Re: Golfers.

In 1956, I caddied a round or two for [link|http://www.alibris.com/search/search.cfm?qwork=2426524&matches=38&qsort=r|Claude Harmon] in a benefit tournament. Got to see some amazing shots.

Claude Harmon won the Golf Masters Championship in 1948. I had no idea how famous he was at the time.

That was back..

...when shotmakers were common. The game is different now...favoring the bombers and wedge players. Guys like Harmon and later Ballesteros, who could chip it from a parking lot have it hop twice and stop within 5 feet are relics...distant memories of when the hardest game invented was even harder.
