Golf Autographs

[sac]

Hey here is a part of my golf autograph collection. All of the balls are were actually used by the players, same for the hat. Post some of your collections if you can, I would love to see some.

Tom Byrum?

 

 

He's a heck of a guy. I used tow ork with his swing coach, and I played a practice round with them both, one of the nicest guys I've EVER played with.

 

Nice to see Sugar Land represented! :drinks:

Yea he is a great guy. Spent some time with him at the Western open. My cousin is best friends with the owners son, so he got me tickets and I got to me Tom.

Here's a majority of my collection. I also have pics of ben Curtis with the Claret Jug and Hal Sutton with the Ryder Cup signed and framed. Too bad Hal couldn't have actually won that cup.

Nice autographs! Thanks for posting! I hope others can!

[Lord Thomas]

Great thread sac,

 

Wow, there are some great collections.

 

I'm at school, so I can't post pictures of my autograph book, so a description will have to do. My Grandfather (who is now in his mid-70s) started this autograph book when he was a boy, passed it onto his son, who passed it onto me while I was in high school. In the 50 - 60 years it has been around, it has been signed by a number of great players including:

 

Ben Hogan

Jack Nicklaus

Gary Player

Arnold Palmer

Sam Snead

Lee Trevino

And many, many others

 

I'll try to get some pictures in the next few days.

I got an autograph from some professional...I've heard that this guy is good, what do you think????

[phatchrisrules]

I can't my sisters digital camera to work but I have autographs from the 2003, 2004 and 2006 Canadian Open consisting of:

 

An autograph flag from this years Canadian Open, I only missed Vijay i think. My favourite autographs on the flag are the winner Jim Furyk, and his caddie Fluff. Oh ya, and Jesper's. It took me three years to get him and I finally did.

 

Golf Balls signed by: Ian Leggat, Shane Bertsch, Peter Lonard, Some random pro, Jeff Sluman, Aaron Baddely, Steven Ames (and his caddie gave me his headcover from his 3 wood or 5 wood), Greg Owen, and my favourite one Camilo Villegas.

 

I also have three prototype Callaway balls which eventually become the Hx Tour about 5 months after the 2003 Canadian Open. These were from Fred Funk, Robert Damron (?), and some other guy.

 

 

The only two autographs I want now are Woods and Vijay's.

 

 

Off topic here I have a signed picture of Kurt Cobain.

I've got a decent collection of autographs in general, but have a few golf signatures of interest.

 

Of particular interest is a April 5, 1999 edition of The August Chronicle (the local paper there), which was their annual Masters edition. It's signed on the front page by a number of players, including Jim Furyk, Ken Venturi, and Mark O'Meara, and Tiger.

 

I've also got a Titleist signed by Tiger in 1998.

 

Just thought the newspaper might be of interest...pics show plastic that it's been wrapped in since it was given to me.

Recently acquired a collection of golf books from one of my students. Hundreds of books, all first edition and prior to 1955. She said that they were her Fathers. In the first box I have already found a personalized copy of The Walter Hagen Story, signed by the man himself. In addition there was a copy of The Boys Life Of Bobby Jones, signed and personalized by Mr. Jones, O.B. Keeler, William Campbell, Ed Dudley, and Betty Jean Rucker. It was presented to Johnny Howell in the mid thirties... I have them at the Bank securely put away, but will shoot some pictures and post before long..

[Bridgestone4life]

Great collections guys keep them coming.

I got Nick Price's ball when his caddy came off the green at TPC sawgrass on Sunday when he had just won. Its hard to get Nick Faldos golf balls. I was just lucky with Tiger at his first US AM win.

 

I'll keep collecting golf balls when ever I get the chance. I have learned how to get them in an easy way.

 

Enjoy

Very nice collection..

[PowerPenguin]

These collections have to be worth serious dough. But we all know they're priceless really. (cool) Cool sigs guys.

 

Dave

[Lefty330]

Awesome collections guys. Do you guys get them by just going to different events or are they from like eBay for instance. Or is it a mixture of both??

[johndeere10]

Here are a few I have:

 

First is from 02 Masters and Tour Championship. Also is 02 LPGA I went to in N. Augusta signed ny Annika S.

 

Second is 05 Masters (27 autographs)

 

Third is from Heritage signed by DL3

 

Fourth is from 04 Tour Championship in Atlanta @ East Lake

[PowerPenguin]

That Masters Flag rocks! I think I'm going to try and get more sigs, they will look so cool on the wall, and I bet there are stories behind most of them. (cool)

 

Dave

[johndeere10]

Yup its my favorite. Got all those standing near the driving range in about 2 hours time.

[proknows]

Just a few from some of my personal collection of books. Hope you enjoy.

I was able to get Phil and Vijay to put an autograph on my business cards and DiMarco to sign my Cheesecake Factory menu last summer during the Booz Allen Classic. I was traveling for work and they were staying at the Ritz Carlton at the same time that I was. Being a huge golf nut one would have thought that I could have deduced that they may be staying there since the hotel is 10 minutes from the course, but I was Captain Moron and did not bring anything golf related with me. :)

[italianstallion]

Have all of two golfers autographs. I have Sign Boy's autograph somewhere, but couldn't locate it for pictures.

[wholeinwon]

Not all Golf Related...but still cool in my opinion...the one baseball is Jimmy Key from the World Series, its a ball my dad caught for me at the World Series in 1992. Jimmy Key is my favourite pitcher of all time lol so it was pretty cool to get. The other baseball is Fergie Jenkins. The goalie stick is Dom Hasek and the players stick is a game used Ziggy Palffy stick he gave to me after a game in Buffalo when he was with NYI. The rest are self explanatory.
