Average Rating: Rating: - A must read for those who love golf. If you play this crazy game, if you love to gamble on the golf course, and if you have a regular group you play with, this is one book you can't pass up. Once started you can't put it down. I found myself laughing out loud several times. I'm ordering a couple of copies for my golfing buddies right now!! I belong to a "Mayflower" type club but I still golf regularly with my "chop" buddies at another course. Read the book and you'll understand why. Rating: - Missing Links The book Missing Links by Rick Reilly is a book about a group of low class friends who play at the worst golf course in America called Ponky. The group of friends, called Chops, loves their golf course even though it is inhabited by a sewage treatment plant and run down billboards, and where the cups are pulled out of the ground like volcanoes. Other than the Chops unstable jobs, Ponky is their life. One day while the Chops were playing a game with another frivolous bet on the line Crowbar, a fat chop who never plays golf, said something to disturb Hoover, a 120 pound die hard golfer. Hoover got so mad he took out his 16 foot ball retriever and swung it at Crowbar. Hoover missed and ended up making a large hole in a hedge through which they could see the Mayflower Country Club, the snootiest most exclusive club in America, right next to the worst course in the world. The Chops were mesmerized by the beauty of the Mayflower and Two Down made a bet where everyone put in [money]whoever played the Mayflower without any other Chops with them got the money. Everyone tried hard to get into the Mayflower, but the Mayflower only invites people with [money]who are the descendants of the people who came to America on the Mayflower. To find out what happens you will have to read the rest of the book. I recommend Missing Links to any golfer that has a good sense of humor. Reading this book will make any day better and give you something to think about when you are sad. The characters in the novel are simply hilarious and unforgettable. The book makes you feel like your life is a little better and it adds a smile to your face. Rating: - Revenge of the Chops! Without exception, the funniest and most entertaining book on golf I've ever read. If you can read more than 5 pages without doubling over you have not an ounce of Chop in you. I've read it a second time in an attempt to dog-ear all the pages with a memorable line -- and it's nearly every page! Already bought 10 copies for friends -- Hoover, 2 Down, Thud and the gang -- which has reinvigorated our regular game. This book "very much does not suck." Thanks Rick. Looking forward to another 18 at Ponky
