I was eager to get the opportunity to take a look at the leaderboard of the Northern Trust Open today but was stunned to see that Bubba shot 40/37 in today's opening round. Bogeyed number 1 and then 5,6,7,8!  I can't remember the last time I saw a pro bogey 4 in a row.

Anyone else remember a pro bogeying 4 in a row?

I heard that he was trying to keep up with Rickie Fowler in his latest stunt.

I didn't remember that one. But, it is good to see that the pros are human. They shoot some lousy golf every now and then. Of course, they often knock out 3 birdies in a row...haven't done that yet. I've had two in a row and then usually bogey trying for number the third one.

I'm trying to remember but has Bubba played any good since he won the Masters? I don't really remember him contending anything after that?

Did you happen to watch the U.S. Ryder Cup team on Sunday afternoon this year?

j/k of course; they didn't bogey 4 in a row (that I can remember) but several looked very amateurish coming down the stretch.

Bubba has had a few hiccups this season.  He had to withdrawal from Torrey Pines due to flu like symptoms.  I'm sure he will get it going again, but agree that it is quite interesting to see a guy with his talent struggle.  Today he looked lost.

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      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.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      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.
