Who are you guys pickin' to win the FBR?

I'm taking Phil Mickelson, but I can't wait to hear the crowd roar when Pat Perez hits his tee-shot on 16.

I'm going to say that Bubba Watson wins, honorable mention to Hunter Mahan.

Got to go with Jim furyk if he is playing.

superfast tp 2.0 3 wood stiff
Halo 25 and taylormade tp 19 degree hybrids

tp 52* wedge, tp 56* taylormade spider mallet putter


Don't know if his shoulder is allright.I'm going with Phill as he allways plays well there and hopefully he has a burr up his butt for falling all the way to #4 and deservedly so I may add.

no one is picking JB for #3

actually, if it wasn't for the Ryder Cup I would hate JB... and I'm still not a big fan...

so I guess I'll go with Lefty... AK for the young guns... and David Toms for the old men.

My Clubs: Callaway FT-i Tour LCG 9.5° w/ Matrix Ozik Xcon 6 stiff; Sonartec GS Tour 14° w/ Graphite Design Red Ice 70 stiff; Adams Idea Pro 2h(18°) & 3h(20°) w/ Aldila VS Proto 80 stiff; Adams Idea Pro Forged 4-PW w/ TT Black Gold stiff; Cleveland CG12 DSG RTG 52°-10° & 58°-10°; Odyssey...

I'll take John Senden as my pick. He is due for a win and an amazing ball striker to add to that.

I'm taking Derek Fathauer. Nice rookie kid who had a nice performance last week. I think he by far and away is the best rookie from the 09 class.

JB and Phil are my horses.

I'm taking Derek Fathauer. Nice rookie kid who had a nice performance last week. I think he by far and away is the best rookie from the 09 class.

Fathauer hasn't won a dime on tour.

Webb Simpson's 12th on the money list. Catch my drift?

As much as I hate to do so, I'm going with Phil. I hear one isn't supposed to let emotions rule bets. So that's what I'm doing. We play a similar game at my shop. $20 and pick one player, whomever's player finished highest takes the loot.

Anyway, I think Phil may come out pretty hot and play pretty well this entire year really. I have a feeling his been doing some serious training, physical and golf, during the off season to prove himself worthy. Not to mention AZ is practically his second golf home.

If his shoulder is alright, I think this tournament is ripe for AK. Second choice: Webb Simpson.

Ouch... 3 bogeys and 2 doubles so far. It's going to be tough to make up all that ground.

    • If you still have that code available, I would love to get a copy. We have PowerShell code that pulls indexes and individual 9-hole handicaps for the tee sets of the course we play. We have 40 players and use this data for skins. We do skins by flight which we have 4 of them A,B,C,D and without pulling this data it would be almost impossible to do in the application. Right now, we also grab each "card" as it comes off the course and put it into a spreadsheet to help us understand who won the round and helps us with skins. Each golfer is required to enter their own scores in GHIN also. Our goal is to have each golfer enter in the scores in GHIN but pull the individual hole scores down each week after the round is posted so that we can figure skins, and points. I found a site for APIs, but it is old referencing https://api.ghin.com/api/v1. Our current code uses https://api2.ghin.com/api/v1. I tried using that along with what was provided in the old doc, but it appears many of the API signatures changed. I'm hoping I can use the python code to get examples of the API calls I need. if nothing else I could recode ours to use python.
    • This is pretty interesting. I don't have a Stack radar so I can't use the app, but given what they say it should be fairly easy to come up with some kind of proxy to it if I spend an hour with a trackman. Just note what ball speed gives what distances and plot it. It's presumably not directly linear, but if you hit 50 shots between 30 and 100 yards, you'll have enough to pin down most yardages in that window (yards vs ball speed). Then rather than trying to match distances, just try to match ball speeds with whatever radar you do have. The whole strokes gained thing would be more difficult, but that's not really necessary to work on it. Or just buy a Stack radar...
    • I don't think that is what the study was showing. It just showed that golfers who spent less time over the ball performed better. It didn't say pending their normal pace.
    • No…? When we edit the title of topics, a little note appears.
    • Rush or delay your own pace and you are probably going to suffer in the long run. PGA pro are well oiled machines that work on an specific pace, it's not surprise that if you move them out of their normal routine things are going to go sideways. I normally don't rush shots, but I sometimes delay the trigger if I'm not feeling it. The result is a lack of athleticism, I kind of get a little stiff and I could loose some yards and accuracy.
