Landing area on #16. The fairway bamks up to the right but it is very narrow and nobody will try to hit it up there. It's a short iron over the quarry to the hole, so they will most probably play shor

The ridiculous thing is not that Phil is flying back for his daughter's 8th grade graduation, it is that her school is even HAVING an 8th grade graduation.  Alas this is becoming far too common.

I dunno. T13 is still +3. Some players are moving. Most of them are backwards.

Neither Tiger nor Rory were able to post a lower round than Sergio Garcia, and he drove the ball out of bounds three times in a row on the same hole.

Given you couldn't even predict his second-round score, I don't take muck stock in that prediction.

Oh, Boom.

Justin Rose still in it, come on man!

I think you have to be inside 4 shots of the lead today, because there probably won't be a low score (like 66) out there tomorrow and someone of the leading group will at least get a round around par.

And you won't be right until Woods stops playing. So with that reasoning it's better not to make predictions, because they're in fact worthless.

I also predicted that he wouldn't win this week, so I'm 1/2.

I predict Woods, McIlroy & McDowell won't win this week. So I'm 3-for-3. Boom.

So Tiger said yesterday he was happy with his game??   Really?

Vonn looked smashing btw.   Who cares about golf if she's waiting for you to hole out at 18?

Lose the babe and 3/4 billion dollars and get hungry again? Is that the winning formula for Tiger? He did look more relaxed than ever before after today's round horsing around with McIlroy.     Has he lost something, the Tiger edge maybe? He's been in this game for 30 years. Look at other athletes who were pushed by a parent:  they long gone.

But you can't say that.   He's won 4 times this year, he's serious out there, he feels it.

      Are You a Fair Weather or All Weather Golfer?

      By mchepp ·

      When I lived in Oregon my friend had a rule. It could only be 2 of the following 3 items for us to play. If all 3 we’d skip.    1. Windy (20+) 2. Rainy (needs to be steady, rain in Oregon is pretty common) 3. Cold (less than a high of 50) This was a pretty solid rule.

      Day 74: Worked on priority piece, full swing for about an hour this evening after dinner. Really need to exaggerate “hitting to right field feel” more than I think to produce slight push draw ball flight.

      Cobra 3D Printed Irons

      By mchepp ·

      I searched around but didn’t see any other threads on this so I’ll put it here. I work in the laser industry and one of the applications has been additive manufacturing. The main market for the past 10 years has been SpaceX and the space industry and some medical applications. The new one I saw this week is 3D printing irons. Cobra and the company that they are using is marketing these irons pretty aggressively.  In talking with the folks in the booth at the trade show, the claim is that they can gain strength but reduce the weight to put it exactly where they want. The print of the iron is very cool. Mostly everything behind the face is a thin metal lattice and then in the heal and toe is a block of tungsten for weight.  I am old enough to remember the arguments about forged versus cast irons. I wonder if folks here will pay a bit more to get 3D printed irons.  They have a booth here where you can hit them but I hate lines and the line to do it is always long. I go again tomorrow, and if the line isn’t too long I’ll give it a try and report back.    Here are some pictures (I had some trouble uploading, I’ll try later)
