I listened to my older brother, Jim, but secretly I thought I knew as much about golf as they did. I wasn't Impressed by much but myself in those days. If there Is anything out of my ex perience worm passing on now to younner golfers, tt is this: "Don'e bo too coefcv. Listen to the older fellows. Pick up all the tricks of tho game you can. Don't practice too long at a time but get a good, easy awing and stick to It." I wasn't overly strong at first, espe cially when it came to these 72 hole tournaments.
