Just looking at Total Driving stats.

He looked great at St Andrews and more recently at Augusta, but did you look at his stats this week?  He hit 1 of 14 fairways Thursday, 5/14 Friday and made 3 doubles and a triple to miss the cut by 3.  He fell from 5th to 19th in total driving, so there are a bunch of guys who might disagree (including Rollins, Woods and Weekley who rank ahead of him in BOTH distance and % fairways hit).

This guy didn't actually kill himself.  That's pretty good, even though he tried.  Clearly he's winner.

I would actually say Fowler is a great driver. He has good distance (about 300 yards) and has one of the highest accuracy ratings of anybody on tour

    • Phillyk is very close by. Ok, I understand how the watch and tags are meant to be used, but I was just curious how it actually works. I can't really think of any other way than what I mentioned above. No worries. If it works it works. I'll probably pick one up. My co-worker mentioned a free app called 18 Birdies which offers similar services. However I personally do not like keeping my phone in my pocket while golfing, nor do I want to be clicking around on the phone while out on the course. I toss my phone in my bag and leave it there until I am done golfing. Tapping a club head to a watch seems wat more convenient.  
    • Yes, but not always the case. IMHO, green speeds are a huge variable and can effect score variation from week to week or month to month significantly. Our own course that is running at about 8-9 depending on the week/day, can run up to 12 (no kidding) in peak months around certain event, and most like me score 3-4 shots higher on an average, missing a lot of 3-4 footers. There are any PCC adjustments that I am aware of. Have you every played their course? I am betting $20 you will find some answers if you haven't already.

    • I would recommend spending some time at the range and film your swing. You can post it in the Member Swings thread. At the range, you can figure out how to control the driver a bit more. We can offer some pointers once you post in the Member Swings section.
    • With the H4 or the watch, you tag the club before hitting by putting the tag next to the device. The tag is on the club butt end. After a round, you don’t really think about it too much. You just do it. I don’t know how far you are from @phillyk, but he may know an instructor in your area.
