You carry a 64 deg wedge too, I see. Hmmm. 21hcp.....Hmmm. indeed. indeed.

Golf is difficult enough without adding the Russian Roulette factor, nibs my man!

Ambition + desire + gambling mentality + clubs which are hard for high handicappers to use = wtf happened to my round socrecards.....

Lord help ya!

Perhaps I should qualify, I have no intention of actually taking these out on the course - I'll stick to my fitted X-18s for that. This is more out of curiosity; I'll probably just take the 7 iron to the range and see what it's like. I've never hit that kind of club.

    • Of course it is. If you have that drought in major wins, coming so close, its more pressure than anticipation. Pressure = Relief, Anticipation = Celebration. Don't get me wrong, he celebrated after the fact. The initial response is 100% relief. Which is totally fine.  Yep, golf is hard. He made a poor swing on 15. He was probably taking dead-aim to get a birdie and pushed it. He probably should have played the slope of the green more. Guess what, he then made way more good shots than bad ones coming in to clinch the win.  6-FT from the pin, he has a 74% make from that range.  PGA Tour players only make 95% of their putts from like just shy of 4-FT. PGA Tour average from 4-FT is 92%. Everyone things PGA Tour players make more putts than they do. 
    • There’s a whole bunch of one time winners, but they will always be winners.
    • I respectfully disagree. He's the only guy in the last 59 years to complete the career Grand Slam who's not named Tiger Woods. It's a very small club and he's in it. Once you are in the club, you are in the club. He can retire right now and he's a Hall of Famer.  He's tied with Brooks Koepka for the third most major wins among active players. (And that's only if you count Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson as "active" players.)  Everyone knows winning the Masters is difficult and repeating at the Masters is really REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY difficult.   
    • To wax a little poetry if I may; it's not how we fall but how we rise after a fall. He always struck to me as a very resilient fella. Surviving the odds including the preening eyes of an army of those who 'expertly' write others off maybe an even higher quality in my book. Hence I refrain from using 'never' as an opinion.  I would have said the same thing about him had he not won this year.  
    • Count me in for Saturday at Reserve Run. I'll be there.
