Herbert Warren Wind - Historic Golf Letters

I'm not one that thinks most things were better in the old days. But one thing clearly was -- letter writing.

Double Round on the Old Course

I got on the first tee of the Old Course, St Andrews, at 07.50am. A wee bit chilly and a smattering of light rain now and then through the round but it did not effect the enjoyment of my golfer from San Francisco area. A delightful man who had been standing in queue since 04.45am. I would call that dedication to his cause to play the Old Course. I have had a good lunch in the St Andrews Golf Club and I am just having a warming "second cup" of strong coffee in the wonderful Dunvegan Hotel just 120 yards up the road from the Old Course. I am scheduled to caddie this afternoon at 15.00pm and have just been watching the rain fall heavily from a darkened sky...thankfully it seems to be receeding. I hope so, only 45 minutes until my tee time!

Good Morning Old Course

An early start for Caddie Boyne this morning just about to leave and report to Caddie Pavilion at the Old Course St. Andrews for ld be finished first round 07.00am. Should be finished first round by 13.00pm, grab some lunch and back out for the second mid afternoon. The rain can stay away please!
