It could be July?  August?  May?  September?    I just picked June for an example 

He was responding to your question which specifically asked about June. You didn’t explain that you were suggesting any month…you specified June…which was why he responded the way he did.

Justin Leonard: ‘ When it was windy I’d try to shorten my putting stroke. I had a rather long and slow stroke and that can give the wind more time to mess with the putter face so I’d shorten it some and make it quicker.’

I’m calling bollocks. These kind of comments by commentators are just pure clubhouse talk. I don’t believe there’s any science or truth to this. The wind could blow his putter face offline during a stroke? Come on. Rubbish!

So how would you guys play 17 right now? Just curious. @iacas?

I was trying to see how many of these I could fill in from the top of my head.  I got stuck 'cause I couldn't remember how the PGA championship and tour championship were rescheduled.

And hurricane season runs from June through November.

I heard that about the wind and filed it in my mental "just missed a 2-footer" file.

How to play it, 2 extra clubs so maybe a 5 iron,, target dead center of green (i.e. where I think my center of shot pattern will be). Based on what I think is the wind direction, alignment about 5 paces right for the wind.  LOL, right!

With a knock down 7 iron and a dozen Pinnacles.

I get the wind and visual uncertainty but what's with the swings where the ball is landing like 15 yards offline in the water?

It's just weird to see these guys make swings that seems like they have lost all knowledge of a simple golf swing.

The wind can move the putter face a little bit. But it's not enough I'd shorten up or anything. I might grip it a bit more firmly or something.

I could see some truth to this.

The Masters is in April, and the weather in FL is usually quite fine in March. It just isn't this year.

    • Day 323 - Opposite of yesterday, focusing more on taking a full backswing than anything else.
    • Day 139: worked on putting for a while. Did the two cups drill for bead. 
    • It’s winter here and time hitting at my indoor place.  This year I bought and sold a few sets so I didn’t settle in on anything. For this coming season, starting now I have a choice to make.  What set would you guys use? 1.  Nike Vapor Pro irons - They are like new, hit them some last year before I had to demo other sets.  I love them, original grips, barely used so I’m almost not wanting to use them to keep their value up.  Standard LLL and standard grips. 2. Taylormade P7TW irons - Still in the box.  Got them over a year ago but had too much to hit, never used them.  Have used a set in the past and loved them.  Ended up with my own set custom fit to me -1/4”, 1 degree flat midsize grips.  These are probably not as valuable because they are still available and they are fit to me. I hate to put the Nikes away but it makes more sense to save them than the TW’s…. I dunno…. 
    • Day 215 (3 Dec 24) - Another very chilly day - opted to work on easy pitches in the backyard. Worked thru the irons and wedges - focused on foot position and tempo.
