Walker Cup Team Survey Reveals Favorite Clubs
As the American Walker Cup team heads to England the USGA polled members on their preferred clubs. Frank Stranahan and George Hamer favor the driver for power and accuracy while Fred Kammer bets on the No 3 iron and Ted Bishop the No 7 iron. Skee Riegel and Dick Chapman prefer the wedge. Bud Ward banks on wind control and Willie Turnesa excels with bunker play. None chose the putter, amid a shift to blade putters as center shafted models fall out of favor in England. English greens present reading challenges for visiting players Dal Rees and Charley Ward note greens here aren’t fast enough for top putting, while Bob Locke recalls Sam Snead struggling to read our greens in South Africa.
