I can see your irony detector is working well. Yes, only joking.👍

 If he wasn't joking, then he certainly doesn't know too much about the Masters.

Looks like I’m the only one here pulling for Hideki to win 🤷🏻

I'm rooting for him, as is a friend of mine (not present with me) who doesn't even play golf.  I really like Xander also, and I suppose Xander playing the rest in -5 and winning and getting me that towel would be pretty neat.

But I certainly don't want to see Matsuyama fall off or anything like that.

Where did you read that? The problem with Augusta is that the boring nature of the back 9 pretty much guarantees a "snoozefest". 🤣

Huh? Molinari lost it on the back nine. Seve lost the 1986 Masters on the back nine. Norman lost the Masters on the back nine.

Don't they say that the tournament starts on the front 9 on Friday?

They say you can’t win the Masters on Thursday or Friday, but you can lose it.

Yeah, but NOBODY ever says that the back 9 is  set up for drama. That's why they say "redesign 11, 12, 13 and 15 and you've got a great tournament course".

If it was, there's be several of examples of how exciting things happen there.

Rory never choked there.

Nicklaus would've made a run there or something.

Or someone would've hit multiple balls in the water on 12.

As soon as they putt out on 9, the tournament is over.

And the only way to hole out on #10 on Sunday is to do so from on the green.

It would appear that someone very important is rooting for Hideki too.

Hideki on #13 is trying his best to make this interesting for everyone else, but Someone is not going to allow that to happen.

Xander is not about to give up.

Someone has to get to -10 just to keep this interesting.

Speith needs to start vocalising his thoughts, rather than making Greller guess what he is thinking all the time.

    • While on vacation in Punta Cana a few weeks ago I played with rental clubs, Mizuno Pro 245's with KBS Tour Lite steel shafts. Surprisingly, I was blown away, not only by the distance, trajectory and dispersion I was getting but also about how soft and buttery they felt. It got me thinking.... IT'S TIME FOR NEW IRONS! Just yesterday, at my local Golf Galaxy, I tested them again side by side with the JPX Forged (recommended by the Mizuno rep who happened to be there) which also felt pretty good. Not as buttery soft as the 245's but they did produce slightly better numbers on off-center hits. Also, I haven't played with forged clubs with steel shafts in 10 years thinking I was getting too old and that I needed the lighter weight but these clubs with that shaft felt really, really good. So that's my long and drawn-out intro to my question: Does anyone here at TST play with either of these clubs and if so, what's your opinion?

    • By today’s standards that’s certainly true, but they weren’t having any trouble hitting golf balls in 2005 so I’ve equipped myself with what was among the very best equipment around that time for a very reasonable investment. If I get to the point where I feel like I’ve outgrown that stuff, I’ll reward myself with something more current. But for now I don’t need adjustable loft and lie and modern head shape, just a good quality, proven club with a clean club face. For now I’m going to concentrate on the basics. I know you can get more yardage with newer woods, but I don’t care about distance nearly as much as consistency, and you can’t buy that for any price.
