Guest pro Bruce Summerhays, below, shows pupils the natural way to hold a golf club during the golf clinic. by Senior Airman Hilltop Times Staff its one of my passions, Summersaid as he hays taught the crowd. Even when were on the tour, one of the guys will say, hey Bruce take a look at my game, what am I doing wrong. Its always nice to help someone out and thats why Im here today. As a fellow teaching professional I like to compare and see his perceptions as opposed to mine, said Andy Peidl, Hubbard Golf Course assistant course professional. Everything he said, I agreed with. Theres nothing he said that made me think, I dont like that. I like to hear their point of you and compare it to how I teach. Its fun. With golf in his blood, Summerhays remembers how he started playing the game. ' I remember being five years old, my father put a club in my hands and it seemed like every time hed go out and play golf I was right there tagging along with him. It just got into the blood. Golf is not only in Summerhays blood, but his whole families. With a 15 year-ol- d nephew winning the state amateur golf championship and another with a full scholarship for golf, success on the course evidently runs in the family. Summerhays is the most recognized name in the state for golf, according to Peidl. Daniel is Bruces nephew. He won the state amateur competition last year. Boyd Summerhays, another of Bruce e scholarship to Oklahoma nephews, is on a State. Its just a great golfing family, its in the blood. by pro Jeff Jerman, and included Howard Crane, Jeff The intimidation factor was evident when folks heard Everts, Greg Gilmore and A1 Hedrick.

First place net individual was a three-wa- y afraid of not Heck no tie between Im playing against him, said Peidl. Do I have a chance? No. But Im going to Greg Gilmore, Carroll Bobb and C. Omer, with 63; and tee it up and swing at it, find it and hit it again then add a tie for second between Tom Tait and Steve Wall at 64. them up when Im done.

With a clinic by a Senior Professional Golf Association member, a players lunch and a shotgun start, the day was anything but uneventful. Twenty-tw- o fivesomes, consisting of one professional and four amateur players, found their way to designated hole assignments and at 1 p.m., a shotgun start kicked off the tournament. Proceeds from the tournament will benefit the Aerospace Heritage Foundation and Hill Aerospace Museum r V with a portion going to the Exceptional Family Member Program. To attract golfers and spectators, the course staff solicited the help of Senior PGA memn ber Bruce Summerhays who not only is on the Senior PGA tour, but also a household name in well-know- Utah. The best thing about being here is I live in Utah so Im home and its nice to help raise money for such worthy causes as the museum, said Summerhays. Not to mention I love to teach. Ill be out there playing with the General. Well give him some help, he laughed. All he has to do is make the putts. golf Summerhays teed-of- f the day with a clinic, feeding envious golfers the secrets of the pros. Numerous golfers gathered around Summerhays to hear advice on how to better their games. Everyone from to the Ogden Air Logistics Center commander were on hand to absorb as many nuggets of information as they could.
