Summary: The most enjoyable golf book ever!
Review: Rick Reilly is able to capture all the little aspects of golfing with your buddies that make golf so great. There are SO many neat little sayings in this book that have wound up being used in our regular golf games. "I shot a radio station", "He pays out like an ATM", etc. etc. You won't be able to put this book down.

Summary: What happened between the hardback and paperback versions?
Review: The hardback edition of Missing Links is the best novel written about the game of golf. Rick Reilly captures the fun, friends, and atmosphere of the game with amazing clarity. To capture this setting a certain number of off color words are required.Imagine my suprise when I bought the paperback version and found that it had been edited. Now we can ponder the deep literary meaning of the words "frick" and "boink". Buyer beware! The paperback version is not the same.I have never known of a book to be edited between the hardback and paperback versions. I urge readers to obtain the first edition not this edited watered down version.

Summary: a fun read
Review: This is a fun book to read. It centers around a group of friends(the chops) who play at Ponkaquogue Municipal Golf Course(known as Ponky) and Deli, the single worst golf course in America. One day they discover that Ponky is next to the Mayflower, an exclusive upper-class golf club, They make a bet to see who will be the first to play at the Mayflower. The bet ends up affecting their friendship and their lives. After many (often hilarious) schemes, things work out for our heroes. Reilly is best known as a columnist for Sports Illutrated and this is his first novel.. As such it is a great effort. He creates a memorable group of characters and while the plot is often predictable, there are some great one-liners and very funny conversations.. A nice fun read - ideal for a flightor trip.

Summary: The Best Book I've Ever Read
Review: Rick Reilly has proven once again that he is the best writer on the planet. Stick, Two Down, Hoover, Cementhead, Thud, Crow Bar, and Chunkin' Charlie make up a cast that will not only entertain you while you read the book, they will stay in your memory for time to come. Reilly uses his knowledge of sports and his knowledge of life to create this extraordinary novel.

Summary: What a pleasure to read!
Review: Rick Reilly accomplishes what many attempt and few achieve: a truly funny book which also deals with some of the important things in life. I haven't had as much fun reading a book since Michael Lewis' Liar's Poker. If you're even thinking about it, get this book!

Review: Rick Reilly is a jerk and i am very angry for wasting my time reading this book and his article in Sports Illustrated. He had the audacity to even make fun of fun of sheppard good for him don't expect me to buy another of his books! The book wasn't that bad as far as golf books which are usually dry. He bad mouthed my favorite sports city therefore the book is boring!

Summary: A book that explains golf comradeship in hilarious style.
Review: The most hilarious, yet moving book about golf snobs and slobs. All hacks who have a regular team game, (with customary bets) will especially enjoy this story. Going to buy copies for all the duffers I play with.

Summary: THIS SHOULD BE A MOVIE!
Review: This book would make a great movie -- it's a great read too, but this has the potential for being among the top golf movies ever...
