I'm still trying to figure out why he thinks Colin Montgomerie should be in the field.

That Quiros chip from the rocks on 13 (?) was cool, but I don't think it was anywhere as dangerous as they were making it out to me on Masters.com. If he hits it short... he's right back where he was and he takes his lumps. That's not that bad.

I was thinking the same thing.

If he has a five-shot lead going into the back nine on Sunday, yes.

Until then, no.

it was pretty dangerous because if he hits it into the bank and it rolls back, then he's hitting 5 onto the green after taking a drop out of the creek.  2 putt and a double bogey wouldn't have been too good for the scorecard.

He pulled off a remarkable shot and you can tell he had zero margin for error because he BARELY got the ball up on top of the bank.

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

Yeah, that was ugly to listen to on the radio feed. A snowman is always painful.

    • I kind of like this interpretation especially if you think about it the unplayable rule would probably put you in a better spot.  using back on the line releief.  
    • I did not realize that, I was thinking a more traditional golf club.  
    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.
