5 out of 5 stars SIMPLY THE BEST   April 26, 1999
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I received this as a gift and a wonderful gift it is. The paintings by Gary Collins are unlike any golf art I've ever seen. The writing is amazingly insightful. I find I go back and reread different chapters time and again.

AS A NEW GOLFER, READING THIS BOOK GENERATED A MOST THOUGHT PROVOKING ATTITUDE FOR ME THINK MORE SERIOUSLY AND CONCENTRATIVELY ON MY GAME. THE PHILOSOPHIES ON LIFE AND PLAYING THIS, OR ANY GAME, HELP ME TO ZERO IN ON THE TASK AT HAND, WHETHER I'M OUT SWINGING A CLUB OR INVOLVED IN A PARTICULAR SITUATION. THE ART IS EXCEPTIONAL AND ABSOLUTELY ADDS A DIMENSION TO THIS BOOK OF MESSAGES. THIS BOOK IS DEFINITELY HIGH ON MY LIST OF GIFTS TO GIVE FOR ANY OCCASION.

This book captures the most amazing similarities between golf and life. For one to understand the game of golf, truly has a passion for life. From the moment I picked up this book, I was captivated by its wisdom. The Secrets to the Game of Golf & Life should be required reading for all those who wish to master the game of golf. There are no guarantees that it will improve your game, but it will improve your mental awareness of it. The rest is up to you.


5 out of 5 stars It's life...It's golf...It's all about how we apply ourself   April 5, 1999
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

In golf as in life, how we perform is up to us. Leonard Finkel has brillantly mirrored golf and life in "The Secrets to the Game of Golf & Life"...our understanding and emotions, meeting unexpected challenges and playing the game. This book of quotes from Palmer, Nicklaus, and Confucious, accompanied by Gary Max Collins' paintings, is a must-have.


5 out of 5 stars SIMPLY FANTASTIC   June 15, 1998
This insights contained in this book are awsome and revaeling in many contexts. Not your traditional golf book. The paintings convey an almost mystical quality. Simply beautiful. Easy to read in short sessions.
