âThis wonderful tale is for all lovers of golf, especially the weekend hackers with embarrassing handicaps (like me). Now we have hope. If we can just find the magic clubs.ââJohn Grisham
A recently laid-off golf reporter. A down-on-his-luck caddie. And a magical set of clubs once owned by Jack Nicklaus. In this funny, feel-good novel, New York Times bestselling author and former ESPN reporter Gene Wojciechowski gives us a pair of unlikely champions unlike any other.
Joe is a golf reporter. Heâs missed more Fatherâs Days than he cares to count because thatâs when he has to cover the US Open. But his son Buddy has counted every single one.
Joe and Buddyâs relationship is fractured at best. Then one day at a garage sale Buddy finds a woefully obsolete set of golf clubs that supposedly belonged to Jack Nicklaus and decides to give them to his father as an olive branch. When Joe takes the clubs out on a whim, he discovers something unbelievable: heâs hitting 400 yards. No one hits the ball that far, not Tiger, not Nicklaus.
Max âHard Wayâ Mitchell knows golf perhaps better than anyone. He used to be one of the best caddies on the PGA Tour. But he was run out of town after sleeping with a golf proâs wife. Now heâs the owner of a run-down driving range, his glory days slipping away.
When Joe is laid-off, and Hardway realizes that with this magical set of golf clubs he is better than anyone on the tour, he convinces Joe to do the seemingly impossibleâwin the Masters as an amateur. And to do this they'll need each other. Told with a specificity that only comes from years of covering the sport, Gene Wojciechowskiâs fiction debut, All Carry, is a father/son/unlikely friendship/comeback story that will no doubt be a new classic.
