Why doesn't he play more? I guess the main reason would be he doesn't have to. He can set his schedule however he sees fit, and what obviously fits him is his current level. He probably feels more events would not be good for his game.

There was another pretty good player who only played 18-22 events a year. Jack Nicklaus.

I watch more golf when he's playing, that's for sure.

Guess he has some sort of recipe for success by playing certain events - can't complain with his results 75 PGA wins (or is he at 76?).

But it seems to me w/ his game right now, more events to get his game in gear, the better.

I've gone to several tournaments in person (Germany, Augusta, TPC JAX, Bayhill), and I like when TW is there - because it frees up a lot of the other golfers from having huge groups  - I like to follow the other guys and don't like fighting crowds.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
