About this ebook
Now a major motion picture!
Everyone deserves a second chance on the course--and in life. Join golf pro Wally Armstrong and author Ken Blanchard as they condense decades of practical know-how into a simple book with an incredible, inspiring message: sometimes we all need a mulligan.
Meet Paul McAllister. An Ivy League-educated founder of a multimillion-dollar business, Paul was a success in almost everything except life and golf. It only took one Pro-Am afternoon, one short putt, and one airborne putter to send his world flying in a different direction: a mulligan!
Golf's gracious do-over, a mulligan, was the beginning of Paul's own second chance. Guided by the wisdom and advice of an old pro, Paul learned about priorities, self-confidence, and playing a good game both on and off the course. You'll learn all about:
- The importance of friendships
- The true meaning of forgiveness
- Detaching from outcomes and embracing positivity
- The value of having mentors to guide you along the way
Written in a parable style, The Mulligan will give you a second chance to change it all, improving your life and your golf game along the way.
Praise for The Mulligan:
"Wally Armstrong and Ken Blanchard not only understand golf, but life and the value of relationships. They have put together a story that should warm your heart, help your golf game, and just may touch your life."
--Jack Nicklaus, golf legend and 1974 inductee to the World Golf Hall of Fame
"For those who have learned that golf is more than just a game, The Mulligan will be welcome reading that will provide helpful insights not just for their golf game, but for their lives as well."
--Ben Crenshaw, two-time Masters Champion and 2002 inductee to the World Golf Hall of Fame
