I like flat briimmed hats. And I don't think anyone looks stuypoid wearing them. Looks better than any visor. And hats with peaks so bent the ends nearly touch.

Nike released some flat brims that are really nice. I mainly wear baseball caps which have a flatter/wider brim.

Times be a changin'. Keep up or get left behind.

I'm stuck at 3rd again. But I'm probably gonna tumble down tomorrow since I have 2 of 4 divisions without a pick in the quarters.

I will NEVER wear a flat brim hat...I will stop wearing hats and rock the Rock! Get it? And I never said visors were cool. Just a little bend...you aren't a rapper so don't act like it. You play golf for god sake....there is nothing urban about it. Just curious...how old are you? I hope you aren't over 30. If so, Do you wear wristbands for no apparent reason as well?

I HATE flat brimmed hats, they look absolutely ridiculous.  Not surprised PUMA took the flat brim route with their hats, they have always catered to a uh...certain crowd.  Golf and Fowler have made the brand "classier" and more fashionable.

I like Fowler but he looks like a confused white rapper and porn star between the hats and silly mustache.

Nah, Erik just likes to bust my chops about using those "funky" looking irons.

Haha, yeah I'm actually a year younger than Mahan

I agree I think it looks terrible, kinda silly.  Does that mean I'm getting old when I don't "get" stuff like that?

Nah. Even I hate turquoise and flat-brims. ;-)

Yeah, some of these guys look like the kids you see driving around in their dads Mercedes leaning back in their seats blasting some terrible lil Wayne song thinking they are from the hood. Except when someone from the hood pulls up next to them, the hat flips around straight, they sit up in their seats, turn down the beats and lock the doors! We call them Trust fund thugs! It's like that scene in the movie office space. There are also trust fund hippies...see plenty of those at Dave Matthews shows. They Haven't showered for a week and have dread locks but drove to the show in daddy's range rover. All are equally pathetic

In contribution to Mahan's headwear discussion; considering the quantity of SPF 300 he or someone else triple coated onto his face and neck, he should switch from flat brim to cricket hat. I'd like to see more cricket hats on tour--they might look odd, but lots of space for advertisements and promote extensor action (don't want to hit your hat at the top and transition) PING has a goofy bucket hat, but couldn't find a proper cricket hat by PING.

I'm tied for second (Ho, S)

Now I meant to type in 20, not 2 for the tiebreaker as I rushed selected my picks. Hey, I guess someone in the final could possibly get a stomach bug though :-)

Had I known that the upset rate was around 50%, I would have picked more upsets.

My experience from football pools is *not* to use your "knowledge" and just pick blindly.

    • Day 314 - Putting some things together. Better grip/setup, fuller backswing, better finishing position. Filmed some swings, happy with the progress. 
    • Day 130: did a stack session. 
    • Day 206 (24 Nov 24)  - An easy session with the 54deg wedge and hard foam balls / one simple goal - distance control thru backswing length while not decelerating.  Had a playing partner comment they noticed me decelerating on a couple short wedge shots in last round.  Hit from distances from close to 40yds down to 20. 
    • Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!
    • Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
