be a lot longer though to add depth. *SPOILER* the fact that the protagonist was able to fix a marriage in the course of a night during a four day golf tournament was a little too quick for my taste (the book just didn't have enough "show-not-tell")

Great message!

If you ever want to learn how to better control your emotions on and off the course, this book is a must read. I enjoyed getting lumps in my throat listening to this book as the examples and lessons can be profound yet simply stated. I'm ready to take my game and my life to the next level of understanding and compassion. I'm no longer trapped by my score or how many birdies I make, but free to enjoy the game for what it is. I can't wait to play!

Even if you don't play golf....

Great story, to change you're life

Take a step back and listen

It’s starts off really frustrating and heavy but that’s what it’s supposed to do. The story and optimal mental state that it recommends for Golf is hard to argue against. It got really religious and I felt myself get defensive but I put that on myself as being close minded. Religion / philosophy is the same thing without the power play so I just finished with an open mind and the message of this book brought me great value. Balance confidence, purpose and meaning in life. …That I will take onto the golf course and rule! This Book was very refreshing for me.

Golf's Sacred Journey... Life's Sacred Journey

This book will not only change the way you think about and play golf, it will change the way you think about life. While most golf psychology books repeat the same basic fundamentals, David Cook takes the reader through a journey that will leave you with a new perspective on golf allowing you to play more freely and to live life with greater purpose. Once you begin this compelling book, you will not be able to stop listening.

One of the best movies ever.

Speaks to life in general in the format of a golfer is time of difficulty. Inspiring, accurate, and valuable thoughts for all ages. Well presented and in terms that all should be able to appreciate if they think about the content and not just the example. Excellent to read and reread.

See it, feel it, and trust it.

More then just about golf the story is refreshing and a retreat in itself. I enjoyed all the characters especially Johnny.I'm looking forward to taking the teachings and apply them to my own life, family, and faith.

More Religion than Golf.

Was disappointed in that I thought this was a sappy religious book that really didn't have any redeeming golf wisdom in it. If you want a religious book then you'll probably love it.
