Product Description
An extended reflection on the pleasures and wisdom of golf, "Golf Beats Us All" will satisfy the philosopher lurking in every avid golfer and make the golfer smarter and wiser about himself and his game. Author Joe Amato has long been fascinated by the myriad of pleasures offered by golf. And like any player, he remains intrigued by the fact that golfers find such pleasure in a game that causes so much pain, wastes so much time, and whose outcome is of utter insignificance. He offers an intelligent and searching conversation that invites readers to think about their relation to a game that makes them angels and fools.

golf, perfectly described September 8, 2005
I thought this was a great book. A great mix of anecdotes, history, and psychology. Golf is about 'feel', and he captures that feeling in this book. After reading the book it made me want to go out and play 18 holes by myself and really enjoy the beauty of this wonderful game. I will definitely read the book again!
