Glad you're liking it.  I was sending it out as a pdf file that is downloadable, but from what I've heard, that doesn't offer the flexibility of adjusting size, etc.  It's also available through Barnes & Noble.

A number of golfers requested the book, a few really liked it, so I'm anxious to hear what the others think.  If anybody else is interested in checking it out, the free book offer is still open, at least until the end of this week.

Thanks, Spike, good to hear it was worthwhile. I wrote it for golfers so I wanted it to have plenty of golf action, not just a golf setting.  Cheers.

Thanks again, Gary.


Thanks for the kind words, Pourputt.  I've been thinking about a sequel but haven't locked in on a compelling story yet.

I really liked the book.   It is fast paced and compelling.   The reader is wrapped up in the lifes of the characters and you feel as if you personally know them.    This book is highly recommended.

Thanks for giving us the opportunity to preview it.   I'm sure it will be a great seller.

Like the others, I'm awaiting the sequel.

Thanks, Denny.  I hope I can prove you right about it being a great seller, but it's a long haul when you self publish.  That's why I'm grateful for this forum and the people who are helping get the word out.

I thought it was outstanding - a real page turner with great characters and story. Well worth the $ - I know Gary's been providing free copies but I'd encourage anyone interested to pay for it... gotta support our fellow Sandtrappers. :-)

(And it may be coincidence, but I played 3 of my best rounds in years after reading it - I think some of the mental game advice from the Jack character sunk in.)

Almost done with it. Great read, no BS. I like how it mixes the golf part with the murder mystery part seamlessly with no cheesiness. Definitely recommend yo!

      Saw these today, this is a scam.  Joined in 2026.  Click his name and then his profile.  2 posts, no friends, one item for sale.  These clubs are probably takes from Temu. Facebook

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Range again today. A few freezers and a few smoothies. If I add a little speed I swing further arms go deeper and lower and more across again. Really like where this freezer got to on backswing:   This is a smoothie (ish). Clubhead tracks up the hands nicely but the things go a bit wrong: At normal speed: Lastly one shortish pitch shot. Pitching some days I come out and can drop it on the flag. Other days it’s going sideways. Like missing right or left by 10 yards from 50 yards and nothing in between. I suspect it’s from the hands coming out and the cut across. If I release it on that line it’s going left. If I hold it off it’s going right and then it’s timing. When it’s off it’s off. Feels like if I can get that under control it will tighten up a lot.

      Have You Played Where a PGA, Champions, or LPGA Event Has Been Played?

      By Elmer · Posted

      Disney's Lake Buena Vista Golf Course. Which I believe used to host a LPGA tournament. Fantastic course, compared to what I typically play. So fantastic I carded a 115! in my defense it was 90 degrees by 9 am in late July. Not to mention whatever grass they had around the green was absolutely foreign to me, I could not get my wedge through it. The entire grass came up like it was a piece of shag carpet. Suffice to say my short game was a mess. but good times!

      2026 Arnold Palmer Invitational

      By MentalityJohn · Posted

      The most important thing in my mind was Akshay responding all day Sunday. He was 2 over and five back at the turn and just get grinding. bridies galore and then on the fifth he bogeyed and on the sixth he played it far enough right that if he missed a little left it would be right by the hole. It was and he made the eagle. Stayed in it, kept playing great and kept getting pars. He very much deserved the win.
