Mystic Links - Every Game Has Its Stories - from the author of Hit Down Dammit!

"I am a golfer-at-large and not really a book critic, but I can honestly tell you I very much enjoyed reading Mystic Links. I would, without hesitation, tell you that you will enjoy it too. A very interesting way of talking golf via stories that are not your normal morning ball and golf tale.

Virtually no one out there lacks an opinion about golf. Golfers are obsessed with it and non-golfers are never shy to voice their opinion on it. This is the audience I am writing to with â€œMystic Linksâ€: non-golfers and golfers alike. Golf is the common denominator, but the actual stories are about people. People who play golf and people who donâ€™t.

Golf can be a metaphor for life, and certainly life can be a metaphor for golf. I consider myself a true sports fan, with my love for sports ranging from ice hockey to cricket and almost everything in between. But there is something inexplicable about golf. Its history, its traditions, and certainly its characters.
Golfâ€™s inexplicability can even foster a mystical impression of it; that there are powers at play so far beyond our control that any attempt to truly master the game are, well, pointless.

â€œMystic Linksâ€ was originally conceived as a television show: sort of my answer to â€œTouched By an Angel on a golf courseâ€. Each chapter is a stand-alone story, episode if you will, but with at least one element that â€œlinksâ€ to the story preceding, or the story to follow.

I hope you enjoy â€œMystic Linksâ€ and certainly welcome your feedback via my website at www.hitdowndammit.com .

Sincerely,
