Prototype Treasure Found!

Looks like the Prototype Napa California headcover now has a happy home…

Dear Scotty,
As a subscribing member and avid collector I saw the article on my e-mail at about 4:00 PM, thought it was a great idea but also thought you must have done this earlier in the day, and it probably was long gone. So, I went down and practiced some chips and putts with my dogs Ice and Keiki.

I had the day off and I had just gotten back from a round of golf with my son Cole who also had the day off from school (he is a Marine Corps GYSGT student at UC San Marcos having spent 3 tours in Iraq). While I was practicing, I started to think what a great day it was with him, maybe it is my lucky day and the headcover is still there. So, I came back to the computer, looked again at the Blog, noticed you posted it at 3:05 PM and your watch in the picture at the hardware store showed 1:45 PM.

So what the heck, I jumped in the car at about 5:15 and drove down Del Dios Highway to Encinitas and to my surprise it was still there! There was a guy on the beach about 10 feet from the umbrella, he was all set up with his towels and cooler but there was the umbrella totally untouched in a mound of sand with the headcover still inside!! It was 5:50 PM who would have thought it would STILL BE THERE. Here are my pictures when I got back.

Thanks, sir. What a thrill and a great Labor Weekend present!!

Sincerely,
Gary N.
