Linda,
Enjoyed reading this book from Jack Nicklaus's son。 An entertaining and insightful look at the golfer behind the scenes。 Great family photos included。 I watched Nicklaus play for many years and this read was a treat。 Thank you to W Publishing and Goodreads for the Giveaway copy。 Enjoyed reading this book from Jack Nicklaus's son。 An entertaining and insightful look at the golfer behind the scenes。 Great family photos included。 I watched Nicklaus play for many years and this read was a treat。 Thank you to W Publishing and Goodreads for the Giveaway copy。 。。。more

Travis Standley,
I enjoyed hearing more about Jack Sr through is something Jackie。 Of all the golf greats, I’ve long admired the Golden Bear, Jack Nicklaus。 I’ve learned more of why this is the case。 He has values focused on family。 He is involved in his kid’s lives。 He loves his wife。 They ate dinner together。 He stayed committed to not being gone more than 2 weeks at a time。 A challenging feat for a pro golfer。 He was a man of faith。 I enjoyed hearing about the life lessons that are outlined in this book。 I th I enjoyed hearing more about Jack Sr through is something Jackie。 Of all the golf greats, I’ve long admired the Golden Bear, Jack Nicklaus。 I’ve learned more of why this is the case。 He has values focused on family。 He is involved in his kid’s lives。 He loves his wife。 They ate dinner together。 He stayed committed to not being gone more than 2 weeks at a time。 A challenging feat for a pro golfer。 He was a man of faith。 I enjoyed hearing about the life lessons that are outlined in this book。 I think, it’s so daunting at times to be a parent。 I worry if I’m being a good enough example。 Hearing from books like this remind me to be present, be loving, and be human - to simply do my best and try to improve as I go。 To acknowledge my errors, and stay positive。 The story of the boxing gloves for Christmas and the extreme focus Jack showed while putting at Augusta and completely tuning out a car wreck just 30 yards away were memorable among many others。 I appreciate the good things that Nicklaus companies do。 Jack Nicklaus is the GOAT。 Just sayin’! 。。。more
Karin,
I found this to be a pleasant, actually delightful read。 Loved reading the anecdotal stories of growing up with Jack Nicklaus as your father。 Plenty of behind the scene and background content that illustrate the "Golden Lessons"。 Even tho' I'm not a golfer nor do I follow it much, this was a welcome, interesting read。 I found this to be a pleasant, actually delightful read。 Loved reading the anecdotal stories of growing up with Jack Nicklaus as your father。 Plenty of behind the scene and background content that illustrate the "Golden Lessons"。 Even tho' I'm not a golfer nor do I follow it much, this was a welcome, interesting read。 。。。more
