We've all heard about "Luke Donald golf", but yesterday I heard a commentator say that a par Donald made was "a Luke Donald par."
Since "Luke Donald" has become an adjective, a describing word, I would like to establish a clear definition for it. I'll go first.
Luke Donald (adj) - Looks like a winner, but never quite good enough, as in "The fish I ordered was Luke Donald. I should have gone for the steak."

"That's Golf!"

"Looks like a winner, but never quite good enough" I think that is the 'Anna Kournikova' definition...

(It's used for Ace-King in Texas Hold-em poker, I believe!)

      The Stack System - A Conversation on Gaining Swing Speed

      By MK4 ·

      @DeadManI used to use the Swing Speed radar and, in hindsight, it seems very unreliable.  As @iacassaid, it's prone to misplacement, and I'd sometimes get wildly different speeds from swing-to-swing: like a 103mph, followed by 118mph, then a 102mph, then a 114mph.  I didn't know any better at the time and thought that was normal.  I've since upgraded radars and the new speeds seem much more accurate/consistent. Also, Mike Carroll (FFG) used to have the SSR and he now calls it a 'random number generator'.

      I have it. Works good. As all things electronics, there are analog elements that can 'weaken' like the microwave signal emitting/receiving or the contact between it and conversion module, etc. Might be time for a new one.     P.S. I've had it for a few years. Other than replacing the battery haven't had any periods of wild reads.
