Good info. I don't know if taking 7 weeks off will be enough to give Fowler/Wolff any sort of edge, but its a start lol.

Pretty sure it was the caption of an Instagram of him mashing drivers, so if I were them I wouldn't get my hopes up haha

The only thing that I think may be an advantage for team FW (I don't think they'll be hitting too many fairway woods though lol) is that it is more relaxed of an event. Rory and DJ are known performers with good records in big events. This casual game may fit Rick/Matt better. Those that listen to NLU know that Rickie is a cat, not a dog lol.

If I am Puma Taylormade and whoever else the pros are rocking as a chance to really show their goods. Push carts, maybe Rickie uses a Clickgear. Dustin wearing Adidas shorts like most of us wear in our rounds. Rory slinging a new Taylormade light weight bag. Things like that. I get it is for charity but I see it as a real way to show pros wearing and playing the way we do. Obviously skill level is different. Thoughts?

On paper it seems like four-ball should be easy win for Rory and DJ so I’d much prefer a foursome to make it more even. That being said the way the skins are set up and as they are progressive this should still be entertaining as $750000 is still up for grabs on the final 2 holes and on any single hole the chances are pretty even. 
 

I’d even think a texas scramble would be even better for the excitement.

Lol!

Fowler/Wolff don't stand a chance.  I am rooting for them anyhow.

It's 18 holes. Virtually any Tour player would "stand a chance."

Oh, and it's a skins game.

Fowler’s mustache is awful.

Totally agree.  It seems to have hurt his game, too.

Wolff's Fu Manchu is nearly as bad!

Matthew’s swing is unwatchable.  Some how it reminds me of Charles Barkley’s swing.

I thought it was worse than fowlers, but it maybe helped his drive on number 2. Ufta!!

Maybe I should grow one to help with driver. He crushed it!

I couldn't disagree more. I think it's awesome and that drive on hole 2 was seriously impressive. 356 yards!

Going to be tough for me to watch with the dead time between shots, the attention span of a three year old I guess.. Nice to see them carrying their own bags. Wish they had solidarity with the rest of us and leave the flags in.

Interesting to see how long each takes to hit their shot. DJ doesn’t take any time at all. Wonder if thats normal or if its just because this is a for fun match.

Mine was doing the same on the Golf Channel. Switched to NBC and no issues so far
