In their defense (LPGA), PGA players like Bubba have a lot more money to play around with. He can afford to do stuff like this and fail. Most LPGA players are barely making ends meet. 

Ohhhhh come on now Scott....money isn’t the reason we don’t see this on the LPGA. 😄

I'm sure I could shank it through that gap while trying to go down the actual fairway! Let's see Bubba do that!

Every once in a while, I say it is fun to see such a risk taker.  And, Bubba seems to have fun as well.

 

I have NEVER seen Bubba look as if he's having fun on a golf course. He's made a whole lot of ad videos but as for having fun on a golf course, you must be joking. He's one of the most sour, negative players out there, if not the most horrible.

I've seen Bubba hit a drive like that in person. It was at the WGC Bridgestone when it was still at Firestone CC in Akron. He teed of on a dogleg right 470 yard par 4, the first couple hundred yards were just slightly uphill, and then turned right and downhill, across a pond to the green. At the inside corner of the dogleg is a grove of huge oaks that are 80 feet tall, at least! Bubba blasted his Driver at least 50 feet over the tops of them with his patented fade/slice.

He seemed unhappy with the shot, so I hustled down there with the rest of the gallery, and saw that his ball was on the left side of the fairway, with about a 100 yard flip wedge to the green. I can only surmise that he hope the shot wouldn't fade that much, since if it faded further it might have wound up in the rough. And you do not want to be in the rough at Firestone!

    • You all are right, its not that big of an issue, I'll leave it alone, especially after looking at that picture of Tigers beat up putter. But I also noticed the small circle worn on the sweet-spot where he hits it every time, I definitely don't have one of those. Thanks for the replies   
    • Committing to one brand of ball this year - Snell MTB Prime X, the 5 doz. pack. Like how they perform for me. At $18/doz., can live with cover scuffing. Iron regripping with GolfPrice MCC+4 Teams std. in red/navy. May be retiring Odyssey Dual Force after 30 yrs. Seems like I can't get it to the hole anymore. Kind of light and has lots of toe hang. My reg. group's hounding finally wore me down.    From Callaway preowned - trying out the Odyssey Tri-Hot 5K in double wide (less toe hang) and triple wide (face balanced). Both also noticeably heavier...we shall see.  
    • WOW, it looks like he has been hitting stones with that putter to put all of those nicks into it.  I can't see how a ball would cause many those dings.
    • I'm fighting a knee as well as a foot so I "Feel your pain".  Luckily for me the PT is helping at this time and I am hoping knee surgery is not imminent.  Best of luck to you.
