Was watching the father / son tournament this weekend when Fuzzy's daughter Gretchen tried to swing for the fences and missed.

Hard to believe that happened really. You can see her pull her head out of it way early though. That's embarrassing for a beginner on the local muni, much less on national television in a pro event.

Did anyone see Dufner's fail on the putting green this weekend? It was just as bad....

So according to @Fourputt , he never started play on the hole and even if it did it wasn't played in accordance with the rules, so he should mark down a birdie because he's like a +5, so… :-D:-D:-D:-D:-D

Bold move by dropping the ball and hitting it in mid-air with the putter head. Had he missed it would have just amplified the amount of fail in that video. He hit the ball when he didn't want to and then couldn't hit it when wanted to. Fortunately he seemed to strike it well

Yeah saw that on the replay last night, Fuzzy's reaction is pretty funny.  No problem, they still made birdie on the hole.

@iacas what Key do you think she was missing? :-P

That was actually my first thought also. lol!  Then that made me think of this (I watch a lot of kids movies these days, but I can't lie; I like em!) ...

I was thinking of the 0th Law of Thermodynamics: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeroth_law_of_thermodynamics. But lets go with the Kung Fu Panda thing. :-P

Methinks that somebody is dorky like me and just really likes the word "zeroth" ... because isn't this:

" The zeroth law of thermodynamics states that if two systems are each in thermal equilibrium with a third system, they are also in thermal equilibrium with each other."

... really just the transitive property? :beer:

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By billchao ·

      My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.

      Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By GolfLug ·

      No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death.

      Spark League at Severna Park Golf

      By Paloma ·

      Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area?

      I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
