Confessions of a Sandbagger

Every golf course has one. Every golfer knows one. Michael Blaine is the CrossCreek Golf and Country Club sandbagger. On a glorious autumn day in southern Ontario, his Saturday morning playing partners take revenge by strapping him to his golf bag (stuffed with 15 clubs) and tossing him into the pond on the par three 17th hole. As he sinks up to his neck in the pond, he ponders his attitudes, career, and marriage. As each group of golfers plays through from the 17th tee, he tries to enlist a rescue team. Convincing the members and the goose-chasing dog Kaida that he is worth rescuing is about as difficult as any job he has ever faced. Will Mikey admit to his "unplayable lies," or will he spend the winter in a frozen pond? Tag along on Mikey's soggy exploration and find golf, business, and relationship lessons in each chapter.Gowland, J.J. is the author of 'Confessions of a Sandbagger' with ISBN 9781413755275 and ISBN 1413755275.
