Was never much of a Tiger fan because he seemed too stand-offish. But he seems to be more affable. Maybe loosing Stevie on the bag, the Hank Haney sp.? book, the marriage break up has humbled him a bit. I don't know but I like the new Tiger he seems more approachable.

I'd have to agree. After the whole Tiger scandal, he changed because he probably realized he'd lose a lot more fans than he already had if he didn't.

what he endured(at his own hands) would have crushed many,many "ordinary" men. the pressure brought to bear by his sponsors,especially those he lost, is beyond what most could comprehend. His Elitist status was placed upon him at a very young age by his father, molded over a very long time. That was very hard armour to wear down, most don't have that time -encrusted advantage. He's a lucky man, that he didn't end up on the wrong end of criminal activity doing what he was doing.But he's human and his Delila cut his hair..we all know how that ended. I admire his tenacity on the course.. I love his now dealing with age/health issues while trying to maintain the same level of play...very hard to do, yet hes' trying. Tiger was good for golf,still is, but now many who wore rose-colored glasses will get the REAL picture of how human he really is.

I would after watching his interview after the 3rd round. He has seemed petulant at times. Definitely a different vibe. Seemed pleased at his position and game. I was hoping for a little more confident tone he could play from behind, but he seemed more realistic/humble. I thought there was a feeling of gratitude too. Nice change of pace. Definitely agree with you WilsonEdgeMan. It is good to see the change. BTW, love the avatar. 10th Mtn vet myself. Many friends in the 25th.

      You might want to try a can of Bar Keepers Friend. Yes, it is abrasive, so just wet a sponge and dab it on. It has oxalic acid (no bleach like "Comet" kitchen cleanser), and it works wonders on stainless steel and other metals. Try it on a small area first to see what happens.

      Fair   My uneducated thought: the big miss is the penalty area. If you want to optimize score, missing into the bunker (likely 5) is better than missing right into the penalty (possible 6). With that, your strategy seems sound and if you hit a committed shot, you get a bunker 5% of the time, take your medicine and hopefully get a putt for par but accept bogey. You may find yourself in a penalty situation 2-3% of the time and accept the associated outcome. The vast majority of the time though you are giving yourself a good approach shot into the green.

      How Much do You Exercise?

      By Elmer ·

      I walk 30 mins a day on my lunch break. It is not very intense (since i dont want to get sweaty in my work clothes), so just a touch above leisurely. 3 days a week I walk on the treadmill for 60 mins. I alternate the incline from 4 to 10 for a couple minutes, once every ten minutes. I lift my kettlebells nearly everyday. I have a couple complex routines. I find just 15 minutes and my heart rates is elevated
