Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Even if you know a course by heart, when you’re out on the green, getting ready to take your next shot, you need to be aware of everything on the course ahead. That includes the span of green available, hazards, cart paths, distance to the hole, trees and shrubbery, and even doglegs. You can estimate, but if you’re looking for more accurate measurements you’ll need a golf rangefinder. Knowing the distance between you and other course objects or features can help you choose the right club, and choose where to aim your shot. If you need one to toss in your golf bag, Amazon is offering the REDTIGER golf rangefinder with Slope for $93 with a $10 off on-page coupon.
