several Publink Championships and hold the record
of consective matches won, before going on the Tour.

Thanks, Donn.

R.H. Sikes was a great player, and I know you enjoyed being there. One of the benefits of a long life is actually experiencing history, not just reading about it.

A quick story:

Way back when, my daughter, Ashley, was going through some homework questions for her history class. It was mostly post-World War II stuff, but she hadn't done much work and didn't have a clue. Effortlessly, I answered every one . . . correctly!

Her response?

"No fair, Dad. You were there!"

You are correct sir . . . apologies . . . I was clicking around on that Historic Golf Photos site looking for some stuff. I remember a Sikes dude that look like he had it on the hands only plane to me anyway. Got a lil' confrusedid (not hard to do for Bucket).

By the way that is one fantastic site for anybody who loves to look at sequences and old pics.
