Poor SamWritten by Jim McLellan
"Sam don't know a damn thing about hitting a golf ball".....oh yeah, who says? What gives this guy right to say such a thing about a fellow golfer? If he is so smart wouldn't he say "Sam doesn't know anything about hitting a golf ball?" This guy can't be very bright and he is certainly no gentleman. What about Sam? Does he know anything about hitting a golf ball? If this guy says he doesn't and he is right.....shouldn't we assume that he is propably not very good at it? Makes perfect sense to me! Real estate millionaires know a lot about real estate. Stock market millionaires are experts on stock market. Chess masters have an awesome inventory of chess moves. Experts in general know a ton about their field. So if one doesn't know a damn thing about what he is doing, he can't do it very well. Should we agree then that more we know about a subject better we will do? The kid in class who looks like Bill Gates, and studies a lot - gets A's this applies to school, and investments, and generally everything? Everything? Sure everything! Let's apply this brilliant radical information to golf. The more we know about "IT" better we should do. After all, nearly every waking moment is spent thinking. How should I do my job. How do I get to work. How do I pay my bills. What is 3+3.....heady stuff like that.... If "Sam don't know a damn thing about hitting a golf ball" . . . . that's got to be his problem. Some know-it-all said he doesn't. He has to be a lousy golfer. No information = failure. Did you ever take a test where you didn't know anything about subject matter? Let's see your report card, Einstein.

Top of Mountain: The Masters, Augusta, GAIf you’re a stockbroker, center of world is New York. If you are a commodities trader, it’s Chicago. But if you’re a golfer, center of world is…a little further south. “You actually feel it when you step onto course” says Brian Montgomery, who has been to every Masters for last decade. “It’s like being in an art museum or a history museum—and if you really live for golf, this isn’t just church, it’s St. Peters Cathedral on Christmas Eve.” For as those who have walked course will tell you, there is no place like Augusta. “It’s pristine, not like other tournaments, no paper, no advertising, just green everywhere and So perfect. I mean, you see it on TV, and you think, I could do that, then you see course and you think: “Par Four?!? FOUR?!? That’s like a…NINE. And these guys come out and do it in four and it’s just amazing.”
