Acerca de este título

“This wonderful tale is for all lovers of golf, especially the weekend hackers with embarrassing handicaps (like me). Now we have hope. If we can just find the magic clubs.”—John Grisham

A recently laid-off golf reporter. A down-on-his-luck caddie. And a magical set of clubs once owned by Jack Nicklaus. In this funny, feel-good novel, New York Times bestselling author and former ESPN reporter Gene Wojciechowski gives us a pair of unlikely champions unlike any other.

Joe is a golf reporter. He’s missed more Father’s Days than he cares to count because that’s when he has to cover the US Open. But his son Buddy has counted every single one.

Joe and Buddy’s relationship is fractured at best. Then one day at a garage sale Buddy finds a woefully obsolete set of golf clubs that supposedly belonged to Jack Nicklaus and decides to give them to his father as an olive branch. When Joe takes the clubs out on a whim, he discovers something unbelievable: he’s hitting 400 yards. No one hits the ball that far, not Tiger, not Nicklaus.

Max “Hard Way” Mitchell knows golf perhaps better than anyone. He used to be one of the best caddies on the PGA Tour. But he was run out of town after sleeping with a golf pro’s wife. Now he’s the owner of a run-down driving range, his glory days slipping away.

When Joe is laid-off, and Hardway realizes that with this magical set of golf clubs he is better than anyone on the tour, he convinces Joe to do the seemingly impossible—win the Masters as an amateur. And to do this they'll need each other. Told with a specificity that only comes from years of covering the sport, Gene Wojciechowski’s fiction debut, All Carry, is a father/son/unlikely friendship/comeback story that will no doubt be a new classic.

“This wonderful tale is for all lovers of golf, especially the weekend hackers with embarrassing handicaps (like me). Now we have hope. If we can just find the magic clubs.”—John Grisham

“Wojciechowski, a long-time ESPN golf reporter, is making his fiction debut . . . a father/son/unlikely friendship/comeback story all wrapped into one.”—Golf Digest

“Wojciechowski, who clearly knows of what he writes, has the wit and skill to pull it off. You’ll laugh and nod your head (as well as shake it) as this implausible, but hugely enjoyable, yarn unfolds.”Links Magazine

All Carry is the perfect novel for Masters week, or any week.”Chicago Tribune

“Running is strictly forbidden at Augusta National Golf Club. But run don’t walk to your nearest bookseller—or order it online without haste—because All Carry, the debut novel from Gene Wojciechowski, which has its climax at the home of the Masters, is that good.”—Golfweek

“Written with a specificity that only comes from years of covering the sport, Gene Wojciechowski’s fiction debut, All Carry, is a father/son/unlikely friendship/comeback story that will no doubt become a classic.”—Chicago Golf Report

“Wojciechowski is a multiple-Emmy-winning golf writer, and his on-tour, inside-the-ropes experience, particularly at the Masters, makes this long-ball tale come to vivid, magical life. If you love the game, you will savor every page. All Carry is an instant classic!”—Steven Pressfield, bestselling author of The Legend of Bagger Vance

“A novel that is nothing short of magical. A great golf yarn spun with a true insider’s knowledge of the game, a supernatural set of clubs at its center, and the natural swing of a writer who masters the course. All Carry not only finds the target but also touches the heart.”—Tom Rinaldi, Fox Sports reporter and New York Times bestselling author of The Red Bandanna

“An enjoyable modern fable for players and fans alike.”—Kirkus Reviews

“In the feel-good debut novel from sportswriter Wojciechowski (coauthor of The Bus), a middle-aged golf reporter’s magic set of clubs alters his view of the game—and life. . . . Filled with colorful characters and enough hilarious one-liners for a comedy roast . . . this has a ton of heart. Golf enthusiasts ought to tee it up.”Publishers Weekly
