“Golf Is Not What You Think: The Finishing Touch” - A Heartwarming Journey from Frustration to Faith by Philip Ripley Ward

In this wonderful book, Ward shares his experiences, struggles, and triumphs spanning more than six decades in golf. He takes readers on a tour that transcends the game, touching on themes of faith, resilience, and the power of surrender.

Philip Ripley Ward’s career in golf began in 1979 when he embarked on a path filled with trials and tribulations. For many years, he navigated the challenging terrain of the golfing world, wrestling with frustration and the relentless pursuit of perfection. It was a job that demanded skill and an unwavering belief in oneself.

However, it was only after Ward experienced a profound rebirth, and a deep sense of surrender, that his perspective on golf and life began to change. He turned his trust toward a higher power—God.

Through Ward’s candid storytelling, readers will find inspiration in his newfound approach to the game and life. From consistently shooting in the mid to low seventies, he now regularly achieves scores in the mid to high sixties, with the occasional low sixties. His personal best—an unbelievable 28 for nine holes (par 36) and seven aces—are testaments to the accomplishments he embarked upon.

“Golf Is Not What You Think: The Finishing Touch” is not just a book about golf; it is a testimony. Ward’s truisms remind us that God’s grace can change our lives, even in the direst challenges and circumstances. It is an inspiring example of how giving to a higher power can result in productive heights of cohesiveness with the Supreme Being.
