  Tom Paul,

 What a charmed life. When I was a kid the only time I went to Macdonalds was for a birthday or after I pitched a no-hitter in little leage. Loved the happy meals.

A no hitter?  That's cool.  The only no hitter I ever had was last week when I missed all 14 fairways and all 18 greens.  :P

  You have been golfing with Garland too much Bill. When I was a kid I had an amazing slow ball.

I was one pitch away from a no-no...the bastage.

But i played in a really good Little League where no-nos were not very common either.. ;D

The 13 yr old all-star team from my league made it to the World Series my last year in and the 14-15 yr old team made it to the World series when i was 12.

So what's the big deal Kalen? They let everyone into the LL WS. They even let Taiwan in!

   Could CBM's introduction to OTM by his grandfather an R&A member be a defining moment in American golf?

Anthony,

You have to know/remember that CBM was not the only one to sit at the feet of OTM. Ross also was perhaps strongly influenced by OTM.
