Sorry for your pain. How do you suggest the organizers arrange for the people you like to win and people you don't like to lose? Maybe some sort of American Idol setup where there's an online vote and

Agreed.  I filled it out like I fill out my ncaa brackets.

"Oh, I've heard of them, they must be good"

"I think I saw their coach at Del Taco in Vegas, I'm picking them!"

"They have cool uniforms."  :)

EDIT:  I'm more of an idiot than Erik because it took me forever to find my picks again.  Anyways, here they are ... http://sweeps.golfweek.com/bracket.asp?ID=7&Bracket;=25967

I am in. A few years ago I picked all the teams in the final four and had the finals and eventual winner all right. I said after doing that, I would never do a bracket again because I could never top it. I don't think I will do as well with this, but we'll see.

Well, I'm even dumber because I actually try to think about it, whose hot, checking stats, etc.

And then I'm dead wrong anyway.

I've got Oousty over Poults in the final.

Damn, it has my actual name next to my bracket. Oh well. I'm J.Constantine in the group.

Jamo, I actually hope your final four prediction comes true. Tiger over Rory would be epic.

What is the deal with you talking about getting Trues? I'm not making the connection.  I'm confused.

      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.
