“It is Tiger's policy NOT to sign golf balls,” said Rob McNamara, vice president of Tiger’s ETW Corporation. “This has been his policy since a very early age, prior to turning professional.”

LOL. sorry I had to post that. I remember reading something about Tiger and not signing a golf ball for a charity. I dont blame you for not selling it. Its pretty cool.

Why doesn't he sign balls? Too hard to sign? That sucks. If I could get it, I'd keep that ball forever. Talk about a keepsake: a ball that was a 1 in 2000 shot to even get, then get Tiger's autograph on it?

Nothing in the swing is done at the expense of balance.

What I would do is see if you could get Steve, his caddy, to trade you for a real Tiger ball that has his name stamped on it!!

I'd go ahead and use the ball on the toughest water hole on my home course... it wouldn't dare go into the hazard, would it???

bump - caught the televised "winners" show a few weeks ago. :grumpy: Tiger seems cool as hell, I can't imagine being able to talk golf with him, even for one hole.

Hate to say this here with Soncblue's bad luck, but I truly enjoyed watching the show with AK. Found it very refreshing to listen to his answers to some of the questions.

Sorry to hear that you missed out on the opportunity.

I wouldn't ever use it in a round and risk loosing it, that would suck too!

Ya, once I found a Nike One Black that said "Proto" and then something else after that. I figured it was a prototype that some guy lost and told that to all of my buddies

. Then I lost it on a par 3 course

If winning isn't everything why do they keep score?

I'd take a baseball bat and hit that ball into the deepest ravine I could find. Looking at it would just fill me with disappointment.

    • The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  OP makes this statement "I now understand that standards are different on the "private course." But I'll take those lessons to the muni, too."  No, the standards are not different.  You, sir, seem to be just a bit hard headed and belligerent, even if you are college professor...which possibly explains a lot.   JMHO
    • Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues. 
    • Day 44 (26 Dec 25)  -  played in the Friday men’s shootout with a twist - used the Toney Penna persimmons and MacGregor blades - had a blast playing these clubs.  They really help in zoning in on making solid ball contact.  Scoring was solid - had several looks at birdie and had a few par saves.  Overall a day of focused course management.
