The Mulligan

A Parable of Second Chances

By: Ken Blanchard, Wally Armstrong

Narrated by: Arte Johnson

Now a major motion picture!

Everyone deserves a second chance on the course--and in life. Join golf pro Wally Armstrong and author Ken Blanchard as they condense decades of practical know-how into a simple book with an incredible, inspiring message: sometimes we all need a mulligan.

Meet Paul McAllister. An Ivy League-educated founder of a multimillion-dollar business, Paul was a success in almost everything except life and golf. It only took one Pro-Am afternoon, one short putt, and one airborne putter to send his world flying in a different direction: a mulligan!

Golf's gracious do-over, a mulligan, was the beginning of Paul's own second chance. Guided by the wisdom and advice of an old pro, Paul learned about priorities, self-confidence, and playing a good game both on and off the course. You'll learn all about:

• The importance of friendships
• The true meaning of forgiveness
• Detaching from outcomes and embracing positivity
• The value of having mentors to guide you along the way

Written in a parable style, The Mulligan will give you a second chance to change it all, improving your life and your golf game along the way.

Praise for The Mulligan:

"Wally Armstrong and Ken Blanchard not only understand golf, but life and the value of relationships. They have put together a story that should warm your heart, help your golf game, and just may touch your life."--Jack Nicklaus, golf legend and 1974 inductee to the World Golf Hall of Fame

"For those who have learned that golf is more than just a game, The Mulligan will be welcome reading that will provide helpful insights not just for their golf game, but for their lives as well."--Ben Crenshaw, two-time Masters Champion and 2002 inductee to the World Golf Hall of Fame

Exelente libro

Contiene muchas enseñanzas aplicables al diario vivir. Te hace reflexionar con una historia fácil de entender.

Changed me

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Absolutely. . .think we all have skeletons in our lives. They are sometimes very difficult to face. This book helped me to understand, that I don't have to do it alone. I have a caddie to assist me though life . . .or "The Course Less Played" If you are looking for that this book is a great start. Than as "The Mulligan" suggested I moved on to the book the "Old Pro" says has been on the best seller list for generations. . .The Holy Bible.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Mulligan?

For me two things:

"The Perfect Round" - I've already attested my card!
"The Ultimate Mulligan" - Thank God!

What about Arte Johnson’s performance did you like?

Well narrated.

What did you learn from The Mulligan that you would use in your daily life?

I've changed my routine. . .just as the book suggests. My priorities in life have changed, dramatically, and because of that I have a more positive outlook for my future. The Mulligan got me reading The Bible and now those nagging feelings of guilt, dread and depression are slowly fading away.

Any additional comments?

My prayers were answered when a good friend suggested I read this book. If you have any turmoil in your life. . .read it! It only takes a couple of hours.

Simple, practical & clear

Great story about God and life. Shows how impactful one life can be. Worth the read & reflection!

The Ultimate Caddy

More than a book this is a “Game Plan For Life” another great book that drills down on this one and complements it very much for those of us seeking the Ultimate Mulligan.

Time well spent!

This beautiful story is for the non-golfer as much as the golfer. Your life will be enriched by listening closely to the ole Pro.

Different view

Halfway thru u find out it's about having faith in God and Jesus. But it is presented from a unique view. I found it very thought provoking.

Mulligan ??? what did this have to do with golf?

Disappointed with the premise of this book. To Sappy and not about golf.
