Actually yes! Googled "hate Gary Player" and it lead me to this site. By the looks of it I'm not the only one who hates him.

Why in the world would you Google that? You might need a hobby, something to take up your free time.

For me, it has to be Gary Player. Fancy making allegations about drug usage and saying that you know who's doing steroids but not giving any names. It seems like he's been trying to draw attention to

I don't hate anyone. I don't even dislike anyone. However, one guy's been rubbing me the wrong way lately. Gary Player. You can look up what Tom Watson said to him about pressing the grass dow

Brave perspective. Did you really have to dig up a five-year old thread for that?

Yeah, 'hate' is a strong word. In fact, I envy every single player who plays on the tour for their skill at the game...even the ones I don't like. Which would include the following:

Sabbatini - For reasons already expressed. Don't be calling out Tiger when you're 70 wins & 14 majors behind him.

Anthony Kim - Squandering his talent thru excessive partying (allegedly). Hey, work hard, play hard...nothing wrong with that. Except when you drop the 'work hard' part.

Any player who over-emotes a shot result...this would include Tiger - And you're seeing this more & more; they turn away in disgust when the ball is in the air...and then it lands 20 feet from the hole. Guys, this isn't life & death, and you cannot hide behind the "Oh he's just intense" excuse. I think in most cases these guys know when the camera is on them & wanna ham it up.

Because when I googled detest and dislike Gary Player I couldn't find anything. And if this is my opinion of the guy it certainly can't be wrong. So why do you even care?

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Gary Player isn't your all-time favorite golfer.

Odd that you would hate him. I've met him a few times, and he seems like a really great guy.

Guess he doesn't owe you money. Anyone that owes Me money and doesn't pay is a deadbeat in my book.

Just because his name is on a club has nothing to do with who owns or runs the business.  Surely you don't think that Tiger manages the day to day operations of the Tiger Woods division of Nike Golf?  Companies go out of business, and when they do creditors get back little or nothing of what they are owed.  You aren't the first and you won't be the last.  No matter how you look at it, Gary Player owes you nothing .  You come off as nothing but a troll with posts and comments like this.

And no he's certainly not my favorite player, for no other reason than he was Jack's competition and Jack was my guy.

I just find it amusing that you went through the trouble of googling "Hate Gary Player" and then came onto this forum and opened a dead thread just to let us all know. ;-). Btw, I seriously doubt that Mr. Player personally decided not to refund your money.

Btw, I seriously doubt that Mr. Player personally decided not to refund your money.[/quoted isn't realize it was a dead thread till afterwards. I too find it equally amusing that you would call me out on a thread entitled "who do you hate most on tour". Did I do something wrong by contributing my honest opinion to this thread? And furthermore don't YOU have anything better to do then question my humble opinion?

I would say Brandel Chamblee, but he wasn't good enough to stay on tour.  Or maybe he quit so he wouldn't mess up his hair.

You were called out because your "honest" and "humble opinion" is ridiculous and naive. It has nothing to do with the guy.

When I initially posted there were several reasons. Of course I know Gary Player doesn't personally owe me money. Why are you being a Troll? I'm on topic, stated my opinion and did not start an argument with anyone. You on the other hand will not give it a rest. Is cyber-bullying your hobby?

Not sure who you're referring to since no quote. You are entitled to your opinion, but when you're opinion is:

then prepare to be called out.

You came on here and posted something that some of us find silly and now that people are making their thoughts known, you want to give it a rest?

Keegan Bradly.   Whenever I see him, I feel like slapping his face.   Hit the freaking ball already!

Anthony Kim and other one hit wonders who get too big in the head and plummets like a rock after their first (and often the only) win.

I am sure others mentioned Sergio Garcia?   Second that.

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By M2R · Posted

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
