GolfDigest.com has come in very handy on many of these questions. Keep up the good work and share some of the wealth of prizes with some of us Louisiana boys.

I enjoy looking for the answers to these questions and even more so just checking in to see how great Keri looks every day. However, don’t hate the CA winners. We by far have more golfers and places to play than any other state so it would make sense that we have more winners-
Keep up the great work

I hate to pop your bubble Jeff but I think you’ll find that Florida has more golf courses than California.

Does it really matter who wins or where you play golf, or how many courses your state has. The real question is how do we get Keri to come to our courses and make a public autograph signing appearance. That would be a nice prize.

Not to be to picky..But it wasn’t an ostrich..It was a Rhea that bit Mr. Snead.

I know that Keri posted this in her blog today, but according to Sam Snead himself in his book, “The Education of a Golfer”, it was an ostrich and he said it was three fingers that he almost lost. So, considering the source, that is what we used to come up with our answer. We hope that clears up any conflicting evidence.

Keri on a photo and autograph tour would be a nice treat indeed. In addition to that, I look forward to the day when she becomes a regular on The Golf Channel broadcasts. Her new adventure would be our new delight.

I think it’s sad that we focus on what Keri looks like etc. I thought the website was to expand our golf knowledge and promote the sport. Let’s not demean golf as football has demeaned woman with cheerleaders. Cheerleaders first came about when girls didn’t have sports to participate in. Now we’ve sexualized it. That is demeaning. I love the fact that golf has room for everyone, so I hate to see the focus turn towards appearance.

Slammin Sam had a couple of nicknames..one he realyy enjoyed was the “popcorn man”..because he truly enjoyed the stuff..

Ok now everyone, don’t get mad at the comments the guy in the above post made, it’s just the way he is, err… not that there’s anything wrong with that. If things weren’t any more obvious…. Keri wouldn’t be the host - Whoopi Goldberg would be.

We feel compelled to say that even though things might seem “obvious”, we really did hire Keri because she’s a great on-camera talent having done news, commercial and corporate on-camera work. The fact that she’s beautiful was a plus - not to mention the fact that Whoopi was too expensive for us (just kidding). Plus, for all of you who have written in wanting to meet Keri - stay tuned. Your chance just might be coming up soon.
