Been close enough once that our hair was standing on end from the electricity around us. The two of us were at the farthest point from the clubhouse, with no weather shelter on what was then a relatively new course. We parked our bags in the middle of the fairway and found a depression about 40 yards away. We just crouched down as low as possible under our umbrellas and waited it out. We were walking and carrying and there really wasn't any other choice. That's about the most scared I've ever been. I've even been through thunderstorms above tree line in the mountains that weren't as frightening as that one.

For Duey and the guys who played in the Colorado get together this year, that was at Riverdale Dunes, 15th hole, about 20 years ago.
