Sorry Rick, like Steve, I know all of them too. Jackie Burke, like many others, had a line of clubs out and his woods were the best ones I ever owned. That too was way before the days of the BIG drivers.....I often wonder what my Old Man could have done with one of those. And Dow Finsterwald might have been better noticed and remembered had not Arnold Palmer come along in the early TV days. Palmer was charismatic and one hell of a competitor which overcame the piss poor swing.

When the PGA was in Columbus, I went everyday and followed my two favorites from those times.......Julius Boros who had the most fluid swing I ever saw and "Champagne" Tony Lema who played the most relaxed game I can remember. He was technically very good but had mastered the mental aspect of the game completely.
