This week's Thrash Talk deals with Colin Montgomerie's career battle with winning on United States soil and also major championships. Here are a few questions to get your interested, but be sure to read Thrash Talk in the morning.

1. Is Monty the best golfer ever to have never won a major?

2. Will Monty ever win on United States soil?

3. Will Monty end up in the Hall of Fame?

Alright, there ya go. That should get you all pumped up for some Colin Montgomerie discussion.

1. Not even close.

2. Not likely now. His best chance was yesterday.

3. Can't really think of a reason why he should.

Monty seems like a really personable guy who is normally more charitable to us yanks then we often are to him. Doesn't deserve most of the crap he's been given, but as a golfer he is simply very, very, good. Flashes of brilliance don't get you into the HOF.

1. Is Monty the best golfer ever to have never won a major?

No. Sergio Garcia, Adam Scott, and a LOT of other people top Monty. Kenny Perry could beat Monty eight times out of ten.

2. Will Monty ever win on United States soil?

Nope. Unless you count the Ryder Cup, in which case he already has. But as an individual? No, he's washed up. This year has been a final day in the sun.

3. Will Monty end up in the Hall of Fame?

No, and I already voted that way

in the poll . We do have polls here, Cody.

I think if he'd have done a full US season, he'd have atleast won one event. Plus, he's got a darn sexy swing.

    • Well, I have a 2 hybrid, 4 hybrid and then play 6 iron onwards.  My best clubs are probably the 4 hybrid and the PW.  What I find is that loft is your friend in general which is why my 4 hybrid is so much better than my 2 hybrid.  Definitely disproportionately more so than the 5 or so degrees of difference in loft.  If you have hybrids, play them.  And consider loft as your friend.  Invariably you will get up to a loft where anything less will not get you more distance because of your club head speed.  Essentially the faster you swing the less lofted a club you can hit effectively.  For me it is probably a 4 hybrid and maybe a 7 iron though I could improve both with practice
    • Off to my home state of Massachusetts this morning. 9 this afternoon,  18 tomorrow,  and 18 on Saturday. Hoping for some good scores but will be just happy playing with good friends.
