Golfing with God
Book Review

Golfing With God by Roland Merullo is an interesting take about what it means to be a championship golfer.  It articulates the difficulties of the game and contrasts them against the reasons why people fall in love with the game.

The narration starts off slowly as narrator and main character Herman Fins-Winston explains his current situation and a bit of his background.  However, when Herman finally starts “golfing with God”, the book takes off.  Any golfer can relate with Herman’s trials and victories.  Merullo is strongest when Herman is on the golf course, and the book becomes very enjoyable.

What sets Golfing apart from other golf novels is its ability to really focus on the game.  Merullo doesn’t try to overload the reader with parallels between golf and life, but rather describes a man on a journey to become a great golfer.
