rory's not ready, not even close. he's not even won a pga tour event, and i don't think he's got the game just yet to make this his first.

he does have the game as he is an awesome golfer and he's won before on the european tour and hasnt played too many events on the pga tour anyway!

Camilo Villegas (+1)
Dustin Johnson (E)
Sean O'Hair (+2)
Rory McIlroy (-1)
Hunter Mahan (-3)
Michael Sim (+1)
Retief Goosen (+4)*

* = through 10 holes

yeah, he's won a european tour event. but he's up against the best of the best, the top 100. if by some chance he ended up with tiger in the final pairing on sunday, that would be disastrous.

rory's not ready, not even close

not even close hey.......

well it's day 2 and he's currently tied for 3rd @ -3 after 15 yes i know a lot can happen in 2 days....but i would say he's good enough not only to contend...but to win and yes, he has won...little tournament called the Dubai Desert Classic this is a pretty impressive resume for his 1st year pro: BMW International Open 15 US OPEN 10T The European Open 12 BMW PGA Championship 5 US MASTERS 20T Shell Houston Open 19T WGC - CA Championship 20T Honda Classic 13T WGC - Accenture Match Play Quarter Finalist Abu Dhabi Golf Championship 5T South African Open 3T UBS Hong Kong Open 2T

not even close hey.......

he's impressive, don't get me wrong. i just don't think he's got the mental fortitude to play with tiger on sunday and beat him. if paddy can't do it, who's won three major tournaments, how can you expect a 19 year old kid to do it. and i never said he hasn't won, i said he hasn't won on the PGA tour. that victory was on the european tour i believe.

not too shabby i guess, aside from the fact that my boy DL3 didn't make the cut

and tiger's not playing his best golf today. but everyone else is in my top four. i'd really like to see ernie take down another major, give him some confidence.

Who was really suprising me today and yesterday was Lee Westwood... I thought his fight at Turnberry would be one of his big breaks but he was scoring very strong today. Unfortunately he finished with some bogeys at the end but I wouldn't be suprised if he came into contention again tomorrow.

Weapons of Choice:

Driver: HiBore XL
Woods: 3 & 5 Power Play Caman's
Irons: Rac'sWedges: Professional Open Series 690 52 & 60 degreePutter: Crimson Series 550Bag: Stand BagGlove: MLBall: JUICE

      I've been really absent all things golf since September but have been getting the bug lately.  Today in SE Michigan we have our first thaw of the year.  It is Sunny and 53 degrees and boy do I want to get on a golf course!  Spring is around the corner 🙂

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By bkuehn1952 ·

      I assume you are posting 15 or 16 holes and letting the USGA algorithm insert projected scores for the missing holes. How is that going? Are the projected scores reasonable? I have yet to do this.

      The Stack System - A Conversation on Gaining Swing Speed

      By DeadMan ·

      You're right. I haven't really had an issue with this before, but it's definitely worth closing the legs a bit to see what happens. I've had 2 of these and never had this problem before. About 5 years of use between the 2. It's really odd. Yeah, I've always had a bit of inconsistency and misreads, but this is a new level. I did a baseline session last night, and all my of stack speeds had decreased by roughly 5-10 mph (with me throwing out the obvious garbage readings). Weirdly, the driver speed actually seemed to be right where I expected it. I guess maybe it's having trouble with the smaller head of the stack vs. a driver? Whatever it is, I think it's time for me to go with the stack radar.

      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.
