Not really interested in gimmick matches, it would be like Phil Mickelson + Tom Brady vs. Bryson DeChambeau + Aaron Rodgers in a football competition, quite gimmicky.

Yeah I’m not as into them either. Maybe they help reach other audiences with the celeb-athletes’ involvement.

I will pay to watch this. Will be better that the Phil/Tiger thing. My money is on BDC/Rodgers.

It won't draw me to the TV but if I'm bored, I'd watch.

I was thumbing thru magazines before recycle day and saw that the viewership of The Match 2 was 5.8m, the largest cable audience ever for a golf telecast (August 2020)

I really enjoyed the first one, with Tiger Phil and Brady.  I did not realize this is not the second one and the two things I watch the most on live TV are golf and football.

That was the second one.

The first was Tiger vs. Phil.

I've set this to record. This is tomorrow.

Just a heads up.

That's a pretty low bar!!!! :-)

 

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

5 p.m. eastern seems like an odd time for this, but I'll probably catch a bit of it.

With the ongoing saga of Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers this summer, it will be sort of interesting to watch him.

I’m only gonna watch hoping Bryson really unleashes on the driver. I can’t stand AR…total douche…I like the other guys fine.

I'll definitely dip into this. 

There's no chance I'll watch the entire thing. But yeah, I'll watch at least some of it.

I don't know crap about AR other than that discount double take thing. I'm curious as to why you think he's a D-bag. I'm not defending him. I seriously don't know anything about the guy. I'm not a Green Bay fan so I never really cared. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

    • Day 199: did a stack session. 
    • As usual, this is difficult to answer without seeing your swing. So, my first suggestion is to start a My Swing Thread.  After that, my next best guess is that you fade (slice) your driver more than your 3-wood.  I once played with a guy who had such a glancing blow with his driver that I could out drive him with my 6 iron.  Get with a good instructor and learn to hit your driver properly. Even with 93 mph swing speed you should be able to hit your driver 210-230. 
    • I recently returned to golf and got a Swing Caddy SC300i. It has confirmed what I have suspected for some time - I hit my 3 wood as far as my driver. This is backed up by similar swing speeds of 93 MPH. I have had 6 months off golf and exercise, so my speed is down a bit on what it was. Driver is 12 degrees, D1, Cobra 70g stiff shaft. 3 wood is 15 degrees, D0, Cleveland Gold 65g stiff shaft. The 3 wood feels great to me and flies straight. The driver feels dead to me and tends to slice. A local pro thinks the shafts are both a little on the soft side of stiff (which suits for me). The only difference I can see is the driver total weight is 340 grams and the 3 wood is 320 grams. My question is what is going on? Surely 20 grams should not slow my driver down to the same swing speed as my 3 wood?
