Cool tape. Bought originally to watch Stewart but this is only one small segment. His segment shows him 'spot chipping' without looking up, so he can determine 'feel' for where the chip is landing Other features include a good descriptive sales pitch on Virginia's Homestead and Greenbriar - excellent, having played the Cascades courses. Some short lessons by Nicklaus, Palmer, Lietske, Zoeller, Mahaffey and good narrative by Tony Jacklin and then Peter Alliss as to how the Brits and later Europeans came on strong in the Ryder Cup after years of USA domination. I had a personal interest in watching Frank Hannigan discuss the line of a putt - he followed me for two holes at an early 70's Publinx National and I got to talk to him several times - he conveyed the Publinx was much as any other USGA sponsored event like the Open - really made one feel good. An unlisted 'double plus' is a short (unlisted) segment on showing the construction of a Powerbilt Citation persimmon wood - it is done in speed-up format but you can see all the steps - a real automated process - they refer to the introduction of the 'oxymoronic' metalwood although Pinseeker had introduced the Bomber metalwood 15 years earlier in 1975.
