Where does this expression come from?  What does it reference? It's something I hear a lot lately, so - just wondering.

Look at some of the golf courses on TV when the PGA is playing, they cut the fairways in strips, striped it means you hit it in one of the strips.

I'm trying to remember exactly but I think the term actually originated by hitting the middle stripe down a fairway.  I've seen the explanation before but can't find it again.

My philosophy on golf "We're not doing rocket science, here."

      New Version of Flatso Ultra

      By joshiemac25 ·

      Long time user of the Flatso Ultra since it came out in 2013. Went to use it for the first round of the year and was dirty, so gave it a good cleaning and think I am going to need to replace it. I don't have anywhere around me that has the new varieties of the Flatso lines, but what would be the current closest in their line to the Original Flatso Ultra?

      Erik (Me) on Mike Carroll's Fit for Golf Podcast

      Yeah, that's… not gonna happen. Not any time soon. 😉 I talk quickly. And… a lot of podcast listeners listen on 1.5x or something. So, maybe they slow down the podcasts I'm on a little bit. 😄

      Older vs Current Putter Weight Differences

      By iacas ·

      I don't really agree with that. Nor that. The commonality among the game's best putters (not 100%, as I'm in that group 😄) is that they generally use lighter putters. The science is that they have more fine-grained control over the speed.
