Beyond the Score: Relationship Keys for Golf and Life

by Jim Sheard

Most golfers strive to improve their scores. But like any pursuit it is empty without meaningful relationships with people and with God. In Beyond the Score, author Jim Sheard guides the reader to look beyond the last scorecard to the relationships that happen on and off the course. In an easy to read format, Sheard inspires others to pursue relationships with the same drive to succeed. Beyond the Score offers eighteen relationship keys based on the Scriptures and wisdom. He states, For me, it is much more than a book about golf, it is a book about relationships, horizontal relationships with other people and the vertical relationship with God through Jesus. Performance on the course is important, but relationships last Beyond the Score. Beyond the Score is a book you will want to keep around for years. And it s the perfect gift for friends, executives, and team members. Jim Sheard is an industrial psychology and human resources expert. After a 35-year career in corporate America, he has authored and co-authored eight books including *In His Grip* which has sold over 750,000 copies.

Won Beyond the Score and I LOVED it! "The only way of really finding out a man's true character is to play golf with him." On or off the golf course, this book is a beautiful, inspirational tool for building strong relationships through honesty, integrity, kindness and service. Highly recommend Beyond the Score as a gift for the golfer in your life.

I won a free copy through goodreads first reads.

First off, this book was visually pleasing. The cover was magnificent and the pictures inside were great.

I enjoyed many of the tips and plan on trying to use them in order to relate to people better.

I'm not a golf player, so I couldn't fully relate to the book, so I'm sure anyone who is would enjoy this book much more.
