« on: May 25, 2005, 02:23:33 PM »
this tournament was shown on espn classic this morning and what a day that was for john handegard. he beat four top pros including three hall of famers( mike aulby, norm duke, and mark williams ). john became the oldest player to win a national title at 57 years old.

Greg, I think I remember that telecast. Was he using the Teal Rhino Pro by any chance? For some reason I remember him using a Teal Rhino Pro one time on T.V.

john handegard was wearing a champion shirt on the telecast but it looked like he was throwing an ebonite ball. there were many senior telecasts where he threw a teal rhino pro. norm duke is not yet a member of the pba hall of fame since they changed the qualifying standards----he's a lock when he's old enough.
