Golfed 9 holes today at the golf club and had a sub 45 round in my sights. I stepped up to the final tee just hoping not to get into trouble when i took my swing with my 3 wood (I don't hit a driver) and watched the ball go 270 yards. I just couldn't believe it. I ended up finishing with a 45 for the round but it should have been lower because there were so stupid shots earlier in the round.

I do have to admit that the hole plays slightly downhill so in reality it was probably only around 250 but I will take it any way i can get it.

Nice.

Sometimes when I pull my 3 wood I have such confidence in it I can really let my swing go and extend through the ball and end up with some tee shots that go further than my driver. It comes and goes though....

Great shot!

I had a drive one time with my 3-wood that went about 240 or 250. I was doing the math in my head just standing there. The guys had to yell at me, "Hey, you going to play that or just stare at it!"

I couldn't believe it went that far. I wrote it down on my scorecard under all the names: "Drive 3w 240". I felt like I needed to mark the occasion.

      Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want.

      Phil Mickelson Booted out of Farms Golf Club

      While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).

      Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.

      No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??

      I don't think that is true at all. That is off-topic here, I think.
