Most of life's searches tend to be more fascinating than their destinations; the quest for entry into the exclusive club made up of the best competitive golfers in the world is no exception. Every golfer faces doubt and despair--they are as much a part of the game as woods and irons. But there is something just that much more doubtful and despairing about the game for those for whom the flag is just a tantalizing, agonizing, wedge away. Paulson, a former All-American at South Carolina, has shuttled between the rarefied air of the PGA Tour and the terrifying trenches of Q-School, and he recounts his journey--the small triumphs like shooting a 62 at the 1995 Disney Golf Classic, the frustrating heartbreaks, and all those nights along the way in cheap motels wondering if it's actually worth it--with candor and equanimity. Time, he knows, is running out on him. "I have always been fortunate," he admits, "that I have never been obsessed with making it to the very top. I have always focused on making the transition to the next level." Interestingly, it's his very level-headedness that may, in the end, keep him a few club-lengths from hitting his dream in regulation. --Jeff Silverman
