If you enjoy the game, you must learn about Moe!

I just recently learned about Moe Norman and had to dive deeper, and boy I'm glad I did. A unique story about golf's best pure striker. Never was there a golfer to mirror Moe.

A must read/listen for anyone who champions individuality

This isn’t just a story about golf. It’s about a person who’s uniqueness threatened conventional norms. Moe’s response was to commit to doing the one thing that gave him unconditional love-playing golf. In doing so he became the greatest ball-striker the game has ever known. Thanks to the author for providing authentic insights into his golf, but as importantly, into the man. Superbly done!

Gaining an insight to Moe Norman

Moe Norman is one of the more interesting characters in golf over the last 50 years, arguably the greatest ball striker that ever lived. Due to some difficulties (believed to have had Asbergers but never diagnosed) he struggled with the other elements of the game and the tournament schedule.

This book goes some way to sharing Moe's story and is interesting, given Moe's utter devotion to hitting balls the story does not stray to far from the golf course or driving range. This is a well told story, good performance and is worth the read for anyone interested in the history of golf - For those that don't know of Moe Tiger Woods has described that Ben Hogan and Moe Norman are the only two to have ever really owned there golf swings.

Terrific Story

I found this book to be very entertaining, and inspirational. A great listen. Moe Norman was an extraordinary person, he was an artist.

Truly Enjoyable

Learning about this man, Mow Norman has been quite enjoyable. Loving the game of golf and learning about a hidden legend many have not known is special. If the search you can find that Moe is still affecting and touching the game and many players.
A treasure, so glad I found Mr. Norman. He was a gifted and special human. Great read!

Poor

Highly repetitive stories in no order or time line. Moe was an incredible player and this is poor telling.
