"Sticks" - The ultimate golf fantasy.
Bob Andrews, the book's central character has just bought a new set of golf clubs and he expects big things to happen to his game! And big things do happen, but not what he expects!
When you read "Sticks" you won't believe what happens - but maybe - you'll just want to believe!
Excerpt
He arose and walked straight downstairs, passing the bathroom and the kitchen on the way and walked directly to the garage. There they were, glittering in the early morning sunlight as it poured through the window. Their beauty was blinding, all twelve hundred and fifty dollars of it. The sun gleamed from the nine iron, it danced from the seven and sparkled from the three. The soft leather bag accented the brilliant display with a touch of elegance that sent shivers down his spine. Even the head covers on the woods cast their own special radiance completing the grandeur of the scene.
All the extra hours that he had spent at work in order to buy them now seemed a small price to pay for objects of such beauty and perfection, he thought.
Reluctantly, he slowly closed the door and wandered back up the stairs still somewhat awestruck, and began his preparation for what he knew would be his greatest day ever. Mindlessly, he shaved and showered, brushed his teeth and dressed, all the time imagining the taste of triumph that soon would be his.
