Speaking
Of Golf
By JOB MAPLES
Thanks to the beautiful good
weather we have enjoyed in
Boone during the pait week,
there, is a good possibility that
the local course will open a
week earlier than planned. The
fine weather has enabled the
maintainance crew to run some
what ahead of schedule and if
it continues for a few days,
we should be able to complete
enough of the necessary work
to have the course ready to
open by this Friday. Lets keep
our fingers crossed and hope
for the best.
Guy Hunt caused quite a bit
of excitement down at the Tri
County Golf Course this past
Sunday by making the tint
hole in one scored on this
young layout and the first for
him also. Guy turned the trick
on the 140 yard sixth hole using
a six iron. He was playing with
Bert Ellis, Ray Farthing and
J. C. Cline. The host club had
a big surprise for Guy when he
got in off of eighteen. In honor
of the first "ace" on the new
course, he was presented with
a full set of golf clubs includ
ing a new bag and also one
years membership. This came
at a good time since Guy's
membership ran out on the
same day that he made the
"ace". He was excited enough
for making his first hole in one,
but the little party that they
gave him when his round was
over made him even more so.
His total score for the day, a
very respecable 86, and as Guy
said, "Its all there because Bert
kept score and he counts them
all."
Another member of the Hunt
family pulled off an Eagle on
the Tri-County Course last
week, Ronnie made an eagle on
the tenth hole the hard way.
After a good t?e shot on ton
par five hole, Ronnie hit his
second over the green then
chipped back into the hole for
the three. He ended up with
a score of 79, 'not bad for a
young lad who hasn't played
much since last fall.
The Carolinas PGA now has
two young professionals mak
ing a name for themselves on
the professional tour. First it
was Raymond Floyd of Fayette
ville winning one of the Flor
ida tournaments, his very first
money won since he joined the
tour in December and now
Larry Beck has played out
standing golf in the Azalea
Open at Wilmington and finish
ed in a tie for second place.
Larry was playing on a special
sponsor's invitation since his
players agreement with the
PGA has not been completed.
He was close to the leader Jer
ry Barber all the way, being
within one shot at times and
at the end of the first nine on
the final round drew even. But
at that point, Barber put on an
Arnold Palmer finish and {Alli
ed out in front by several shots.
Larry will be playing in the
Greensboro Open next week on
what could be called his "home
course" since he worked as as
sistant to Tom Case there for
almost a year, so he will bear
watching in this one.
