The target looks like a tiny dot from the balcony.

Lee Westwood is pretty amazing. 7 iron? I was thinking that they would need to use a shorter club at 100 yards up and 235 out.

How many shots would it take you to even hit the barge? I think it would take me many a large bucket, if at all. :-D

Wimps. I'd have gamed a sand wedge there and taken a little off it. Hit it in the dime sized brown spot with a low spinner. Smooth as glass with my Ping Eye2.

(That's from memory so I'm sure I didn't get anything quite right…)

This went over my head. Methinks there's a thread or two I didn't read I need to get this. I generally avoid, how do I put this delicately, CRACKPOT-ish threads.

Ping Eye2 are the hottest sticks on the market, total jewels.  Mine pretty much tear through trees and the like, GIR is up to 84%.  If you don't bag Pings you're a total 'mo.

Starts off a little slow but gets better and better. Classic thread gone full-retard.

Enjoy.

Thanks. I think. :-) BTW, I own a set of PE2s black dot. They're not bad, but I prefer my Titleists. IMHO, the hype is not commensurate with the performance.

I "bag" the PING Eye2(0). Does that count? :-D

The extra 0 takes away from my GIR though, with 8.4% GIR

I just read through that whole thread... classic. I will say that I have a set of Ping eye 2s in the garage and they are absolutely the ugliest irons I've ever seen or played. Period.

I have to ask the obvious question, was that really iacas?

Was what me? Was I also Famous Davis? No. I've only ever been iacas.

      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.
