was watching golf channel propaganda tonight and saw a replay of david duval when he shot his 59. worst looking fist pumps i have ever seen.

theres also tiger and stevie messing up the high five. coordination, anyone?

i think the worst is those goons on the senior tour (i think) who look like they ended up with the aborted remnants of a flying chest bump and a high five. they show that clip all the time on golf channel also, dont know who they are (tom lehman maybe??)

What's funny is that they ALWAYS mess up their high fives. They're terrible at it. Absolute rubbish.

Considering Tiger's hand eye coordination has to be in the top .0001 percentile, it is pretty bad....but then again he is kinda a L7

And somehow it became the most iconic picture of Seve. I love how he celebrates, its just so pure and true.

The same with Payne Stewart after his US Open win.

Yeah the fist pump is over rated, especially the one tiger does. I usually just clench my fist by my side, something small, but gets me going.

Chi-Chi is great two with fencing with his putter.

Remember that look Tiger had in 2008 U.S. Open when his putt to force the playoff sank?

I didn't realize how weird it was until I tried it after making birdie on a par-5 the other day.

Larry Mize's celebration when he made the "playoff pitch" was pretty funny. He had a couple small jumps followed by random prancing and kisses to the sky.

They all beat the rehearsed and choreographed crap that passes for celebration in the NFL. At least in golf they're spontaneous.

I hate when TGC shows the montage with Duval's 59 celebrations, just looks stupid. I'm also no fan of Marcel Siem, German guy playing on the Euro Tour. He does this stupid celebration when a good putt rolls in for birdie.

I don't mind Tiger's fist pumping, it's like "Yeah, allright". While Siem is like "Take that bitch". Also, his haircut is ridiculous.

Talking about high fives...


I love the two guys in pink and yellow shirts celebrating in this video in the left corner at 3:20 on this clip:

    • I did not realize that, I was thinking a more traditional golf club.  
    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.     
    • I get trying to limit relief to the fairway, but how many roots do you typically find in the fairway? Our local rule allows for relief from roots & rocks anywhere on the course (that is in play). My home course has quite a few 100 year old oaks that separate the fairways. Lift and move the ball no closer to the hole. None of us want to damage clubs.
