Pebble Beach In 1963

July 12, 2009/ Geoff Shackelford

I'm only a few holes into the 1963 Shell's Wonderful World of Golf re-broadcast featuring Jack Nicklaus vs. Sam Snead. Besides the obvious (Snead's swing is amazing, the HD restoration is stunning), I'm curious what you all thought of the crispy, roughless Pebble Beach. Naturally I think it looks sensational. Also love Jack's 7th hole logoed hat!
