Curious as to your thoughts on these posts…

I'll add my own commentary later.

"Elitist" is my first thought but... we don't have enough information to make a thorough understanding.  Ya, the guys are young and using carts to golf. That's the only fact we have.  We can guess the reason they aren't walking but Brad Faxon's or Mike Clayton's opinion isn't relative to their golf round.   The younger golfers I know think the cart is part of the golfing experience.   Most have never walked 18.  

We can speculate why they are using carts but it's a waste of time.

Mike Clayton's tweet is pretty bad but somehow Faxon's is even worse. 

You want to have an opinion on if golf should be played with or without carts, fine. You're entitled to your opinion, whatever. 

But judging someone for how they're putting the tee in the ground? Get lost Faxon.

    • Been trying to sharpen up distance control this year from 40 yards and in. Had a nice round going yesterday until a 5min shower of rain passed over us. Up to that point my bump and run were going the distances I have practiced them at ( always dry when I practice ) with little to no ground conditions changed with the rain, just the grass, ball and club face now wet, what was going 40 yards for me for the shots I needed up to that point were now going 50 yards plus for very similar lies, and swing length. So trying to figure out why I hit most/all my bump n run shots longer than required after the rain. Guess I will need to go practice bump n run in the rain but my theory is that the ball checks up lot less in wet conditions, firstly because I get less back spin on the ball because of wet ball and wet club face and secondly, when ball lands it will not check as much because the slippery surface even if it did have as much back spin on it as it would have if ball and club were both dry.  The amount of rain it made did absolutely nothing to make the greens softer.  Any thoughts appreciated 
    • I enjoyed the competition.  The shots holed from the sand were almost worth the price of admission!
