My point being that it's a meaningless poll when you arbitrarily break down the boundaries so nobody gets an "unfair" advantage.... I repeat.....

well.... not saying the poll was perfect, but it was HIS poll. Country's borders are sometimes drawn in very arbitraty manner (look at the Middle East) and how in the hell would a country of 5 million people compete with a country of 400 million, plus some countries have higher percentages of golfers. Point is... this is not going to be "fair" by all standards regardless how you set up a poll. However, this was his poll, and it is possible to answer HIS question based on the selections provided. Why are being such a flamer about it?

I suppose it is rediculous that the Ryder cup is USA v. Europe (not a single country) or that the President's Cup is USA v. Non-Eurpoean World. Maybe you should create a new poll since this one is so flawed.
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...

Personally I don't care what he does. I've lost interest in the entire, and to me meaningless, discussion...

How about instead of arguing and wasting space on a page each of you just say the county you believe has the best golfers and say 'I picked other' or whatever. Let's stay on topic here. I think everybody is down for a heated debate but lets make it about the topic, not about how the topic is categorized.

True, who really are the best golfing countries? explain?

      My Swing (Gestate0560)

      By iacas · Posted

      Yes, because you have lifted to like 120° without bending the left elbow. So when you turn and the left elbow bends… it bends in such a way that you then lower your left humerus and pull the club around you.

      Day 3 (23 Jun 26) - Grandson put in to play this morning when he arrived at the house.  He wanted to play a full 18 from the "purple" tees (these are custom tees that play shorter than our gold but longer than the red) in a best (super) ball duet.  Was a great day working on course management - seeing him play well (for a 10yr old) - for example, hole 12 has a temp green about 100 yds from the tee box, he hits a solid 8i to 4' pin high and nails a birdie putt.  Could have never been prouder.  These are the moments grandfathers dream of - and hopefully the memories he will recall when his day comes to be Paw-paw for his grandson....may the game live on.
