If you don't like the 16th at FBR Pebble Beach should put you in the Hospital after 18 holes of having funny antics.

Absolutely love it. Other tournaments should try and replicate this type of environemnt. Not only does it look like a ton of fun, it's a great way to get more non-traditional fans out to add some fun to the crowds.

Don't think it's a good idea for the LPGA though...can you imagine the cat calls when the likes of Natalie, Cristie and Grace walked out to the tee.

I think it is a good deal for that tourney. Lots of fans = lots of money for charity=lots of sponsors with deep pockets= good for the game. I dont think it would be good for like the majors, but a few more venues wouldn't hurt. The guys that put on the tourney also do a great job of keeping it fun and not letting the fans get to out of hand. I like the pros that have fun with the crowd and play up to it. Even Tiger when he hit his hole in one there was pumping up the crowd and letting them enjoy it.

it is isolated to that hole at that tournament. i think others will attempt to export it to other holes at other venues, but i don't think it will take anywhere else. i think it is a phenomenum that is unique to scottsdale and as long as that's the case, and it doesn't start catching on elsewhere, i don't have a problem with it.

in the bag:
driver-titleist D2 10.5* w/aldila nv shaft
3-adams speedline fast 10 w/aldila shaft
hybrid-titleist 585 17* w/aldila shaft
irons-titleist 735cm w/ttdg s-300 shafts

wedges-cleveland 588, 53* and 60* w/ttdg shafts

putter-scotty circa 62 #1, gun metal finish

    • Hi @RetiredOldMan!  I am glad to see you are still playing and having good scores.  I hope that when I am 79, I am not only able to play, but still able to produce as good scores as you have been doing.   I look forward to hearing more of your success and your opinion of the senior flex shafts.
    • Hello Golfing Buddies, It has been awhile since I posted but I am the Retired Old Man that asked for advice because I suffered two "T.I.A.'s about switching from playing right handed to playing left handed.  I purchased a Callaway Edge Left handed golf clubs. I changed the grips to oversize grips.  Well, two weeks ago and still at 79 years old, I shot a 44 and 47 on a small course in my hometown.  I am currently changing my shafts from regular flex to Senior flex.  So, you can see' it can be done! So, you other old timers; get with the program! Blessings to all of you. Retired Old Man (Terry Warner)

    • Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.
