Were Leprechauns hiding in the U.S. Team bags at the Ryder Cup?

During the final hours of last year's Ryder Cup, most of us were glued to the TV and were witness to the historic recovery by the United States team. Their last minute heroics and capture of the 1999 Ryder Cup was an event few will soon forget. While you watched the final day with flag waving pride, you have to ask what gave the Americans the sudden adrenaline rush to dominate that last day. Well, as Paul Harvey says, "now you know the rest of the story".

Monahan Jewelers' Mike Monahan, in Harwich Port, Cape Cod, admits he sent Ben Crenshaw a dozen of the Monahan Jewelers "Lucky Shamrocks" (see the letter in PDF format), along with a letter stating that they were great for birdies and eagles. The "Lucky Shamrocks" were brass ball markers made by Mark It, the golf accessory company located in Birmingham, AL. The Lucky Shamrocks were handed out in the Sunday morning team meeting, and according to Mike Monahan, the rest was history. 

If you would like to have this advantage in your bag, see Mike for a set of four gold plated "Lucky Shamrocks" in time for your next golf outing.
