Rickie's popular with the young crowd. People be askin Tiger to sign Fowler hats at Chevron, you see that? He's in the Tour, not going anywhere. But I've had enough of the all-orange, skin included, look. Everybody's gotta have their 'Tiger red and black' Sunday outfits these days. It's not original. Rickie's got Puma to design anything he wants, so he chooses all orange. We get it, it's his university colors. Why not change colors every Sunday, kinda like makin Easter eggs. Yeah, and when you win, stick with that one.

I remembered another player who wear a shallow brimmed doily hat - Major Champion Stewart Cink. The slightest breeze and that think would be gone off my head - and good riddance!! Give me a Hunter Mahan style chapeau any day!!

It is hard to go against Mahans's and even Woodland's style because i think under armour has the best golf clothing line on the planet. I like Fowler's style but Mahan stands alone in my book,Puma does make some gnarly stuff to.

1. He's a kid. Kids have made dressing like a blind moron their thing since.... well, always.

2. He's a motocross racer. Trust me, it could be WAAAAAAY worse. (exhibit A: Jeremy "Twitch" Stenberg.)

LOL i think you went a little overboard with this pic.His clothes are fitted they are just bright.And the hat is just a style for the young guys,just trying to be a little hip i guess.

Most people have a problem with Fowlers style because it is unlike anything that we have seen in the past. To be honest I like his style, it's something that sets him apart from any other player on the tour. It has increased his exposure on the tour, with out winning a tournament and still won rookie of the year over Rory Mcilroy. You may hate his style , but he has most likely brought more exposure to the tour...You could call it the Happy Gilmore effect...non golf fans paying attention because of his style...It is good for the tour

They must be paying him well, that's all I'm saying :)

I know I'd need a lot of money to walk around on tv with that thing on my head ha ha.

His hat would look a lot cooler if he won a few tournaments.

    • Day 37, June 10.  Today was primarily WFH, so I had several practice sessions (indoors, off a mat, into the net).  At least one each of U, 9, and 6-iron full swings with the usual priority.   I also tried a few times a putting type stroke with my 4H, as something I should probably learn how to hit (and what it does), but the mechanical shot at home off a mat doesn't tell me much of what it's doing.  That's something I should probably try on a real green, not during a round until I've tried it.
    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
