It was impressive.

He still has the great recovery shots, but not the basic shots. Kinda weird

How many bunkers has Byron Bell had to rake now?

Yep - I've played (and I'm sure everyone else has) like that a LOT of times but in reverse: flushing 2 and 3-irons and then duffing 9-irons and PWs...

A lot and I'd be asking for a bonus even with Tiger missing the cut because his arm has got to be sore.

Yes that's my game: 285 drive down the center of a narrow fairway with water on one side and O.B. on the other. Then chunk a short iron into a bunker.

Woods/Hybrids: Cobra AMP 3W and 3 HY

Irons: Cobra AMP 4-GW

Wedges: Callaway Forged Copper 56* and 60*

Ball: Bridgestone B330-RX and Srixon Z-Star

Whichever announcer said it..I agree with them..Tiger needs to just keep playing.  His old schedule when he was in form just won't work right now.  You can't expect to come back to your old self after such long layoffs by playing once every month.

He just needs to finish out the year playing in any events he can get in and get his natural rhythm back.

My philosophy on golf "We're not doing rocket science, here."

I don't know, I think Tiger is struggling mentally and it affects his game a lot more than anything else.  Before the scandal, everything was almost perfect for him.  He is just not confident and not a happy person right now.  He needs to get over it to be competitive again.

Actually, I hadn't really thought about the fact that Kaymer missed the cut at 2 Majors this season.  People were wondering how many months he'd been #1 a year ago ... there should be a rule about changing your swing within months of winning a major.

I've always liked Tiger as a golfer, but not so much as a person, so I was kind of surprised I found myself feeling bad for him today.  The guy looks lost, and if he could I think he would have just walked off the course and called it a day after his fat putt or sand wedge into the water.  I'm sure he had days like this coming up to his pro level, but I've never seen him struggle as much as he has these last two days.  It appears he's lost that mental edge and until he regains that I think he's going to struggle.

I was Following Rickey Dustin and Sergio on the 12th hole, and it was crazy when Ricky sank the putt. Right after that, he went straight to the porta potty. LOL

Looked like Woods was trying to take a divot with his putter or something... I know he's compressing the ball better now, I just didn't think he was doing it with his putter too. :-P

      Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out.

      Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though.

      Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By iacas ·

      FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By pganapathy ·

      I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
