The Golf Channel had it on.  Amazing how much the game has changed since then.  Tiger is a good 10 to 20 yards longer off the tee and at least a club longer with his irons.  One thing I noticed about his game was how much better his irons were, especially with distance control.

It was also fun to watch Hal Sutton strut that place.  The dude was hitting 3 irons into some of the par 4's and one of the par 3's.

Driver:  Callaway Diablo Octane 9.5*
3W:  Callaway GBB II 12.5*, 5W:  Callaway Diablo 18* Neutral
3H:  Callaway Razr X, 4H:  Callaway Razr X
5-PW:  Callaway X Tour
GW:  Callaway X Tour 54*, SW:  Callaway X Tour 58*
Putter:  Callaway ITrax, Scotty Cameron Studio Design 2, Ping Anser 4


I watched a little of it too - was funny seeing Hal swing an old TaylorMade Bubble Shaft Driver. For 2000, that was the shizz. (I believe the replay was the 2000 Players that Sutton won ("Be the right club toDAY") - 2001 was the 'Better than most' Tiger drain on 17 when he won)

Was also interesting how young Tiger looked back then.

My mistake.  I remember, watching the back nine of that one on Monday morning.  Sutton and Tiger didn't say a word to each other all day.  Is it me or has the Stadium course at Sawgrass gotten considerably longer since this tournament was played?

I watched that last night. Great dual. One thing that stood out for me was Tiger's shirt. Was only about 3 sizes too big. But that's the way they were worn then.


Greetings .... 1982 Players -- "Pete Dye will go for a swim today!" 2000 Players -- "Be the Right Club, Today!" 2001 Players -- "Better Than Most!" 2002 Players -- Craig Perks win .. Any expression besides what they could say on-air!! Thanx-A-Lot, Frank-0-Sport

    • Day 1: 2/26/2025: So, I'm starting over on this again.  My son brought home the mother of all flu bugs from school. It raged though our house and knocked me on my butt for about 3 days.  Now, that I think I'm clear of the death plague my son gave me. I was able to rise early this morning and get some nice mirror work in. I felt stiff like a board for the first few swings, but loosened up and was able to get at least 20 minutes of first robotic slow swings and then gradually more fluid swings.  My focus was on the timing and fluidity of my priority pieces. 
    • I use a MagSafe connector on my tripod. Occasionally I use those clips.
    • Working on some swing videos. What are you guys having the best luck with as far as devices used to record the swing?  I have a tripod with a magnet that I stick my phone on but it is somewhat of a pain because I have to remove the cover on my phone and when I pull it off the magnet the tripod head changes and moves position. I was thinking something more like an ipad maybe. On a different style tripod and maybe even set it up to mirror to a tv.
