Charlie Hamm was a great athlete excelling in golf. I think if he hadn't broken his wrist while playing basketball, he would have gone far in the golf world. Many times I walked around the golf course watching him play highschool matches. We had fun together in highschool. He was a great friend and could be counted on for support during good and bad times.
