Who is the man leaning over with the cap between Phil Harris and Bing Crosby? Anybody know?
He is in a few pictures of foursomes I have that were taken at Thunderbird.

Just looked through a 1955 Thunderbird magazine and the pictures and it looks like it may be Bob Roseburg.

I have a trophy that my grandfather, Melvin C. Eaton won in 1958 at Thunderbird Country Club. I believe that he was the mens club runner up that year. My grandfather and grandmother, Ethel, were members of Thunderbird for many years. I also have a picture of my grandfather playing golf with Presidents Eisenhower and Johnson at Thunderbird.

Yes, Drew...good memory. I have the Silver cig case from the '59 Thunderbird CC Invitational won/presented to MC Eaton.

Helene, I'm Bonnie Testa's daughter and
grew up at Thunderbird. My younger sister Bonny and I along with Jay and John Ross Clark and other member's children were frequently in the fashion shows put on by the club to show off the latest Christmas and Easter holiday fashions. I have many great memories of the Easter egg hunts and finding the golden Thunderbird egg hidden among hundreds of brightly colored eggs and winning a six foot high stuffed toy rabbit as the prize. I have seen the Bob Baker Marionette Easter puppet show every year since I was two. There were also great birthday parties given by Lucy and Desi for Lucie and Desi Jr. And one party for Jay Ross Clark ended up with a birthday gift of a surrey with the fringe on top in the swimming pool by a wayward driver. My parents always talked about the wonderful club parties
with Alice Faye and Phil Harris singing
at the piano and how Ginger Rogers cut
the rug dancing the night away. You brought back lots of fun memories.

Hi. I was doing some genealogy work on my grandfather and ran across this.
My mom also lived in Thunderbird with her parents (my grandparents). I'm not sure if it was around the same time as you folks, but I have seen pictures of Phil Harris, Bing Crosby, and Bob Hope golfing that my grandfather had taken.
My grandfather, Harry Weimar, was the one that used to golf with one arm. Anybody know/remember him?

This has to be the most interesting golf story I've read in a long time. Great stories like this just don't come along very often.
