What happened to CHIII? seems like not so long ago he was getting top tens and victories and in the news - now no where.

Always thought his swing was awesome. loads of speed.

I remember a good while ago he was in an interview talking about how he's just trying to play golf and stop getting caught up in the technical aspect of the game so much.

Such a shame as he he's such a talent, Howell was always just greatness for distance considering his body size

He's probably still with David Leadbetter... 'nuff said.

Great point. If I remember correctly, he's been with DL since a young teenager. I wonder how much longer.

David Leadbetter's website has instructions on how to hit a draw and a fade by aiming the clubface at the target and closing or opening your stance....hmmm. Good way for your ball to start at the target and curve away from it.

I have been a huge fan of his since getting to walk inside the ropes with him during a practice round at the 2001 US Open. At that time he was just coming off of his great amateur career and looked as if he would make a huge impact on tour. One of the original "young guns". I'm glad he has made a good career for himself but I'd love to see him find "it" and make a nice run.

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
