Wilson Blue Ridge can be found in the early 1940s, and the Wilson company had a history of attaching the names of famous golfers to their woods and irons; I find Sam Snead's name on Wilson irons as far back as 1942, in fact. But the earliest I can find Sam Snead's name as part of the Wilson Blue Ridge is 1964-1965. Magazine ads of that era spoke of the "Sam Snead Wilson Blue Ridge"-- a set which contained 2 woods and 5 irons. It does not seem that the name got changed to "Wilson Sam Snead Blue Ridge" till the early 1970s, but it was not official-- many newspaper ads still placed Snead's name at the beginning, rather than in the middle.

Trench Warfare began in 1914 when world war one began. It was big in major battles that Canadian's fought in such as Ypres, Somme, Vimey Ridge, and Paschendale.It was big in Vimy Ridge because the German's were mounted on a ridge and the British troops were down below, so they dug tunnels and trenches to avoid being seen.

Vimy Ridge was a subsidiary action of the larger Battle of Arras during World War One. Fought from April 9 to 12, 1917, it consisted of an offensive by the Canadian Corps (with significant support by the British 5th Infantry Division and supplementing British artillery and engineers) against elements of the German Sixth Army.
