The Hole of the Third Eye
Take a man with a mid-life crisis, throw
in a mysterious golf guru, and add thought-provoking material on
physics, Eastern philosophy, business development and nursing home
practices. The result is a surprisingly warm and entertaining read.
Bob Cullen, co-author of
Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect.
Harry Morgan's life, due to his own inertia and inattention, has bottomed out. He's failed to live up to the start in life that his self-made father gave him, he's ashamed of his profession and his failed marriage, and his golf game stinks.
Then a strange old codger drifts into Harry's life. Joseph is an enigma: possibly unbalanced, perhaps not even real, he may have the secret of extraordinary golf. Harry presses him for help with his game, but Joseph insists that Harry first consider a series of other ideas: a strange mix of quantum physics, Eastern philosophy, and life questions. To appease Joseph, in order to gain his golf secrets, Harry accepts a series of single-page 'thought exercises.' As he completes each one, Joseph randomly shows up, offers a golf idea, and leaves Harry with another work sheet.
Harry's experience with Joseph finally culminates at an isolated Japanese Zen retreat: The Order of the Third Eye. There, the monks use an old-style golf course (requiring hickory shafts and gutta-percha balls) as a Zen exercise: a living koan.
Does Harry's life heal? Does his handicap
drop? Who is this strange old guy, anyway?
