With Mike Weir and Aaron Baddeley moving away from stack and tilt, who are the top pros to watch who use the S & T?

There's a fairly long list of people, about 12-15+. Eric Axley, Tommy Armour III, Steve Elkington implements a lot of it, etc.

And then there are people who don't technically qualify but whose swings are awfully darn close like Tim Clark, Sean O'Hair, etc.

And even Mike Weir "left" Mike and Andy as his teacher(s) but he still employs very much an S&T; style move.

Eric - What was the video you posted a while back with he interview with Mike and Andy? Charlie Ross or Rose? Something like that.

Anyway, he asked Mike and Andy about Aaron and Mike leaving them. Their response was something to the fact that they weren't willing to commit to working at it further. Not to mention there are all kinds of factors besides ball striking that play into player rankings.

I do find it funny when people point at Aaron leaving SnT and saying "See, it must not work then." People leave coaches for a variety of reasons. Because Tiger left Harmon, does that mean Harmon doesn't know what he's talking about?

In Butch's case, perhaps.

Heh heh heh. PGA Tour pros get rabbit ears. I'm fairly certain Mike and Andy might not have put so much favor on Baddeley if they knew he'd leave soon because, as I understand it, he never really did things the way they wanted anyway. They chose to showcase him over someone like Steve Elkington or one of their other pros because he had the most "name" recognition, but from what I understand, they were never happy with the way he was doing things. But he had improved dramatically under S&T; tutelage and had a name people knew, so he got the article everyone loves to quote.

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      Do you have examples of exceptional scores versus their established handicap indexes?

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By Big C ·

      A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club?

      Interesting that Scottie is #10 on the all time money list and he's been on the PGAT for 4 years. Of course, purses are bigger now, but  neat to look at non-the-less.  The list of top 18 money winners in PGA Tour history has plenty of surprises This list is updated through the 2024 RBC Heritage. To add, Scottie won 4.5 million at the Players, Jack played 44 seasons and won a little of 5 million on course.
