The LD champion is a string bean.

The LD champion isn't a golfer. He is a long driver. When's the last time the LD guy had to walk 72 holes of varying terrain in trying conditions while under intense mental scrutiny the entire time, or had to hit a ball out of incredibly thick rough, etc.? Hasn't happened yet.

Fitness isn't just about speed.

Yea your right. My remark had nothing to do with those concerns. My point was in reference to the previous poster stating he was on roids. The man obviously strenghtened his upper body and core, whether it was due to roids isnt the issue. My comment was that if he were to be juicing for distance simply look at the LD player.

LD players are super flexible, have you seen how much shoulder turn jamie sladowski(sorry if I spelled it wrong) gets?

And I doubt that's a very consistent swing either.

He wouldn't jeopardize his career for the sake of a sponsorship deal with nike.

If he did, he is downright foolish. I dont see why he would need it, unless he thought his strength pre roids wasnt going to help him get to the next level....even if he did do it,,what the hell would it do for him? The LD champion is a string bean.

I agree, it would have been foolish. But tiger has recently shown he doesn't always make the best decisions.

What would it do for him? Like i said, some kinds of steroids and HGH help rebuild ligaments and tissues. Tiger was being treated for torn ligaments in his knee by galea, who provided other athletes with HGH. All i am saying is it is a real possibility Dr. Galea gave him HGH as well as the plasma treatment to heal his knee.

LOL he got bigger because he is narrcacistic and wants to pull hot chicks. The guy is upset because his calfs are too small....his calfs...too small...lmao it had nothing to do with golf fellas as he was more dominant and longer when skinny. And to the idea that he was trying to prevent injury well if you add weight to a frame with small bones like he clearly has then you are causing more damage, not preventing it. Notice his injuries became prevalent around the same time.

    • I did not realize that, I was thinking a more traditional golf club.  
    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.     
    • I get trying to limit relief to the fairway, but how many roots do you typically find in the fairway? Our local rule allows for relief from roots & rocks anywhere on the course (that is in play). My home course has quite a few 100 year old oaks that separate the fairways. Lift and move the ball no closer to the hole. None of us want to damage clubs.
