| I'll start by telling what I have requested.
I have asked the wife for a framed print of Jack and Arnie playing
the 16th at Augusta in '73. This was the last time Nicklaus and
Palmer were in the final pairing together at the Masters. It's a
print of a painting and I found it in a publication called Southern
Links.

Assuming money's no object:
I would like a lifetime member ship to the TCP in Ponte Verde FLA.
I was lucky enough to play the Stadium course last week and it was
everything it should have been. I even parred the 17'th!!

************************ Well now lets see...! *******************
A gift certificate for a series of lessons (with who ?)...
A set of iron heads, clones of the Hogan Edge, so I can make
my own set...
Titanium shafts for the above...
About six dozen balls of various types...
A winter golf trip....
A membership at (?) some nice private course...
This could go on for ever, but these are the basics...

| 474.8 | I Believe in Santa!!! | JAWS::DIAZ | La Ultima y Nos Vamos | Mon Dec 19 1988 11:28 | 16 |
| I guess that top in my list will be to move the whole New England
further south so I could still have the New England feeling and all
year round golf.
And then after I had transformed the US:
- A house with the backyard overlooking a championship course
(Membership included of course!!)
- A golfing wife (This will come sooner or later)
- The Yonex clubs I mentioned in other note
- A single digit handicap

Mike is I had the real thing, I'd never look at a calendar! Of
course I might not play much golf either,
but I'd take the risk. :-}

| 474.10 | 1st Choice-Jan 2nd Choice-Jones | ODIXIE::WESTCL | Gator Golfer | Wed Dec 21 1988 10:53 | 10 |
| Jan Stephenson would be my first choice, too. However, in absence
of such choice turf, I hightly recommend the Bobby Jones video tape
package that includes two video tapes and a book about Jones by
Chas Price. The cost is about $200-250 depending on where you
purchase. There is also a single video tape by Jones for about
$65.00. I haven't seen it. The $200+ package is absolutely marvelous.
If anyone wants details of what is included, I will be happy to
respond.

RE: .11 + .13
Actually 460 was SUPPOSED to be just a club wish list, this note
was any golf items...
So, how did Santa to in the way of golf items for you all?
Santa came through for me with a golf/Disney vacation starting
Feb. 8th.....!!!!! It will be the first time to Disney and the
first time to play golf down in Florida (the count down starts,
can't wait)...!

The closest I got was a notepaper holder shaped as a piece of bent
aluminium with a golf club and -ball on it. Not even some golf balls!

| 474.16 | some goodies | MJOSWS::FAGLEY | beat the resident | Tue Dec 27 1988 09:54 | 7 |
| The boxes from Austaads contained an indoor putting mat and a
chipping basket (the word is out on my short game). I also picked
up a new umbrella and a dozen XL's. Not to whine, but I really
didn't want the practice aids. Who has time to practice if you
play every day from March to November?

| 474.17 | A search for a better swing.... | WORDS::NISKALA | Still paying for Xmas '87! | Tue Dec 27 1988 10:11 | 5 |
| Got a dozen of Pinnacle 384's. Also got a perfect gift! 4
�hr golf lessons at Amherst CC. I need this desperately to develop
a better swing. I've kept on saying I need some lessons, but I never
get around to it, but since the missus got me this on a gift
certificate I now have to take them. Thanks, dear!

| Did okay...
Golf ball imprinter (so I don't confuse my hacked-up "apples" with
anyone else's)
"GOLF, The History of an Obsession," a very flossy coffee-table
book, full of interesting trivia and wonderful pictures (but what's
most interesting is how one can write a history of golf from the
15th century to the present without mentioning Arnold Palmer!)
Hogan Series 56 metal driver, 12 degrees loft, #3 shaft (regular flex)
Trick golf ball that will not roll straight on putts, and explodes
on impact if hit off the tee (just what I needed)
Oversized Nicklaus putter to replace all the other putters that
never worked right
