Is it just me, or was the month of May pretty sucky on the PGA Tour?

I was definitely bored while watching the tournaments, with the lone exception of the Wachovia Championship way back at the beginning of the May.

A month of winner's including Brett Wetterich, Tim Herron, and Jeff Maggert isn't my cup of tea. Maybe I'm in the minority on this one, who knows?!?

I just know I'm ready for The Memorial, U.S. Open, etc. in the upcoming month.

Did anyone else find themselves bored out of their mind watching the PGA Tour this past month?

Also, don't forget to read the entire Thrash Talk in the morning.

Yeah, May is a little ho-hum as far as PGA golf goes. I enjoyed watching but this is the first time I've had television in a while so maybe I'm the exception to the rule. Tiger's been off for a while and the usual players aren't contending so yeah, its been pretty slow.

Next year, we'll have The Players Championship, at least.

It seems the big guns take most of May off since it falls after the Masters and a few weeks before the Open. May has always stunk for that reason.

      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.
