Name one or more TST members that you have never played golf with before and mention why you think it would be fun to play a round of golf with them and why.  Make it funny, fun or serious .

I am going to say Ernest Jones and Stretch.  EJ because I think he would keep things from being too "serious", and he gets a dry sense of humor, and Stretch, because I never have seen a mountain hit a ball in person before.

Golfingdad Iacas Zipazoid BPLewis Jamo Picking 5 was hard. Edit, I was supposed to pick 3, wasn't I? Screw it, I stick by my decision, 2 threesomes.

Interesting fact, Hoser is an old hockey term. Back in the day the team that lost had to hose down the sheet of ice (pre-zamboni era) and hence the term Hoser was born. Now you know.

My foursome would Golfingdad, Beachcomber and Cipher. These guys are all better than me so I would learn a lot and I think it would be a very low pressure, comfortable foursome. We would have lots of laughs then beers and BBQ after. Sadly, I live pretty far from you cats so I don't see it happening anytime soon. GREAT idea for a thread.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

GREAT idea for a thread.

Nice choices, all fellow evo students as well.  Those two Cali cats would be pretty cool to play a round of golf with as well.

That would be EPIC. But no BBQ afterwards methinks...

I would go with Golfingdad and Fourputt.  I also would really like to play golf with ggiese.  But, alas, he is not available for slumming with the likes of me.

How about predictions?  I think the top five mentions will round out like this:

  1. golfingdad
  2. beachcomber
  3. iacas
  4. ernest jones.
  5. mvmac

Fortunately, I've had the chance to play with quite a few members already, and I'm adding bplewis24 to list in a couple of weeks .. So not counting all of them, there are still several I would love to play with. If I have to pick only 3 I think I'm picking Ernest and fourputt, and were meeting David in Florida for a round at sawgrass or bay hill or some nice place like that. We can talk golf swing, or even rules .,, but politics is off limits!!! :)

Probably pretty accurate.  But hopefully it is not just a popularity contest.  Maybe people can think out of the box a bit?

Yeah David would be a good choice too. I gotta admit I get a little jealous when I read through your so-cal golfing threads.

Sounds like a blast!

I think my fourth would be Mr. Desmond. That would be cool as well, because any democrat living in Texas has my respect!

Or maybe even Fourputt, I promise not to let "one" stand leg from my bag touch the green.

Unfortunately more douche than bag, which can lead to things getting a little...damp.

I was just going to say you and me versus Jamo and the sadly absent delav. They'd have to give us a few shots, though!

My back up group may be Rolopolo, Gilberg and his Uncle (not legally) . Doubt we would be finished in under 4.5 hours though....

      PGA Tour Makes Sweeping Changes Starting in 2028

      By iacas · Posted

      The highlights as I see them: Championship and Challenger Series The creation of the PGA Tour and the PGB Tour, in the words of Joel Dahmen a few years ago. They're calling them the Championship Series (23-24 events) and the Challenger Series (20+ events). Both run February to August. They feel this will achieve three things: increasing the consistency and quality of fields across the season creating a clear system for players to earn and retain status and delivering a more structured and competitive experience for fans and partners—all in an effort to strengthen meritocracy. Championship Series Structure and Eligibility The 23-24 events includes the Players, majors, season-ending events, and the Presidents Cup and Ryder Cup. These will be 72-hole events with a 36-hole cut to the top 65 and ties and purses of $20M+. 120 players without an alternate list. 90 players (roughly) from the previous year and 20 players promoted from the Challenger Series. Full eligibility will be finalized later this year. Sites (cities) to be finalized soon, but 10 of the 15 courses have already been determined. Postseason: includes retention and relegation and concludes with match play. The Tour Championship will also be played across a rotation of prestigious courses. Challenger Series Structure and Eligibility 20+ events. Running concurrently. Will feature players fighting their way back to the Championship Series or players graduating and on the upswing from the Korn Ferry Tour. Many of these events will be current PGA Tour courses. About 7 of the Challenger Series events will be during off weeks for the Championship Series with elevated purses and visibility. Purses of at least $4M, with cuts similar to the Champ series. 144 player fields. Competitive Fields for Both Series Players will be eligible for only one series at a time: Championship Series Players are not eligible for Challenger Series events. Championship Series members will have a known schedule with all events having the same eligibility. Players and Majors will have their own eligibility criteria. Championship Series players don't have to play all events. This begs the question about, say, the Canadian Open, and other "home-town" events that players might want to play, even if they're Challenger Series events. Will releases be granted? Promotion and Relegation At least 90 players will be retained in the Championship Series, and 20 players will be promoted from the Challenger Series each year. Battlefield promotion for two-time winners from the Challenger Series. Players relegated from the Championship Series will have a "last chance" opportunity to retain status, or will go to the Challenger Series. Criteria will be finalized before the start of the 2027 season. Points System New points system (not FedExCup points). Separate points systems for the Championship and Challenger Series. Elevated points in the Challenger Series for off-weeks on the Championship Series. More details tk. Elevated International Events in the Fall The fall schedule will include a limited series of elevated international events with top players from the Championship Series, with the intent to deliver in partnership with the DP World Tour as part of the Strategic Alliance. Last Chance Series The Tour will develop a “last chance” series of 4-6 events in the fall, with a limited number of spots on the Championship Series available for top finishers. Eligibility will include players relegated from the Championship Series, Challenger Series players, and other categories to be determined. Q-School continues, as do the Korn Ferry Tour and PGA Tour Latinoamerica. Also, Brian Rolapp is the new commissioner as of January 1, 2027.

      My Swing (Gestate0560)

      By iacas · Posted

      Yes, because you have lifted to like 120° without bending the left elbow. So when you turn and the left elbow bends… it bends in such a way that you then lower your left humerus and pull the club around you.
