    crazy how much putters have changed, not much variety back… an 8802, an 8802 copy (Mickelson), two Ping Ansers and an Anser knockoff (Woods).

    Crazy to see how they were hitting drivers with 6.5 deg of loft on them.

    It is amazing how low the driver lofts were back in those days because of the wound ball spinning so high back in those days. Thanks to the Pro V1 and its competitors, lofts of 10.5 are pretty much the norm now.

    Well done.

    Next research assignment please: WITB for Nicklaus, Trevino, Watson, Weiskopf, and Miller in 1975.
