The Caddy Who Knew Ben Hogan / John Coyne
« on: February 06, 2008, 10:51:03 PM »
Anybody else read this wonderful golf novel? I met the author two summer's ago at a book signing and he is working on a second golf novel on Hagen.
Did you know World Woods has the best burger I've ever had in my entire life? I'm planning a trip back just for another one between rounds.

I think this book has been discussed before.

It is a very good read.

There was talk of it being made into a film I believe.

Thanks for the suggestion.  I have placed a reserve on it at the library.

Another good book on Hogan is: "Afternoons With Mr Hogan" by Jody Vasquez.  I've played golf with the author a couple of times and he can flat out play, though, as I recall, his swing is more similar to Trevino's than Hogan's.

Coyne's book is a nice story based at a great old Chicago Club, Midlothian. A nice read on a winter's evening.
