Where did these come from?

[Mike O]

Just for conversation- I'm not really sure on the following but just throwing some ideas out without a lot of thought (Bucket - Don't go there!)
3.Keep your mind in your hands.____________Kelley
I'd say Ben Doyle on this one- not Kelley
8.The LAW's of golf________________Wasn't there a book on this recently by Tomasai or Doc "Sutty"- based on body types or something. Now that I think of it- I'm sure Wiren might be correct but that "new" book seems to have a similar name
9.Swing the instrument.___________ That would be Bucket- so he tells me.
16.Swing the Bucket._______________Mike O. aka Voodoo Doctor
26.The heave______________Bucket- Yes, Yes!
29.The long putter_____________ I met a guy in Florida around 1983- used the long putter then- former Marine/Army/Navy? guy- I think he played professionally but had back or leg problems so he used the long putter. I also believe he swung all of his full shots - left hand low. Nice guy! Name is on the tip of my tongue but can't remember who it was. Maybe I can get some help here. I'm guessing he was probably 45-55 at that time- would have been in Vietnam- when he was younger.

See my post above in the quote- messed up - the above is not really Drewit's quote- but my follow-up post.

Very good!

Yes, the Ball Flight Laws, I believe were by Dr. Gary Wiren, and some believe some are not quite correct. The LAW's of Golf were by Adams, Suttie, and Tomasi, and had to do with body type and flexibility, as these relate to the type of swing technique you employ...Arc, Width, or Leverage.

Here are some more...

Par 4 1/2 _______ USGA

I think USGA is just going retro. I remember playing plenty of them with balata. Can't imagine what the boys thought with pre-balata balls.

Drewit- you've got this stuff down- you might be "in-operable"- We'll need to move you up to floor 5 with Bucket and the other problem children!

32. I knew Gary Adams- I thought he was a brilliant guy in the golf field- regarding equipment concepts and marketing- Gary always had a new idea. I certainly missed him when he left us early.

33. Sorry Drewit but you got this one wrong. I know for a fact that Bucket was slamming Doughnuts down at a phenomenal rate - way before Pelz showed up on the scene! There is no way that Pelz could ever catch him. P.S. just for kicks- since I haven't read Pelz- what is the "Doughnut Effect"- I'm looking for a serious answer- no silly azz slippery, greasy, cardiac blockage, Bucket post That's right - you heard me greasy spoon- go crawl behind your sofa.

The Doughnut Effect or Lumpy Doughnut refers to the numerous footprints each group makes arround the cup on the putting surface. The more groups that play each hole, the more footprints are made arround the cup, however, the one foot radius arround the cup remains untouched. The depressions from each player's foot makes a doughnut effect arround the cup. Pelz had his putting machine roll balls at the hole without footprints arround the hole and then with footprints. The results were, you guessed it, less putts made as soon as the first foursome of the day played the hole. So if you miss a putt, it may not be your fault; simply, you may have hit a lump doughnut.

Thanks DSS! That's it- I'm going with Charlie Owens on the Long Putter - early 80's! Although, I'm sure they probably had a long putter in 1910 or something- but until someone goes deeper than early 80's I'm sticking with Charlie Owens.
