In the summer of 2021, I was invited to share a podcast on the history of my golf experiences in Oklahoma. Being the daughter of a golf pro may have given me a unique opportunity and view of growing up in golf.
Mike Hearne interviews me for the following show:
"On this episode I chatted with Letty Watt. Letty is a storyteller and boy does she have some great stories. Growing up in North Eastern Oklahoma playing golf in the 50's and 60's. Living at the course with her sister because her Dad was the pro. Country Club life was something else back then and you can read all about it in Letty's blogs. She has her own blog called Literally Letty as well as her other blog telling the history of Miami Golf and Country Club."

We talk about life, as much as golf. For each of us, we have learned that golf carries us through life from the lessons learned about competition, rules, appreciation, friendship, respect, camaraderie, and more importantly fresh air fun and exercise. I hope you will follow along with Mike Hearne and me as we travel through the mid-century of original 13 members of the LPGA, along with colorful characters who visited our country club.
