Customer Reviews

A book for every golfer

I bought one for a friend and another for myself. If you play golf, you think that maybe the results of some of your own golf shots may not be so bad. Even if you don't play golf, the pictures are funny and interesting (as long as it is someone else's ball). Well worth the money.

Great photos

I bought this book as a gift for a friend, but ended up sharing it with various family before wrapping it up. It was also the hit of the party when it WAS opened. Very entertaining and a book easy to pick up and look at more than once. A hit for golfers or those who enjoy a photo with a message.

Lost Balls and Other Bad Lies

WONDERFUL book for golfers... or as a gift to golfers. Photos are crisp and lovely, lies are unimaginable and even inconceivable! Makes those of us who do NOT play golf wonder why others do, and should make golfers offer prayers of thanks that they have never, never had shots to play like these... Wonderfully fast shipment of pristine condition books!

Lost Balls- a great photgraphic journey

Charles Lindsay has captured the true soul of golf with this photographic journey through some of the most interesting places in the world. This book is perfect for the person who truely loves and understands the game of golf. His combination of humor and photographic genius make this a wonderfully entaining book for anyone who has ever played the game. I hope there is a sequel.

Better than "How To Line Up Your 4th Putt"

Charlie Lindsay is an irreverant guy with an unfailing eye. He sees what others don't and makes you grin for the joy of discovery he has had with his camera out in nature searching for the bizarre and wonderful on and around the golf course. Be it a golf ball tucked neatly under a "meadow muffin" or a pair of golf shoes hanging from a tombstone, be prepared for a visual feast where golf and golf courses are the metaphor. What a treat. What a great gift!! I've sent a dozen already and it's early in the day.
