stuff on Golf Channel?
These All Star golf shows are kind of interesting. They were broadcast in the late 50's. Man, things have changed in nearly 60 years:
Black and white broadcast with no more than two cameras. "Graphics" are an artist's rendition of the hole with white dots showing where shots went.
People driving and parking their cars on the course.
The agronomy.
Distance. Palmer is in his late 20s. Most of his drives are between 250 and 280. Long par 4s are 415 yards.
Approach shots. Nobody is spinning the ball and attacking the flag. It's all about landing it short and rolling it up. It is rare to have a ball stop inside 5 feet.
