I just love the most recent caddie episode. Idk why, but he just kept referencing how the caddies were taking the balls out of the players' sacks. I couldn't help but chuckle

Feherty is awesome.  He comes up with the most off the wall things to say, and while some of them are so inappropriate it's ok because it's Feherty... It's like he can get away with it just because it's him.

He comes out with some pretty outlandish things, and yet McCord was the one who was banned from Augusta for something about saying the greens were as smooth as a fresh brazilan wax or something wasn't he?

I really enjoy Feherty's personality. He talks with the joyful irreverence of a man that has cheated death a few times.

I think the most amazing part about Feherty is how he thinks up all of those analogies. I'm sure some are things he's heard growing up, and some are things he's hears, but how exactly does one think to compare Furyk's swing to an octopus falling out of a tree?

Years of alcohol abuse probably created all sorts of bizarre images in his mind!

Yes...while I normally think McCord tries too hard to be funny, I thought that comment was humorous.  Per Sports Illustrated:

"He said the putting surfaces were so slick because 'they don't cut the greens here at Augusta , they use bikini wax.'"

Augusta may be a great course but their officials are a bunch of whiny brats IMO.

agreed. I'm young (only 21) and I think the PGA needs to chill out on a lot of things in regard to mannerisms. Obviously golf is a gentlemans game and should stay that way, but they were all up in a tizzy about Fowler having his hat backwards at that one press conference. It's like really? Cmon

That's because McCord is a clown, and Feherty is a wit. One acts when the other reacts. One is Curly Howard, and the other is Groucho Marx.

Curly Howard was way better than McCord!!  Feherty is just a natural wit.  On the show where he went to N. Ireland, his parent were on.  They had the wit as well, so it runs in the family.

Thanks Erik, I needed a good laugh this morning.  A couple of those I'd seen before, but most were new.  I almost fell out of my chair at the Faldo comment.

Whenever I read his one liners, I can't help but hear is Irish Voice.  He is absolutely stellar!  I love him!

    • God I hate when golf can’t give me n+1 day of success. Drives me up the wall when my body is, FU! Im like, ok let’s check the vid. Yep too much turn, arms getting behind me. Ok, I work on that. Get the feel back for a shorter swing. Confirm with video. Then going back to arms down stuff.  Arms down, nope it’s hands out towards the ball. Oh, you get arms down better. Guess what, you don’t get to rotate and you hit 6 inches behind the ball. Yay!  Maybe I should have walked off the range and not wasted my time. I wish there was a body alert system when it’s going to a SOB for the day. 😭 OK rant over, I’ll be back at this tomorrow.

    • I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.      
    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
