What people are saying

"Michael Pardy makes poems off a very low handicap. He knows his way from tee to green, and man is he fun to watch when his drive finds the bunker or the trees. Pardy gets into trouble as well as any amateur, but he finds his way out like a pro. His poems are the most fun you can have without a stick in your hand. They are an hour or two in the nineteenth after your best round in years."
Mark Tredinnick OAM, Winner of Montreal Poetry Prize (Augusta for poets).

"Michael is well-known for his entertaining performances in venues around town. His sharp wit and compelling performance style enchants crowds and lifts everyone's spirits. I recently organised an event at Rahona Valley Cellar Door where Michael performed 30 minutes of non-stop golfing poetry. It made me want to get back to golf again."
Amy Campion, Radio Presenter

"Words are woven in magical delight with aviator sunnies, and a winking hot dot. Like a hole in one, Michael Pardy’s captivating poetry is a shot of absolute bliss."
Colin Ritchie, Editor of Footy Almanac

"I keep my copy in the side pocket of my buggy and dip into it anytime I need a lift."
Neil Forring, Piano Virtuoso

"I return to Michael's work knowing I'll be met with warmth, wisdom, and joy. Read him to play better golf."
Gavin Coyle, PGA Coach to the Stars

"A beautifully deft interweaving of romantic love and a ball game."
Daisy Wu Lee, Tour Caddie

"I heard Michael read at Cocoa Beach in Florida. His wonderful tribute to my dad, Alan, was very moving."
Laura Shepard-Churchley, Celebrity Astronaut.
