"When Golf was Fun" is a collection of tales from what is known as
the "beer and barbecue circuit" of golf tournaments. These
tournaments held in small town all across the state of Texas were
not only the beginning of the careers of many great golfers but
also produced some local legends. It was a time when golf was still
a game, not a big business. This collection of 38 stories will
entertain and amaze as you read first-hand accounts of some of the
greatest exploits in the history of golf. You will read about local
golf pros who are unknown outside of their local country club and
you will also read about legends like Ben Crenshaw, Bruce Lietzke,
Charles Coody, Miller Barber, Ben Hogan and others. Texas has a
very rich golf history and much of it is captured in "When Golf was
Fun." The late, great beer and barbecue circuit was a bygone era of
Texas golf in which many Lone Star legends were born and raised but
has since given way to the more civilized and organized golf
industry we know today. Much like baseball's barnstorming days, the
barbecue circuit was a series of unaffiliated events that brought
an extremely high level of golf and excitement to tiny towns like
Center and Athens; Quanah and Pampa-places you might otherwise
never have known even existed.
