Hal sutton - College/Prep 4/Ball - A cold drizzly day at Northeood CC. Hal shot 63 with his own ball - my partner and I beat him and his partner by 1 shot in a 2/day event - to this day, don't know how - impressive round from a then 17 year old.
Tom Kite - partner in Coors Lajet Classic in early 1980s - our team won by 3 shots while I played one of my worst rounds ever as our A player and our 21 handicap D player shot 81 with a net 1 and 3 on the last two holes - a par 3 and a par 5, LOL!

Bruce Litzke - Sr Tour Championship Pro-Am in OKC - what a smooth swing and great player he was.- and a real gentleman

David Toms - practice round for US Open qualifier at ChAmpions GC in Houston in mid-90s - learned from David that day that I had taught him Jr. Golf lessons when he was around 5-6 yrs old at Huntington Park in Shreveport. I'll take all the credit for his success, LOL!

Willie Wood - numerous - Wiilie's dad gave me some sage advice many years ago - if you can't beat that 5'2" 15 year old consistently (Willie at the time) then don't waste your time

Gil Morgan, Bob Tway, Scott Verplank - occassional pick-up games.

Willie played at our municipal course, Mallard Cove, in Lake Charles and his Dad (Willard) was our pro. Willard Wood was the first person I ever took golf lessons from. Willie, despite his Wee Willie size, he could play damm good golf. His sister, Deanne, was a great player also. Played against him in high school golf (I use "played against" loosely, as he always kicked our butts).
