Is it wrong to pretend you are someone else when you're over 30?

I like to think I am Ben Hogan but his trousers fit better than mine.

When did you get a chance to try his trousers on?

I think these were the original money can't buy Golf Monthly opportunities. Others included wear Sam Snead's sweater, borrow Gene Sarazen's shoes (complete with sand) and try Bobby Jones' plus fours ;)
 
If it's forumers we are emulating I want to be Snelly. Plays pretty much off scratch with a set of rusty old clubs, hits the ball a mile (not literally ;) ), has a wit more arid than the Sahara and has a 2012 golfing itinerary that reads like a GM Top 100 Courses pull out!

The cheque is in the post. Yours too Rick!
 
It might be sad but it works. Played today in strong winds amassed 36 pts but tee to green much more controlled despite the wind. Mainly achieved through swinging slow and playing for position. Short game needs work especially putting, but after a tricky front nine 13pts two blobs, got the hang of the conditions and played the back nine in +8 for 23pts. :)
