Career

In 1936, Mowry was born in San Diego, California.
In 1959, Mowry turned professional. He spent most his regular career as a club professional. Mowry played on the PGA Tour full-time for several years in the 1960s. He won the 1968 Rebel Yell Open and finished T-2 at the 1969 Azalea Open Invitational. Mowry's best finish in a major was a T-11 at the 1969 PGA Championship.
Mowry's win at the 1987 Crestar Classic made him the first player in Senior PGA Tour history to win an event after making it through the rigors of Monday qualifying. That victory also made him the first former club professional to post an official Senior PGA Tour win. The biggest win of Mowry's career came at the 1989 Senior PGA Championship, which was held at the PGA National Golf Course in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
