In honor of National Golf Month.......

                   We've got some bits of information you might not know.

*  125K golf balls are hit into water at the 17th hole of the
    Stadium Course at Sawgrass each year !
*  The French word "cadet" means "youngest child",
    and that is where the word "caddy" comes from.
*  A golf ball will travel further on hot days because
    the air is less dense.
*  Only 2 sports have been played on the moon:
    golf and the javelin throw.
*  If you walked all 18 holes instead of using a
    golf cart you would walk 4 miles.
*  Phil Mickelson is naturally right-handed, BUT
    he's the most famous U.S. LEFT-HANDED
    golfer of all time !
*  Presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy and Obama were
    avid golfers.  President Woodrow Wilson is often
    overlooked.  He was so dedicated to the sport,
    he played in the snow using a black golf ball !!
*  In 1457, golf was banned in Scotland. 
    Parliament felt it interfered with military training.
    Nearly 300 years later, The Royal and Ancient
    Golf Club of St. Andrews was founded.
*  Northern Canadian territory Nunavut's annual
    Toonik Tyme Festival included a nine-hole golf
    tournament.  In below freezing temperatures, players
    play on a sheet of ice, using fluorescent balls so as
    not to lose them in the snow.
