Agree - I don't get all the negativity ... to me it seems like just a funny way to root for your favorite golfer.    Need to open a window - getting kind of stuffy in here ...

It's cultural I'm sure.

The game was invented in Scotland. There's likely more of a reverence over there. Their boorish louts attend soccer games.

Our boorish louts used to only attend football games but there's a spillover that has occurred in the past 10 or so years to PGA Tour events.

I get more annoyed when I hear someone say "Great shot XXXXX!" and the ball is either terribly wide or in a bunker or something, lol.

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

I think it was Ben Hogan who once told a playing partner after sayin great shot, "Unless you know what I was intending to do with that shot, don't tell me it was great".

    • I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.
    • Day 151 1-11 flow work today. I've been doing all pause work, so Inwanted to get some rhythm going. Recorded.
    • a) No b) This MLR says: I doubt the MLR is going to affect their weekly league games, in other words.
    • So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands  
    • Original definition use to or still is how far offline you hit it. It might be better to think of it as consistency in retaining favorable launch conditions to optimize distance.   That heat map showed a gigantic 0-3% loss in ball speed. That is absurd. The true 100% sweet spot is tiny for all clubs. Good luck telling the difference if the sweet spot is under 3% in a sizable area. Especially considering variation in launch angle, spin, and outdoor weather.
