Did Sam Snead get in a car accident on the way to the masters?
Yes
What year were your Wilson Sam Snead blue ridge?
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.
What golfers where born in 1912?
Sam Snead, Byron Nelson, Ben Hogan
Were Jack Nicklaus Arnold Palmer and Sam Snead the only golfers to win a major after the age of 46?
No, the only golfers who have won a men's professional golf major after the age of 46 are Julian Boros 48, Jack Nicklaus 46 and Old Tom Morris 46.
Why is Sam Snead so disliked by golfers?
Good question. Sam Snead is the all time PGA Tour wins leader, with 82, he also won 7 major championships. But isn't often mentioned in the same sentence as other legends of the game. Perhaps it is because he wasn't winning majors in the same era as the 'big three', Palmer, Nicklaus and Player.
