Some courses in NYC smell like one, they are near dumps. Windy day, stinky round.

Did Tiger put his back out trying to keep up with an olympian? Well, Lynda Carter was a firm (no pun intended) favourite of mine.

Boner point for you, friend.

What's with that weird back on the heels move Kuchar does right before he takes the club back? I swear he does it every time.

So Tiger looked awful today, but secretly had the 8th best round of the day and snuck up to T4. How good was Chappel's 62? Next best round was 66.

Bridgestone does make woods. But maybe they just don't suit Kutch? Or maybe his deal is just ball, hat, bag? Or whatever.

That move of Kuchar's looks odd but I'm guessing it helps him avoid dipping in the backswing. Cool though that he plays a 4-hybrid. Just ordered my own. Not too comfortable with the 4-iron off the fairway.

It's a part of his pre-shot routine.

Well I am not sure they R&D; their woods like the irons but I guess I could be wrong bout that too.

B'Stone makes good kit. My 22 yr old son, with the 110 SS, uses their 3 wood and 21 Hy. Kills them.

But they don't market the clubs aggressively.

I don't know if the woods are for better players, but that may be the knock.

As to Kuchar, maybe someone pays him more to play their woods.

OMG! Ricky and Jonas Blixt are wearing the same pumpkin outfit. They are in the same grouping.

That is so gayish. Are they really girls in guys outfits? Cross dressers? Wow, simply wow.

I didn't know the young guys on tour think the PGA Tour is a fashion show. Just dress appropiriately and play golf you fools.

They interviewed Ricky, and the part that I caught stated that he arranged he and Blixt to wear the same outfits. I believe Blixt is wearing Rickys pants, complaining they were a little tight. My suggestion is to lighten up. If These guys want to have a little fun with the crowd and their clothes while they're playing, more power to them

    • Day 299: played 18. Hit the ball well, but did not score well. I think I ended up +10, with half of that coming on 2 holes. 
    • Day 549, May 4, 2024 After lessons and working with Natalie, hit some balls for awhile. Just backswing stuff. Forgot about the slightly shorter stuff, though I'm sure it was as they were only about 75% speed with brief pauses.
    • Not a coach, but this looks pretty solid to me! PGA TOUR (@pgatour) • Instagram reel 30K likes, 63 comments - pgatour on May 4, 2024: "Come for 16-year-old @kris.kim59’s near ace … Stay...  
    • Best drive I've ever hit: I will not be answering any questions about the rest of the hole. Or the round, for that matter.
    • I tried hybrids way back when TaylorMade introduced the copper orange Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.
