USGA Museum To Be Featured On Travel Channel, 9 ET/PT

January 11, 2011/ Geoff Shackelford

I know most of you already have a series recording of Mysteries at the Museum, but just in case be sure to check out Travel Channel's 9 pm airing of episode 12 that includes a segment on the USGA Museum.

From the Historicial Hussies blog:

Among the trophies and memorabilia at the USGA is an amazing artifact that took the sport of golf into a whole new orbit. A forty year old, one-of-a-kind club went on a fantastic voyage. Why did a NASA astronaut decide to pull off an extraterrestrial tee shot and how did a simple stunt become one of the defining moments for a space program in crisis?
