"Think country-club clinic meets Navy Seals training. I will pay any price, bear any burden, leave my home to follow the seasons, build my own swing studio in the basement, construct a practice green in my backyard. . . . Everything the big boys have access to, I want double." Like most amateur golfers, Tom Coyne had often wondered whether the pros won because they were more talented or because they were more obsessed. Overweight and burdened by a 14 handicap, he decided to find out for himself what it takes to play like a pro.Charting his journey, which included hiring top golf gurus such as Dr. Jim Suttie—Paper Tiger takes readers from the Michelob tournament (a win for Tom) to the Australian Tour—where forty-mile-per-hour winds and a driving rain scare off his Japanese partners. With each chapter, he tracks his weight alongside his handicap, pursuing his dream with a reckless abandon that comes to involve hardcore diets, pricey technology, even psychologists. With echoes of Dead Solid Perfect and Who's Your Caddy? Tom brings his uniquely edgy, deeply human perspective to a game that can simultaneously bring out the best and the worst in everyone who tries to master it.

I've become a huge fan of golf writer-adventurer Tom Coyne. After reading "A Course Called Ireland" and "A Course Called Scotland", I just had to follow up on his life saga before those two Celtic expeditions took place. "Paper Tiger" is well-written, and while not quite as emotionally-raw as the subsequent tales, provides a compelling insight into Mr. Coyne's attempt to gain a PGA Tour Card in his late 20s.While I don't possess a fraction of Tom Coyne's playing ability, I truly love the game, and since retirement have immersed myself in the sport. I work at a US Open venue as a Player Assistant and caddie (even looped for an LPGA Tour player at a local tournament), and have taken up playing with 100-year old hickory shaft golf clubs. So the "golf nerd" in me easily identified with Coyne's year-long attempt to become ready for competition at the highest level."Paper Tiger" really sets the stage for his later books; I highly recommend reading this one BEFORE virtually joining him in Ireland and Scotland.One more thing endeared this author to me; Tom is one of the most accessible writers ever, especially to fellow golfers who share his passion for the game and its history. He sponsors an annual golf trip to Ireland or Scotland, open to anyone captivated by the magic of golf's roots, and a fun time on the links.Tom Coyne has a special gift for communicating what drives him to play. Nothing phony or commercial about it. Check him out!p.s. The photo has nothing to do with this book, but illustrates just how much of a golf nerd I am...geeking out last December getting to hold the Open Championship's famous Claret Jug trophy! Yes, it's real...one of the benefits of working at the same course where Michael Greller (Jordan Spieth's caddie) used to loop.
