Paul Bertholy and Bob MacDonald's Blast From the Past
Daryl,

Thanks for cleaning up and posting these Bob MacDonald images. I sincerely appreciate it!

Bambam, let's put these in a prominent place in our Gallery. Thanks!


P.S. Interested readers should know that, in the spring of 1982, Paul Bertholy, then 80-something years young and one of the most esteemed PGA of America teachers, gave me his personal copy of Bob MacDonald's 1927 book, Golf. At the conclusion of our two-day training session at his home at Foxfire in Pinehurst, NC, he motioned me out of the front room to a nearby closet. He opened the door, rambled around for a minute or so, and emerged with Bob's book, the same one he had referenced several times in our study. He then offered it up in both hands and said, "I want you to have this."

I was grateful, but dumbfounded:

Why would he give away such a prized possession?

And why to me?

Only now am I starting to get the idea.

Sorry . . . I just bought this one (my third!). Keep your searches working, and you'll soon find your own.
