Guy Boros!! Seriously, that guy rules. I don't know how he plays but he does! I followed him awhile back and by the 14th he was running on fumes. Awesome.

But really my favorites are the local guys Jerry Kelley and Steve Striker. Non-local I'd go with Tiger Woods (how can you not enjoy watching him play golf?). I don't really have a favorite I guess but Woods is a guy I'm going to try and watch every swing. I mainly watch the pros to see their swings and how they play certain shots and situations. And just to watch guys compete at the highest level. I do hate Sergio though.

For Nationwide tour it's fun to watch Michael Sim and Roger Tambellini.

He reportedly wanted to play $500k a hole vs michael jordan, and jordan declined as he couldn't afford it.

As a Northern Irish man, Rory McIllroy looks like a potential world beater and a very good player already. Also have a lot of time for Padraig Harrington.

Ben Hogan, all the way.

There are no shortcuts in the quest for perfection.

There are three ways to beat somebody: You outwork them, you out-think them, and then you intimidate them.

Im sure this has been asked before but I'm curious, who is your favorite golfer to watch.  Im not asking who you think is the best but who do you enjoy the most.

I like Rory Mcilroy (despite his recent struggles this year, hopefully he's bouncing back) because he's about my size (I'm 5'10) and to see a guy bit as far as him I like to see and I think his swing is gorgeous, love how fluid he is.

I also like Phil Mickelson a lot because he is a good guy and his short game never ceases to amaze me.

Who is your favorite player?

Keegan Bradley.. I just like the fact that he's a normal person.. Like he doesn't keep his trophies in his house, he stays down to earth, and I just like a golfer who is like that...

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
