For author Jim Dodson, the game of golf is more than drives and chip shots. He tells Prime Time Radio host Mike Cuthbert that golf provided the backdrop for many of the most important moments in his life.

In his New York Times bestseller "Final Rounds," Dodson describes how golf affected his relationship with his ailing father; in his new book, "A Son of the Game," he recounts his efforts to impart some of the sport's mystique to his own son.
