Bubba put on a show today!! Love it when he's on.

Anyone else think Gary Woodland seems like and absolute d**k? On that short par 4  he chipped it to 3 feet, Bubba still had to chip on and Woodland wouldn't mark his ball even though it was right in Bubba's line. How some people feel and big Phil, I'm starting to feel that way about Woodland. Reminds me of a spoiled jock in high school.

Saw Bubba do the same thing to Phil last week. Phil had a short putt to putt out, and was going to when Bubba walked up to his ball and to play it, Phil stopped, mid way to setting up, and then marked his ball, he clearly wanted to finish and get out the way.

It was the type of putt that most would finish out.

The other player left his ball there as well on the other side of the pin .Considering the difficulty of the shot, and the possibility that Bubba"s ball could run across and off the other side of the green, I would imagine that Bubba didn't mind that the balls were left there. If he didn't want it there, couldn't he have asked for a mark?

Young Hideki crawling up the leaderboard! Can Bubba hold these guys off? My thoughts are no...he's too all over the place.

We shall see though!

Yeah, you're right. Watched it again and realized it wasn't a "dick-move" like I thought when I first saw it.

Staddler is amazing with his irons and lag putts. I can't believe how many 4-7 footers he has missed tho! Talented guy...imagine if he was in good shape, or at least had his weight under control.

I recall seeing an "in the bag" with GMac, about a year ago, he had a few non sponsored clubs and one pretty old club. Will search for a link. I think Pros carrying old clubs is more common than we would imagine, after all, they're golfers and it's hard to say goodbye to a club that you like to hit (especially when they've got the resources to keep an old club in perfect condition).

Here's that link, it's his hybrids that are "non sponsor" clubs.... He quickly moves on without talking about them too much :) I've see other "in the bags" were he completely avoids mentioning them, I was surprised he let it slip in this one. He doesn't say they're old clubs but I'm fairly sure they have been in his bag for years. Link [video]http://youtu.be/PcKCDQpkKN4[/video]

      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.
