Bob Friend shares the story about falling in love with Scottish golf when he played in the 2016 Senior Open Championship at Carnoustie. He also talks about Jordan Spieth and the amount of time he's taking over shots before pulling the trigger, the sign of a clouded mind. I asked Bob what he looked for in a caddie and why it was a penalty for Segundo Oliva Pinto's caddie to touch the sand on the 18th hole of his match in the US Amateur Championship. John Cook shares memories from his time playing at Ohio State and helping them win the 1979 National Championship. We also talked about his 1978 US Amateur Championship victory over Scott Hoch, and his first win on Tour at the 1-81 Bing Crosby National Pro-Am in a 5 way playoff over some of the legends of the game in Hale Irwin, Bobby Clampett, Ben Crenshaw, and Barney Thompson. Top Instructor Bob Grissett talks set up, spine angle and the things he learned from legendary Instructors Bob Toski, David Ledbetter and Jack Grout.
