  1. I started playing golf when I was 11 years old. I used my dads old golf set from the 1950's. I had a driver, 3-wood, 5-7-9 irons, and a flat head putter. The course I played on growing up was a short course around 6000 yds total, but did have four difficult holes on the course. Membership for those under 18 was $45 per yr unlimited play. In the summer when school was out my mother would drop me off at the course at 8:00am and pick me up around 8:00pm Monday thru Friday. I could play 18 holes walking in about 2 1/2 hrs, so I was able to get in about four rounds per day in. By the time I was in Middle School 7th, 8th, and 9th grade I had a 38 average for 9 holes. That was good enough to be the number one man on the golf team and was also the number one man on my High School team. After High School I got a job as Second Assistant and Caddy Master at Gary County Club in Gary, Indiana and participated in Pro Am golf tournaments in the area. The only major PGA tournament I played in was the 1980 Panasonic Open in Las Vegas. I was invited to play in the Pro Am and had a really great time. I determined that golf was not going to be my career so I moved to Denver and worked for Coors Brewing Co. At Coors we had a golf program that we played at a different course each weekend and I was the companies number one golfer with a 3 handicap. Left Denver and moved to Memphis when Coors purchased the Stroh's Brewery. Continued to play golf until my back went out and stopped playing golf. The last time I played a round of golf was in the yr. 2000. I really miss playing golf. Below are a few pictures when I was playing golf. The first one is in High School. I am the one in the white sweater. The second picture was at our city tournament which I was second place. I am on the right. The last picture I am with some of the qualifiers for a Pro Am in Hammond, Indiana. I am the second from the right.
