I played golf for a living for 15 years at Ryder Truck Rental. Took customers to Doral, leave on Thursday, come back Sunday afternoon. Took my Playability test twice to become a club pro. Missed the cut by 2 strokes the first time and 4 strokes the second time. Both times the draw gave me a course I hated.

My woods are hand-me-downs from my father, 1966 Macgregor Tourneys. Yes, they are real wood, solid persimmion, not laminated. My irons are 1970 M/T also, they cost me the $15 entry fee for the club tournament where I won them. I'm still putting with a Ping Anser putter that I paid $20 to Karsten Solheim when he visited my club in the late 60s. I have newer clubs, but I am something of a traditionalist. I wore a dress shirt and tie when I played in tournaments, just like Bobby Jones.
