Carrying the Clubs

The player buried the head of his putter in the green and stalked off leaving me, the caddie, not just to repair the damage, but to ponder what this should mean for the way I would live my life. Golf may appeal to people because it is the best game at which to be bad, but it also is the sport that best demonstrates the character of the player, zits and all.

In Carrying the Clubs, John Frohnmayer, with more than half a century of insight, reflects on the lessons learned from caddying and the rich and varied view that life on the links provides. It is a must read for anyone who loves/hates the game or who wonders how we decipher where we fit in our moral universe.
