That's absolutely hilarious!  I especially loved Rory's comment about only having to iron two outfits.     It's great to see that these guys can rib and poke each other with trash talking that's no different than any of us with our mates.    Except that they do it using social networking with many thousands of followers, probably sending it out from their private jets.    Or maybe they have people to send the tweets out for them.     OK, so maybe they're not exactly like us afterall........

Stuff like this is why I've always been a fan of Poults.

I wont say it is a disgrace, but I don't really care for this kind of stuff.  It is one thing to send private emails or text to each other, but making it public just seems a little bit too "look at me".  Better to be known for the quality of your wins than for the "wit" of your tweets,

But then again, what the hell do I know?

If you're waiting for the poster who would rather get a root canal than read Twitter banter between Rory McIlroy and Ian Poulter, you can check that off your list.

There was another one a while back where Poulter tweeted a big rant about people wearing steel spikes and how it fucks up the green and he missed a bunch of putts because of it. McIlroy tweeted back that he wears spikes all the time and that maybe if Poulter got his swing speed above 100mph he would wear spikes too!

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Well, I can't say that Poulter's play is backing up the bravado of his tweets. I think McIlroy would kill him in a head to head.

      Day 39: did top golf for an hour with the family. It was fun but also not really like real golf at all. Also did some mirror work - working on the backswing stuff mostly.

      Day 4, 1/2/26.  Played 18 today;  didn't get a chance to warm up (had I known the range was closed, I'd have hit balls at home first).  Played okay, 92 with three balls in the water.  It was raining for more than half the round and I didn't quite appreciate before today just how much I benefit from roll on both drives and approach shots.  I did not adapt well to this change until about hole 15, which is something I have to figure out.

      Day 459 - 2026-01-02 Had two guys on GEARS Hybrid, so I hopped on afterward (I'm going to do this a lot more often now). So… I've signed myself up for another month of backswing work in two ways: A little more extension of the trail elbow (got into the upper 90s) Less pelvis turn (low 50s).
