OH BOY. Lavender????????? I can deal with the rest.

people these days actually make sly comments about the color of a certain clothing article...? what exactly is wrong with lavender? is it not macho or american enough or something?

Yeah-some serious insecurity going on here or something. Purple (lavender included) is the color of royalty. And besides, it looks great.

Now we can't have this sport going all queer on us. it's just not the american way. we need big oversized polo shirts with big parachute pleated pants.

Yeah-we've got a tenuous hold on our man-cards, a purple shirt might cause us to lose our fully exempt status...

Maybe you guys are being serious or maybe you're not, but if I was on the European team I'd be on the ground laughing right now.

I can hear Pavin's big Sunday speech right now: "Okay boys, we're rolling out the lavender this morning. Those Euros won't know what hit 'em. Hey, don't run off there Dustin, I've saved the best for last - I got my old friends at Cleveland to set each of you up with custom made Cleveland Vas clubs - that's right - even your clubs will be lavender. We'll be unstoppable, just like I was at Shinnecock!! Tiger, what's so funny - and yes Phil, they come in lefty."

I think they look really smart. It's the poses and the physiques of the mannequins that make them look effeminate. They're actually really nice clothes.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Stop hating. Just because you can't pull an outfit off doesn't mean it's the clothing's fault.

I'm not a fan of the over/under style of the Sunday belt slack, but beyond that no complaints here. I like the lavender/black combination for Saturday and I'm pretty sure admitting so doesn't automatically make me a homosexual.. but what do I know?

I didn't know Jim Tressel was going to be playing practice rounds with the US though. Must've been a late captain's pick.

Not having Boo Weekly and Anthony Kim on the team let the designers go in a different direction.

it's a good look imo.

I am very very sorry if I offended anyone with my comment about lavender...I won't at this point tell you why lavender bothers me so much, and maybe some of you can really pull it off on the course, guess I should just shut up. But in my defense, I DID say I like the rest of the retro look! : ) My apologies.

    • Day 27 (7 Dec 25) - Got in a few swings with 9i and hard foam balls in backyard.  Setup weight fwd (rebuilt left foot really lets me feel the weight in a slightly painful way) - kept the backswing to around 9 o’clock focusing on contact and resulting divot pattern.  Like how the hard foam balls come off the face (almost like real balls in sound).  A good abbreviated session as I only able to hit about a dozen balls in the fading light. 
    • Day 117 12-7 A bit of chipping practice today. Full swing- hit some real balls to see where Im at. 
    • Not the part I was replying to: Handicaps did not go down much (like 0.14 on average IIRC?) when we went from 10/20*0.96 to 8/20. And a good chunk of that was from the +s.
    • I think he meant in the UK. The old system was completely different from the new one. 10/20 x 0.96 vs 8/20 would really only impact very low handicaps I think. The 0.96 serves to increase differentials for plus differentials, where 8/20 vs 10/20 works to lower differentials for all. I don't know many plus golfers who would be upset that their index got lower. A lot of really good players don't even really keep their handicaps up-to-date. They're much more interested in their WAGR rankings which get them entries to certain events.
    • Day 433 - 2025-12-07 Got some work in after Junior Elite before a night of sports (and the return of my wife!). Backswing work. Similar to what a lot of my juniors are doing.
