The 1960’s looked awesome. People appeared to have more pride and class
only the people you saw
perspective
was really a time to be alive for sure, for better or worse
...and smoking cigarettes on the course wasn't Taboo
6800 yards with long rough with the old equipment, I couldn’t imagine.
I can imagine that my 6 handicap would struggle to break 90 on Oakmont under Open conditions. Maybe even 95.
I love the Disney-esque music LOL...What a time capsule!
Absolutely!! I love Chris Shenkel’s voice. That adds to it.
Agreed!😊
Palmer should've won this tournament. But Jack Nicklaus was the greatest of all time so what can you say other than the greatest won his first Open here.?
Arnie blew it on 9, leaving two chips in a row short. A shame he came so close in his backyard twice - here and in '73.
After the 13th, jack never smoked again!
Damn, the course looks like a beat up muni.
Good job! Enjoyed! How the hell did Palmer not realize it's stroke play?! What have you been doing all day Palmer? Good thing for Palmer it wasn't even. That brain fart would have cost him dearly. Anyway, love Palmer and Jack... Good guys. RIP Arnie.
@Hoa Tattis Serious knowledge. Thank you.
@Jeffrey Palmer That may be true. I forgot who said it, may have been Butch Harmon, Palmer was the best 5 iron ball striker ever. That being said, I have heard a chorus say that Palmer tee to Green was crazy good. In Palmer's 40's, when he never won, all the golf experts stated, tee to green Palmer was gold. But, he couldn't make a putt to save his life. In Palmer's prime his putting was average at best. On the other hand, Nicklaus's putting was superior, especially in clutch situations. It never left him. The '86 Masters he was making putts from all over the joint. Nicklaus's putter came thru time and again all the way to the end --Saint Andrews drains a 15 foot slider for birdie to end his career --amazing. Remember the 104 footer he made with Johnny Miller talking trash right to his face. Nicklaus was a beast, even in his '70's.
@@jamesdesch3201 yes, Nicklaus was definitely better than Palmer. Interesting fact about Palmer , he shortly quit smoking 🚬 thereafter. He never won a tourney after he quit smoking. Btw, Palmer was a great player albeit for just a few years.
Palmer should have won at least 3 or 4 more majors but his putting failed him so many times. I’m still sick about the 66 US Open.
I can see that putting with the Flag in was legal.
full circle
Playoff 23:46
The way Palmer hit his putt at 29:50 is exactly the way my brother in law cheated. If he missed the 1st time he would one hand it, miss again and not count the very last putt hard to beat that pencil LOL RIP brother in law
You sound bitter
@@ellibreelmundo2629 You sound weird.
@@fastguned b UT you are very weird!
@@ellibreelmundo2629 I have a suggestion for you., Why don't you take a long walk on a short pier.
@@fastgunedyou really are a nut. What is your nickname "the hacker"? :)
Plenty of black faces in the crowd I see - so heartening.
That's because in fact, even back then, white people were not all racists as today's woke seem irrepressibly fixated on. They think they know everything! They don't.
So?
@@shawnkennedy855 It was an ironic comment on the appalling racism in golf at that time. Sorry if you didn't get it.
@@ysgol3 It was just you virtue signalling
