The photo on the first page of the guy with the beard... it looks like he's lining up his putt. That's what I think of when I picture golf history.

Imagine him watching you swing... "Git offa mah course!" Kinda creepy.

These old photos are neat. Lots of history. Thanks!

I don't play golf, I play at golf. There's a difference.

Now here's a golf swing! That's me taking a lesson from my dad who was a PGA Professional in Maine. July 2, 1958.

Thanks! I do. Now, years later, I wish I had paid a lot more attention to what he was telling me.

After looking at these pictures ill never feel ackward smoking while playing a round again.

I hope you don't mind a modern view of a classic image. I suppose I can convert to black & white and pretend!

Never use a paragraph when a sentence will do.


Harry Vardon teeing off at Fall River Country Club on October 20, 1900. The clubs is still there today, and is a few minutes away from my office. I absolutely love this picture (and hope to play there soon).

Love this one.  Note the water bucket and box of sand for making your tee.  Truly old school. :beer:

    • Day 65 - 2024-12-04 Helped @NatalieB with her stuff on the force plates, then hit some balls working on the left wrist stuff. Picking up the club.
    • Day 216 (4 Dec 24) - Dink and roll Weds - working on the green side short game covering 5-10 yd chips to low running pitches to about 50 yds (I have accommodating neighbors).  Focused on keeping stance more narrow, eye target about 2” in front of the ball AND not looking up until I see the ball leave.  This drill has really enhanced my confidence in making more consistent ball strikes.  
    • As a supporter of the European team even though I chose to live in the US, this is kind of good news. I'm pretty close to Bethpage, but won't be going at these prices. Neither will the crazy drunk NY sports fans who would have made this a very difficult place to play as a Euro. The tickets will go to the city types who are entertaining clients and don't care about the money. Many of them are going to sit there and watch, not get all raucous. I am not dumb enough to believe that this is going to be like a Sunday afternoon stroll in the park for the Euros, but I think it will be significantly more subdued as a result of the prices. Even at $250 I would probably have been watching on the TV anyway so no real skin in the game.
