Guessing Lickliter.

I vividly remember a playoff in the Buick involving

Lickliter

and Phil Mickelson where Phil hit his tee shot into the canyon and then some "Good Samaritan" found it for him after he didn't want it found because his provisional was in good shape.  Then he had to trundle back to the tee and hit again, and I don't remember what happened after that.  But I'm just gonna guess he lost the playoff, and I'm gonna guess that may have been 2001, so I'm going with

Lickliter

A free haircut???  I thought you were a doctor? :bugout:

I'll pass this time (well any time, seeing as how I have no hair :-P ) but thanks anyway.

I've been trying to pass that coupon off on someone for 2 years now. It doesn't expire. Maybe they could do a scalp massage, buff and polish?

I would have guessed Nobilo. I had a (very short)  meet with him and his wife Selena at a charity function. Even in person It was hard to understand him.

No big miss on my part as I don't have that much hair to cut anyways. :-P

In My Bag:
A whole bunch of Tour Edge golf stuff...... :beer:

    • I tried hybrids way back when Titleist introduced the orange copper Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.    
    • The last time I played Maxfli balls, Dunlop was still making them. How long ago was that? Mostly, though, I used to play Top Flites (original 336 dimple model) when Spalding was still making them. Now I play the Pro V1x. Last time that I ordered some, Titleist was still making them. Let's see how long that lasts.
    • Once, on a course in Middleton, Massachusetts that I used to love but has since closed down,  I hit the wrong half of a huge, UK style double green.  Then I made the hundred foot putt.  Tough to  forget that one.
    • No. But if I can still play next year, I'll almost certainly be even worse. That's the reality of not being young.🙁  
    • I use GPS;  it may not be as accurate, but neither am I.
