What's the best way to determine strokes given for a nassau? My buddy and I play an average of 20 matches each year, but neither of us carry an official USGA index...I track mine through yahoo and he uses another online solution. I...

Wow - hadn't heard about this one...Charl just went down a few notches in my book. I wonder what Gary Player and the Big Easy would say about this off the record?   Similar situation a few years ago in the US Open for...

4 iron is probably in play 2-3 times each round. Either on a long par 3 or 4....I hit it about 200-205....my next option is an adams 3 hybrid which is a reliable 220....the problem lies when I'm in between 210 and 220 and have to...

Fear the beard - I like Lucas Glover. Showing strong form as of late, and has proven he can thrive on long courses....won the Open at The Black a few years ago.
