Anyone who bothers to endure the early rounds of the AT&T; will find plenty of ugly swings along with the antics of celebrity golf buffons.

Bury me with a golf glove in my pocket - just in case!

I will definately be "enduring" the early rounds... I love watching the Pro Ams. I used to volunteer at the Pebble Beach Pro Am while I was stationed in Monterey - good times. Good times.


I have to agree with Ogg... Ernie Els has such a smooth effortless swing - if I could emulate one pro's swing, it would be his.

I lived in Monterey for 14 years and the corp. I worked for was a sponsor of the AT&T; so I worked the ropes a lot of times. The fact that I was becoming very enthusiastic about golf at the time aided my distaste for the way celebrities treat the event and disrespect the game.

At the same tiime, I know that's why they are there and how much money they bring in, so I should probably temper my comments a bit. It's like anything alse; a handful of jerks (Bill Murray, Kevin James stand out) can ruin it for many.

Beautiful swings: Adam Scott, CHIII and Jason Gore.
Rivaling Barkley for horror is the obese slob Chris Berman who not only butchers a golf course, but makes an absolute mockery of the time he spends in the booth at the US Open by way of his ESPN contract.

best - gotta be tiger. he can hit it any way you want it. low, high, cut, draw - his swing allows him to produce whatever result is needed.

beautiful - fred funk. i love watching him play. he's got such great balance and tempo. really effortless, and it's a compact, controlled move.

ugly - alan doyle. no points for style, almost painful to watch. but the man can golf his ass off, so i give him respect where it due.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By StuM ·

      Can't brag about a 50 last night but it was the best round of my season (4 rounds of 9 holes) so I am not as upset as I could be.  One thing I am noticed is that I got a little more confident in my long hybrids and I attempted a couple longer shots that typically I would just lay up and those holes were a big part of the lower score.  Not every shot was great but good enough that they helped.  I even shot par on a Par 5 after taking a drop.  On that hole I would usually lay-up to @ 100 yards and often miss the green altogether with my 3rd shot (or worse chunk my approach and put it in the waste area).  Yesterday I went for it from @ 200 yards out with wind in my face and landed in the waste area short of the green.  My drop left @ 40 yards in and I stuck it to 3 feet for my par putt.  If I had laid up I would have avoided the penalty stroke but likely would not have been on the green in regulation and may still have been working for par.  By going for it I gave myself a chance at birdie and still saved par. I do not plan on being crazy aggressive but I think I tend to be too conservative at times so I will "go for it" a little more often going forward.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 14 (15 May 24) - Worked with the SW in the backyard, short pitches from 10yds up to 30yds.   Focused on ball placement in stance - ball back, ball forward, ball center.  Afterwards moved to inside the shop to work on putting pace on the rug - putting one way gives about an 8' putt, going the other a 6' before bumping onto the adjacent rug.  Focused there on the line - picking a target point about 18"-24" out and making sure the ball rolls through that point.

      When someone is trying to validate their choice, statements concluding with "right" are often the MO.  Too bad he thinks he has to keep defending his decision, just do like guys like DJ and HVIII - take the money, play the tourneys and keep quiet.

      Scottie & Rory on Wedge Game

      By saevel25 ·

      I liked Rory talking about keeping it shallow. I think a lot of people imagine steep as really steep. Trackman has a PW attack angle at 5 degrees. Pitch shots you probably want less than 5-degrees.  Here is 5 degrees, the dashed line. It isn't much at all.  People probably need to feel like the club is stupidly shallow if they hit it really steep.  Some good tidbits of information though.
