Golf Books #260 (Go with. God, Hogan, and the Hybrid: Traveling Life’s Fairways: Stories, Truths, Wisdom)

Go with God, Hogan, and the Hybrid is J. Michael Meadows’ first book and showcases his life experiences in the context of stories, truths, and wisdom related to golf and the role it has played in his life.

The book is filled with dozens of stories of golf’s greats―Hogan, Trevino, Palmer, Floyd and many others―who have crossed paths with Meadows as he’s traveled (and played) life’s fairways. Go with God… is humorous, nostalgic, insightful, and empowering.

The author, who has escorted hundreds of golfers to Scotland and Ireland with his Golf in the Kingdom tour and golf travel company, shares numerous insights from a lifetime in business and golf. Readers will enjoy and come to embrace his Southern style (and -ims), the family and faith foundations upon which he has built a rich and rewarding life.

Whether it’s a story about Ben Hogan and his impact on the game of golf, Meadows’ founding of The Screen Door Open golf tournament, corporate life with IBM and Exxon, life as an entrepreneur in golf, or his views on food and fitness, readers will be engaged and entertained. He shares personal successes and failures as well as some truths of mental attitude dynamics and spirituality that have sustained him as he’s traveled the cartpaths of life.
