I was flipping channels last night and happened to run across an
episode of 'I Love Lucy' featuring Jimmy Demeret. It was probably shot
sometime in the 50's but I'm not sure.
Anyway, Ricky and Fred tried to get rid of the wives (while on the
golf course) by making up a bunch of stupid rules. The guys ended up
being paired with Demeret in some sort of pro-am and Lucy and Ethel
turned the tables on them by getting 'in' with Demeret. He actually
hit a couple of balls during the show and *really* looked smooth.
I was pleased to catch this even though I only saw the last 10
minutes. Ben Hogan did a movie once. I'm pretty sure it was with Dean
Martin and Jerry Lewis but I don't recall the title.
Anyone know of any other movies or sitcoms that have shown some of
the legends of golf?

One thing I forgot to mention in the base note - At the end of the
show, Jimmy did a 'hop, skip and jump' into his address position, then
hit the ball. Pretty wild!!

glenn ford playing ben hogan...hogan did hit some of the shots
in the movie but you never saw his face...

The Dean Martin/Jerry Lewis movie was "The Caddy" with Martin being
the Pro trying to make it on the tour and Lewis his caddy. I think
Hogan appeared as himself in this one.
