All I said was that I found it funny he went so far with the celebration, I said nothing about wanting him to be like a robot. Even Jeff Overton starting laughing at the celebration at the end of that clip.

Agreed if I remember well that eagle was to go from 2 to 1 down... Compare this with the G-Mac celebration @ the 16th and you will see why... (imho)

Exactly. He realised that both he and Bubba had gone a little bit too far and the nervous giggle at the end of the clip proves that.

We don't want robots on the course, nor do we want professionals acting like drunken sorority kids.

Well we sure do apparently (those of us on this side of the pond).

I don't care what Overton does. He's a vanilla person playing a vanilla sport. The only things that really stood out to me were NBC's witch hunt over Sun Mountain's rain suits, and the ridiculous clothing the US team was forced to wear. Kudos to Tiger for having the brains to wear rain pants.

You can't tell me you weren't at least trying to imply that there was something wrong with it. You did call him "a plank" after all.

Ah but you see over this side of the pond, calling somebody something as silly as a plank is a form of endearment. Stop looking for something that isn't there.

If you say so. And I'm not looking for anything, merely disagreed with your opinion.

Oh so it wasn't a golfer that publicly stated it at all....it was a forum poster that posted it on a forum discussion. Hardly the same thing, Grumpy-ter?

I suppose I could be under the false assumption that Shorty is a golfer but I'm gonna go with it is more likely that my assumption that you assumed I was quoting a Professional golfer is the right assumption (that's a mouthful). Is there a reason to excuse such a statement just because it was said on a forum by someone who is not a professional golfer? I don't see it that way.

I tried to ignored your comment before, but it would be reasonable to ridicule an adult who believes in Santa and the Easter Bunny as well, so you'd probably be better off keeping your moralistic nonsense to yourself, lest you expose yourself even more. You brought it up, not me. If you want to believe in things that aren't true, fine. But don't expect people to take you seriously.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

    • First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.
    • Day 118 - Spent some time working on the full swing. Need to film some swings for Evolvr tomorrow. 
    • playing with cleveland hybrid irons have friends that use hybrids anyone using hybrid irons or hybrids would appreciate fwwdback
    • I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory. 
    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
