The Natural Golf Swing by George Knudson and Lorne Rubenstein. Really enjoyed it! Got the kindle e-book version.
The Elements of scoring by Raymond Floyd.

'Moe and Me' by Lorne Rubenstein. Coincidentally, just as I finished this book I was in a funeral home in the Waterloo area helping to finalize a service for my mother-in-law and they had a huge carpet and pictures of Moe everywhere. He happens to be buried there.

Tales from Q-School (John Feinstein), The Match (Mark Frost) and Afternoons with Mr. Hogan (Jody Vasquez ) are some of the better ones I've read lately

Rookie on Tour was quite a good read.
Written by Carl Paulsen who documented his up and down life trying to earn and KEEP his card on the PGA Tour.
He earned a little over three million dollars over a 15+ year career but appears to be out of pro golf at this point, partly due to back issues. A good story and a good read about a guy and a life you wouldn't hear much about otherwise...
