It’s Auric, not Audric.

Keri, get that computer to pick someone back here in Nebraska! Our football team stunk this season and of course it is way too cold to play golf, so it is hard to stay motivated during these winter months. Your show helps though!

I presume you are referring to the movie. The brand was different in the book.

James Bond,
Played Dunlop and Goldfinger played Slazenger

James Bond played with a slazenger golf ball, but he and Goldfinger should have lost due to changing each others balls. I think Oddjob drop a ball from his pant leg, then Bond steped on Goldfingers ball and switch it.

Yes, we are referring to the film, “Goldfinger”, and not the book. We knew that Bond played a Dunlop ball in the novel and made sure not to list it in our answer choices to avoid any confusion.

Alright you guys! Confess! Your webmaster must be off playing that course in Hawaii! Today, your video cast has kept abending before it finished ( it might be my6 ISP or some sluggishness on the Net) but I have not been able to buffer your telecast, and don;t know who won today! We now have a foot of snow here but they are tekking us that it may be 53 degrees here on Sunday so there may be January golf in Chicago this year hyet!

For years now my buddy tells me he’s playing the same ball as James Bond.
That was one of the choices so I chose it. Later I decided to lookit up to be sure. Lo and behold, He has been wrong all these years. He wasn’t happy to hear it when I called to tell him. That will teach me to answer without looking it up first.

Just took 6 strokes off my game. Had the guys at sdgrass install a putting green. Priceles enjoyment. 15′ x 20′ cost me $4500.00. However making it back in skin games against friends I normally golf with.
