5 out of 5 stars Great gift   July 5, 2008
I gave this book as a Father's Day gift to my son, who lost his Dad a few years ago. We both read it. What an inspiration.


4 out of 5 stars A little sugary-sweet, but you have to tip your hat to the man   June 25, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Like me Jim Nantz is from the Houston area, so based on that commonality I've always been a fan. This book details a professional career that's gone very right and a personal life that's posed one significant challenge. There are points where everything that is written, said, etc. has been so perfect that you just want a strong cup of black coffee to wash the sugary taste from your mouth. Then you read the challenges with his Dad and it makes you want to tip you hat to the man and hope that I would react in the same way that he's done.

Great behind-the-scenes and name-dropping book that makes a good summer read.



5 out of 5 stars Fathers Day gift   June 23, 2008
I enjoyed reading Jim's book and gave it to my two sons-in-law as a Fathers Day gift


5 out of 5 stars Not just for golfers   June 21, 2008
I am not a golfer, but Jim's book grabbed me and in many places brought tears. His relationships with his father, his family and his coworkers and friends was exemplary. The personal things he shared were great. It gave me an insight into the lives of the many people he has meet in his career. Everyone should have such lasting relationships!


5 out of 5 stars Read it!   June 17, 2008
This is one of the most enjoyable books I have read in a long time. If you follow sports AT ALL - especially golf - then you will love this book. Jim Nantz weaves the story of his career in with the people he has come to know, along with his reflections from those relationships on father-child connections. Have a hanky ready at all times!
