Keegan is the top on my list for sure, followed by Bubba.

I actually switch channels when Keegan is about to hit, can't stand that freakish routine. It was funny at first, but it just became downright annoying.

I can't really dislike Fowler, but I don't like how the media wants to make him the next best thing without winning much.

Well then i guess everyone's a hypocrite because I sure don't hear anyone thanking their swing coach for missed cuts either.  And no I don't think god cares at all, and they probably don't either, rat

Not really.  Bob Rotella was one of my examples and he's certainly not a swing or putting instructor, he's a psychologist.  If I believe that sessions with him help me think straight, how is that any

I like Fowler, but I agree about the hype. I know when Tiger first came on Tour with the huge Nike contract, a lot of people were very skeptical. But he delivered very quickly on the hype. Rickie just hasn't done much to justify the kind of image he has in the media.

This is an understatement to say the least, one of the biggest names on tour with 1 win ever... I like how he attracts kids to the game, I like how he worked with cobra to bring some "amp" back to the brand, he seems like a good guy, but when people were upset he didn't make the Ryder Cup last year, I was like "why would he?" With that said, hopefully he wins something this year. (might want to avoid matches with Woods if he wants to stand a chance)

Wait...I'm an idiot. Typed a reply and then realized you were talking about Fowler, not Rory.  I really need to learn to read.

The more I hear about Vijay the more I'm skeptical about him.  I was already on the fence but the way he handled the whole Deer Spray thing really turned me away.

I was more disappointed to hear that he bought $8000 worth of "miracle" (i.e. garbage) products.

I could have done a lot with $8000.  Hate to see suckers throw away cash.

I used to dislike Keegan, but after the whole 'cheat' fiasco and hearing a few interviews with him, he seems like a good guy. Also I assume the Poulter hate is from US readers ;) we have to like him in Europe, he has pretty much won the Ryder cup single handedly.

What's with the racial comment?

Don't have much use for guys that hit into the group in front of them either

Nice positive thread! NOT

LOL, having said that, Bubba talking about Bubba in the third person and Bubba golf is mildly irritating to say the least

Don't understand the hate for Sabatini, he always brings a smile to my face....

But that's because the name reminds me of Gabbi.

For me it is Bubba, I have to agree how annoying Bubba this and Bubba that, Bubba golf!

I know that he won the green jacket, he can hit the ball a mile but i do not see much more then that.

IMO of course.

I think I'd be rude if I were a pro, stuff gets old after a while. Fans are so demanding and want you to jump through hoops. People never can put them selfs in the shoes of others.

I have to say I'm not a fan of Fowlers getup like y'all mentioned, but at the same time he's entitled to wear what he wants. He seems like a decent guy, so I can't really hate him despite how he underachieves. He maybe be flamboyant but at least he's not Dennis Rodman. It's all about Vijay, unprofessional and no class.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By GolfLug · Posted

      I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By iacas · Posted

      Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By iacas · Posted

      No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry
