I find it so fascinating listen to Tiger talk about golf. It is a bit of insight into his genius as the GOAT. 

Some interesting take aways. 

1. Tiger takes every short game shot as like he reads a putt. While for irons it is more understanding slopes. 
2. He is always trying to do something with the ball, either cutting it or drawing it. He may cut it against the slope to slow down the roll out. So, if the ball is going to move right to left. He may cut it into the slope. 
3. Lie is everything. So, getting use to reading lies is probably the best skill to learn as fast as possible. 
4. He is trying to land in an area, not on an exact spot.

      USGA/R&A Changes to the Equipment Standards?

      But what about the guys on that other forum who are all hitting it like 405? .... For them that's going to take 20 yards! 🤣 Seriously though, I heard like most of the balls sold today are already compliant. So, if you are using one of those (as I think I am), there will very literally be no difference.

      Yea, I think something like 5% to start out with is good. See how that works out.  Majority of people are not playing PGA tour courses, so I doubt they will feel bad for clubbing up one club on their approach shots.

      I'll be pretty quick in saying that I was against the roll-back when they were talking about 20% or even 10%. I didn't think it was necessary to regulate the entire game based on the top 0.1%. I was also (and remain) against bifurcation, as it harms everyone just below the line striving to get to the point above the line. But this is like a 4% rollback, and it relieves some stress from courses and people and finances… without really affecting 95% of golfers much at all… so yeah, shut up. It's fine. People watching aren't able to tell the difference between a 330-yard tee shot and a 315-yard tee shot.

      This is an interesting article - it seems like the PGA Tour is going to come out against the rollback: PGA Tour quietly testing golf ball rollback: What do players think? The PGA of America isn’t the only governing body that may be in opposition to the USGA and R&A’s plan for a golf ball rollback. Brian Harman has some interesting and smart quotes in there that mirror what rollback-skeptic people have been saying. But I want to dunk on Lucas Glover: The NBA moved the 3 point line twice in the 90s. The NCAA moved the 3 point line twice in the past 20 years (the last time was for the 2019-20 season). College football narrowed the goal posts in 1991. And the NFL pushed back the extra point in 2015 because kickers weren't missing extra points. Beyond those specific points, sports make rule changes all the time to make the sport better. Baseball is an obvious, recent example. Hockey did things like eliminate the two line pass fairly recently. Soccer had a huge change in 1992 when it eliminated the back pass. So that's pretty ignorant and stupid. But this is even worse: Are you f***ing kidding me? You make millions for hitting a tiny ball in on a grass field. Boo f***ing who.
