Today's tacky comes from Roger Maltbie circa 1976 when he won at Muirfield Village.

Wow. He auditioning for Office Space? I give that an 8.

Although, maybe I shouldn't say anything since I love the white belt (in general, not in the above pic obviously).

I think if you're gonna go with the tie, you gotta do it old school, like Costner here:

But how about this clown:

Adam Scott's rating = zero. solid white pants with solid blue top with solid white hat= boring Popsicle look

Actually, that is not horrible at all...I give you a tacky rating of 3.5 plus .5 for purple for a total of 4. Check out these pants, they look like they were cut from a Persian Rug.

Definitely in the 8.5 range especially because of the short shorts.

Kid Rock!

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
