Ep 70S2 Ep70: Is Golf Getting Healthier

This week a friend of Jeff's, Ryan Groves from Force Plates, stops by the golf cave and we all just talk about various topics in golf. For instance, our favorite parts of "The Match" with Tiget, Phil, along with Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Two G.O.A.T.S. on the course at the same time. Pretty cool! You have probab;y found it difficult to get a tee time during the quarantine. All of the open golf courses have been extraordinarily busy. But that doesn't mean the golf business is healthy. Equipment sales, food and beverage sales, clothing, etc. sales are all hurting badly. In fact, there is a lot of equipment that isn't even available because most American factories have been closed. Then Jeff suggests a fool proof way to get more folks playing golf: make the 18th hole play much easier than it looks. We suggest a few idea, including some sort of bumpers like they use in bowling alleys. And, of course, the bonus content is from 2 years ago. Kevin Rosenburg talks about his golf simulator company, P3 Pro Swing. All in all, yet another fantastic hour of golf talk radio with Those Weekend Golf Guys Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Ep 69S2 Ep69: Murder Of A Golf Legend

While in her 20's, Marion Miley was already a golf legend. Between 1931 and 1938, she won six Kentucky Women’s Amateur events. She also won many of the nations premier amateur events for women. Among her wins were two Trans Championships, two Women’s Southerns, two Women’s Weston Amateurs, two Western Derby titles and the Augusta Invitational. She also had made two of the prestigious Curtis Cup teams. While women’s amateur golf was in its glory days, as the Ladies Professional Golf Association had not yet evolved, golf offered little financially when it came to the future for women. Marion Miley, however, was making it in spite of the country being bogged down in Depression. Often described as photogenic, she made for good interviews and as a result she was seen in newspapers and movie theater newsreels. Standard Oil of Kentucky took advantage of her celebrity and hired her to travel about and inspect their service stations. She had only started to parlay her talents that exceeded her golf. She was in the company of Bob Hope, Clark Gable and Bing Crosby, playing in more than 100 charity events, and her distance off the tee made her even more popular. She could hit the ball further than Hall of Famer Patty Berg, and during a driving contest at one of the tournaments outdistanced 1932 Olympic champion Babe Didrickson. Marion Milet was murdered in a botched robbery attempt at the Lexington Country Club in Lexington Kentucky. Our guest this week is Beverley Bell who has just published the definitive work on The Murder Of Marion Miley. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
