Here&#8217;s one of his stories:<\/p>\n<p>\tIt was back in the 70s and a soon-to-be prominent golfer (Ray Floyd) was playing at Augusta for his first Masters. Back then the players could not bring their own caddies but had to use one of the locals. Floyd told the caddy master he wanted a big fellow who could handle his bag, but who also would keep quiet, no advice needed.<\/p>\n<p>\tThe caddy who was assigned Floyd said, &quot;Hello Mr. &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..&quot;. <br \/>\n\tFloyd said &quot;Hello.&quot; And followed that with, &quot;That&#8217;s the last I want to hear from you.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\tEverything went well until the 10th hole when Floyd pushed his drive into the right trees on the par 4. After surveying the scene he said out loud, &quot;I&#8217;m going to hit a low fade out through that opening to carry and land mid green and thenroll over the crest down near the hole.&quot;            <\/p>\n<p>\tSurprisingly he pulled it off exactly and turned to his caddy and said, &quot;How&#8217;s that?&quot;            <\/p>\n<p>\tThe caddy spoke for the first time and said, &quot;That wasn&#8217;t your ball.&quot;<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>Replies:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Mr Finesse on February 15, 2016, 10:31 am<\/p>\n<div>Silence is Golden!!!!  :)))<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>David Feherty does a standup show that is quite spectacular.
