arnold ball bit carried early jack maybe names palmer played sam senior tour
This tour is name-driven, always has been and always will be. Arnold Palmer and Sam Snead carried the ball on the early part of the Senior Tour and they made it work. Then we had (Lee) Trevino come on and Jack (Nicklaus) played a little bit. We have to try a little bit harder, because maybe we don't have the names of that type.
ball cannot coming face front hole leave putt rather
A putt cannot go in the hole if it's short. I'd rather face a four-footer coming back than leave the ball on the front lip.
ball time
Any time you play in a USGA Championship, if you don't drive the ball on the fairway, you're dead. You're done.
ball best chip club hitting late putt struggled swing though until won
I didn't learn how to swing a golf club until late in my career. And even though I won all those tournaments, I still struggled with consistency, and I relied on my strengths, which were hitting the ball long and high, and I could chip and putt with the best of 'em.
balls hit thrown
I could only hit balls thrown down at my feet.
ball carry face hold instead open popping release shot square target toe toward turn uphill
It may be the most misunderstood shot of all. I play the uphill shot with a square clubface (rather than an open face) and let the toe turn over and release through the ball (rather than hold the face open). That way, the ball will carry toward the target instead of popping up short.
ball cold foot four hit hole hot tee within
It was kind of a hot and cold day, ... It was very hot, as I hit the ball within a foot of the hole four times today. But my play off the tee was not very good.
ball close conditions driving easy half hit hole soft wind
I hit the ball pretty close to the hole all day, ... It was an easy day to score. The wind wasn't blowing. The TPC of Dearborn, when the conditions are soft like this, if you're driving the ball half decently, you're going to do pretty well.
businesses expensive recycling small ways
Recycling can be expensive for small businesses. There are usually ways they can do it, but for some businesses it's unrealistic.
anybody circuit dreams fare gonna harder step taking whether work
My career was one of just taking it step by step. I didn't know how I was gonna fare on the professional circuit when I qualified. I didn't know whether I was gonna make a dime. I didn't know anything but this one thing: I had some dreams, and I was gonna work harder than anybody out here to ply my trade.
maintain struggles trying
We've been having struggles trying to keep enough volunteers. Now we're trying to maintain what we have.
chance close good hit putting today
Today was uneventful, I hit very little close and when I did nothing went in. I need to have a good putting day to have a chance and salvage the tournament.
add opportunity prioritize project table taking
We'll have an idea on how to prioritize each one of these items. Taking some off the table completely, and see if there's an opportunity to add anything to the project list.
cancer capital carve create direction economic emphasize hoping increase low moving niche research trying
We're moving in the right direction, ... We need to emphasize not just low costs, but amenities like our riverfront development. We're trying to carve out an economic niche with plant-made pharmaceuticals that will create higher-paying jobs. And we're hoping to increase our intellectual capital with cancer research at the hospital's cancer center.
