To speed up the process...
I will assist with some hints and comments...remember...1st correct post wins!
1. Looking through a Hula-Hoop
2. Threw a ball into an ocean after one win.
3. The unknown solider still had a division.
4. Not sure Laville ever broke 68 at the South, and Bartlett left once at 9-under with about 4 to play.
5. 25+Million in winnings later...
6. Famous commercial vs. the Titleist proved the line-of-compression theory, inadvertently.
7. Not talking about the notes...someone close to him.
8. Key word is "invented." Pelz "marketed" his under the "Faetherlite" name.
9. The Hat.
10. Slazenger Model Ansers

1. A Perfectly straight ball looks like what to the golfer?
Think of looking at the St. Louis Arch from the side.
2. Which golfer who won two majors in one year with illegal balls and irons?
He later called a rules infraction on Gary Player in the Skins Game.
3. Who designed and built the "St. John's" old #1 course at City Park in New Orleans?Olmstead design the "Park," not the #1 Course.
4. He shares City Park South Course record of 59 (9 under par) with Brian Manzella...Rob Noel is not that kind of player, and Stopa is not an Authorized Instructor (an earlier hint).
5. He beat Runner-Up Michael Finney to win "Junior Major"...He later won the PGA Tour version of the same name.
6. The first golf ball with Hex dimples was...It never said "Uniroyal" on the ball.
7. Who else wrote part of "The Golfing Machines" Chapter 2?
Not Shaw, not Sally
8. Who invented "Feather Light" golf clubs?Trick question, this guy invernted the CONCEPT of "B" weighted clubs that "frequencied" the same as the D-1 or 2 versions.
9. TGM AI who did win a "Junior Major"...Spoke at the 1990 PGA SUmmit in Nashville.
10. Two Famous Golfers who's names appeared on Ping Putters are...Source: Pongman

The guy who did it, is not a current AI, must have not paid his dues. Secondary hints, PGA Member who was a Gulf States Section Teacher of the Year.
