I read an article from 1993 where he was saying the same thing. At the time, he had 3 books ready to publish for the following year. They never did come out.
Me too.....and yes the Monday route is very disheartening....but in a way it was cool...and cruel...Tommy thanks for your correspondence...The chase on the mini-tours was cool too...My favorite was the summer chase of the North Atlantic Tour.....The New Hampshire Open in Keene...and of course the infamous Bangor Open in Maine....Just a small mini-tour stop for us..but to the folks up there..it was the closest thing to the real thing...they always treated us well...I'll never forget Chris Demarco playing in Keene a few groups ahead of us at Bretwood CC....You never know what dudes will make it big..but it's cool to know you've played with or in the same events as the guys that are making it big today....
And yeah..how many times have we all said "If only....."
My college teammate David Branshaw made it to the big time after 12 years chasing the mini tours...it takes a lotta $ and time to really learn how to get it done, when you're not quite as talented as Tiger, wealthy as Hal Sutton, and an attitude like Fulton Allem.....
But I learned a boat load form those experiences and from guys like Mac O'Grady....
As far as TGM....Lynn and this site got it goin on!!!
ANYTIME anyones's in New Hampshire it's memorable.....period
A friend of mine played with Jodie Mudd a few years ago, and yes, he still plays golf occasionally I believe. Jodie was a pretty fair ball striker himself. A similar question came up. Jodie said that Mac was the best out there, and could do it left, or right handed.
I believe they are talking about solidly hit, compressed balls. The sound of the strike, the ball speed, the ability to shape shots, and things like that.
I saw Mike Bennett, for example, hitting balls a few months ago. People were gathering around just to watch him on the range, and a tour player was near by, but they were mainly watching Mike. The sound of the ball being struck, the ball speed, and the quality of his shots stood out from the ordinary. This was when most people did not know who he was, but they could tell that something was quite different about the quality of his strikes.
I believe this is what they are talking about, in terms of ball striking. One would think that this type of thing would translate into good scores, and it sometimes does. Ben Hogan, was one of the best ball strikers, by this definition, and could also score quite well. Those that do not... there are many possible reasons... short game, mental aspects, management, etc..
