Sam Snead
I've said a thousand times, you can't go into a shop and buy a good golf game.
Sam Snead
There are no short hitters on the tour anymore - just long and unbelievably long.
Sam Snead
'You know Bobby, when I was your age I'd drive the ball right over those trees at the corner.' Feeling challenged Mr. Cole hit a big driver right into those big trees. Snead then said 'Of course, when I was your age, those trees were only 10 feet high.'
