Hooked: What the Game Is Really Doing to You
You can't stop.
You know it's just a game. You know a three-foot putt shouldn't have this much power over you. You know the anger, the shame, the obsession—none of it makes sense.
And yet here you are. Hooked.
This is the story of Jack—a CEO who built an empire but couldn't break 80 without breaking himself. A man who threw clubs, destroyed relationships, and said "fucking worthless" loud enough for clients to hear.
What he discovered in a therapist's office didn't just change his golf game.
It set him free.
This isn't a mental game book. There are no tips, no techniques, no breathing exercises. This is something deeper—an understanding of what the game is really doing to you, and why you keep coming back to something that causes so much pain.
If you've ever wondered why a game has this much power over you, this book will show you what's really going on.
And how to finally stop fighting yourself.
A golf psychology story that reveals why the game has you trapped—and how one man finally broke free. Includes bonus Q&A video with author Mike Madden.
