As a Scot, our game has been in the doldrums for a few years, with no one in the top 100 rankings and Monty on the way, or so it looks, it was great to see Richie win today in South Africa.

Well done to him, and just hope he can go from strength to strength in 2010 and with some exciting young talent coming through, hopefully we can climb the Golf Rankings as a Nation again.

What a beautiful course at Pearl Valley in Paarl, Western Cape, South Africa it looks, would love a trip down there someday in that part of the World to play on their courses. The Alfred Dunhill was an excellent tournament last week and they have some amazing courses in South Africa.

Molinairi looks like he's on topform right now and probably doesn't want to see the Christmas break as he's been playing superb recently after his year on the Challenge Tour here in Europe. Also, another great tournament from Pablo Martin of Spain, after his success last week at the Alfred, he showed he's got some great potential and after excellent consistent Spaniard he looks.

Once again, I doubt he read this forum, but well done Richie and good luck for 2010.

You've got Martin Laird winning the JT Shriners Open this year too.

Well said - I played a lot of Junior golf with Richie and I always knew he had the mentality as well as the talent to do well.

    • 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.
    • 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.
    • @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.
