I see Jose Maria Olazabal is doing well. That is great, and I wish him well. While Seve always had intensity, Jose Maria was the cool dude who partnered well with the Hot Head during the Ryder Cup matches. I thought he was an old guy, but he was born in 1966, so he is only 43 years old---a "youngster".

Oh yeah, he's still got time to get his game back together and put his name near the top of the leaderboard on the tours (U.S. and Europe). He's definitely not old enough to already be looking ahead of the Champions Tour.

You are right. He shot a 74 today, and is now even par, 14 shots behind Brian Gay. History shows that some older players have trouble keeping it going for all four rounds. Freddie Couples always comes so close, and so does Davis Love III, but they just cannot win the trophy. You have to give them credit, though, for playing as well as they do. Those two will be on the Champions Tour soon, and should do well. They can still hit their drives pretty far, and putting is the weak spot for each of them.

Since I will be 61 years old next month, I instinctively root for the "gray hairs".

Note to self: when Brian Gay leads on Saturday, there's no reason to tune in on Sunday.

You are so right. He was a wire to wire winner.

I am not attempting to start a controversy, but I am interested to see if he can keep his composure with a certain someone nipping at his heels. Both of his wins were with a comfortable lead on 18. How impressive was that bird on 18 though. Wow! Nothing like slamming it home. Kudos to Brian.

      Spend Less Time Over the Ball

      By GolfLug ·

      I speak for myself. If I inventory my swing thoughts, swing tempo, optimum muscle tension and rehearse a swing before I take my address, then I pull the trigger reasonably quickly with usually acceptable results. Like a proper program download before deploying it. If I don't bother to by forgetting or just not caring, I am inclined to look for my cues while hovering over the ball after taking the address, while tension builds up and then I fire with a half ass program that is still buffering. I guess that's no better than rolling a dice. In other words, a good pre-shot routine does wonders. I am not advising folks to take 13 practice swings while the flowers wilt waiting for something to happen, but one or maybe two are reasonable and good for you. I am certain hitting half ass shitty shots and making double bogey takes longer than making a par.  My desire this year is to just that as I have not developed a habit taking a practice swing and as a result have tendency to freeze over the ball after address, that is counter productive for both time and result. I think that is what @saevel25 is talking about in the OP.

      Spend Less Time Over the Ball

      By gbogey ·

      I think there's a difference between taking time over the ball and taking time to play a shot, at least IMO. One thing I've noticed in a few guys I play with who take a long time over the ball to pull the trigger, is that their backswing is really fast and I think it makes it harder to have a smooth rhythmic down swing. It's almost like they take so long to swing that when they do they speed to catch up. Doesn't lead to good golf IMO.

      As long as it's from a reputable seller it should be just fine. Just make sure the picture of the weight looks the right shaped weight for that specific driver head. You can even weigh it yourself when you get it if you want to be extra sure. Personally I don't consider $15 for something that can greatly change your impact and delivery characteristics to be "not cheap" but that's just my opinion. Especially since you know it's bringing it closer to what you were fit into and you're already saving a bunch of money by going the used/prior model year route too.
