I think the sarcasm was at saturation level.

No contest. Jack by a mile. Look what happens when these guys revert to a softer ball to hold the greens with V grooves. They hit the driver all over the map. Jack used a ball that spun much more but could still hit it 300 down the middle. If jack was given the modern ball he would have won 30 majors.

They were gonna give Jack the modern ball but not let anyone else use it? Jack might have had a few more majors, but the reason has nothing to do with equipment-he just needed to cultivate a stronger short game.

I am a Tiger fan for several reasons:
He is a legend in his own right
He is what you compare others to for a sign of how good they are
He seems to be a perfectionist when it comes to his game.

ya know,... this is a silly argument,.. there will never be any way to compare the two guys and definitely say who was better, or the best,... they are both awesome, have had great success at all levels, both were totally dominating their era's, both have brilliant highlight reels, and they both played with the best equipment available,... Jacks equipment was better than the guys 20 years before him, Tigers equipment is better than Jacks but you play with the times, so it's a moot point,...
nobody knows now, nobody will ever know,...
I love to watch them both play golf,...
I just hope Tiger can over come his BIG problems he put on himself and just tie Jack in majors and then retire !
It's a tie,...!
Let's be happy we had them to watch.
Good Golf Times,...

He may be a moron but he's kinda a god ._.

Tiger has been an influence on everyone in this country, especially those with an ethnic background. 2000 US Open is the greatest display of golf ever, that says enough.

I have to go with Jack because of who he was competing against at the time. If you put Jack first or second and Tiger in the other spot, the majority of the rest of the top 10 would be players that Jack competed against. Just my two cents.

I like this. Of all the 2770 other posts that may put it in the best perspective.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
