Not quite Sunday pins but not much in the middle of the greens either. Slightly harder than yesterday. I like 12 and 13 especially

There’s not a cut between round one and round two.

I meant they have to play 27 holes in a row and fatigue could be a problem. For example, Collin Morikawa played 9 holes this morning and just started the second round.

Irons: 0.5 inch short and 2* Flat Mavrik 5 to AW (AW-105, PW-120, 9-135, 8-145) The lofts for these clubs are about 3* to 5* stronger  than standard.

Wedges: Mizuno MP-R series 52* and 56*. (80, 60)

Nickent: 4DX 2 hybrid 17* and 4 hybrid 23* (185 and 170 carry)

3 Wood: Tour Edge XGC 13* (195 carry)

Driver: Callaway FT IZ Driver 9* (210 carry, ~230 total)

This kind of thing happens all of the time.  Go look up how many holes Tiger played in one day, while winning the 2005 Masters.  Go back a little in history and you will find that playing 36 holes on the last day of an event were common.  Then there is the US Amateur, which still plays a 36 hole match for the finals.

If playing 27 holes is a problem for a player then, IMO, they have no business being a pro golfer, let alone playing in the Masters.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

Yeah, I think yesterday the holes were cut in the high spots of many greens given the rain.

Is there anything better than the Masters' website? I submit to you that there is NOT.

I picked JT in the one conversation I had with someone where they asked me to pick someone. That person picked Rahm.

JT hitting a tree and the ball ending up further away from the green on a punchout makes me feel better about all the times it happens to me.

Im and Ancer are doing well for their first Masters. I've heard that data predicts players don't start playing their best at ANGC after around 6 tournaments or something.

Yes, but it also reminds me of the time I was in the trees and was going to have to pitch out to be about 30 yards further from the green than where I was in the trees.  I pushed my pitch out, hit a tree, and it ricocheted into the fairway, 20 yards closer to the green than I started.  I went on to bogey the hole, IIRC.

    • Day 118: 4/23/24 Stack Full Speed spectrum training session 2/24. Finished 1 mph over last session but 4 mph slower than the preceding program.
    • Hitting some good shots on my golf trip. It's good I can tell when I hit better shots the way I want to swing the ball versus when I use an older swing. Shockingly, the short game has been at worst, not harmful to my game. I am using similar feels to the full swing, in that I try to get my hands down. I've been nipping the ball clean off the turf. 
    • I was laid off two months ago. Good severance, a 90 day layoff announcement regulation the company wanted to avoid so technically I'm still on the payroll for a few weeks, and a bunch of banked PTO, so I'm in a great spot and working on a startup idea I've been batting around with my brother for a while. That means I've got time to get to the gym! I'm at like 60-75 minutes 5x a week of strength training, and either a run or a bunch of time playing soccer or tennis with my daughter on the weekends. Stronger than I've been in forever. Up ~5 pounds of (noticeable!) muscle!
    • Do you have examples of exceptional scores versus their established handicap indexes?
    • Day 539, April 23, 2024 Mirror work once again. When I get back to swings, I'll just do it A. LOT.
