I was returning from St. Pete, Florida. Was flying United and there was a restaurant that was dedicated to Sam Snead professional golfer. He was a consumate hunter also. There were pics of his hunts and animals he harvested with his son, Andy Griffin, and friends. I am going to post pics of which I took with my phone.
He and son shot two elephants in Tanganyika.

The golf bag idea is great. Wish I had thought of that.

Somewhere I have book about famous golfers. There is a quote in it from Sam Snead that says "I only play golf so I can make enough money to hunt and fish" or something like that.


30+ years experience tells me that perfection hit at .264. Others are adequate but anything before or after is wishful thinking.
