Makes you appreciate Zach Johnson's game even more. Specially after his chip in just now, spent hardly any time and just chipped it in. Take some notes Andrew SLOUPE

Wow. Texas bunkers look just like Quebec bunkers.

Nah.  Quebec bunkers are currently full of snow!

They just put Loupe on the clock. Its about time! That guy has the worst pre-shot routine, very slow player.

Johnny Miller said he would quit announcing if Na, Bradely, and Loupe was in the same group. LOL

3 hour front nine. Unacceptable and needs to change.

I can sometimes forgive a player who takes a long time IF they hit a great shot... sometimes, but when they take forever and then hit a $h!t shot it is too much to take.

"While we're young" becomes "Before I kill you" pretty quickly.

[quote name="Ernest Jones" url="/t/73489/2014-valero-texas-open-discussion-thread/60#post_969344"]Gratuitous shot at Tiger - QUICK [COLOR=A52A2A]@everyone[/COLOR] drink a beer!  This is an awesome game! :beer:   We should play every sunday.

That wasn't meant to be a shot. It was meant to be a joke. :-D But there also is some truth to it. Once Tiger retires, they'll have to do something to spice up the game or their ratings will plummet.[/quote] FYI: jokes are supposed to be funny

Loupe and Kuchar are off the clock now. I'll agree with @DEsler , I can understand a slow/"delibrate" player if they hit great shots after their mind finally settles into the shot.

One of the few things that can make me quit this game is slow play. I can't do 6 hour rounds, just can't.

Good for Bowditch. But my gawwwd this year is a drag so far. Slow play, no namers winning, and good players sucking. Hope at least the majors will be rewarding.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

So it looks like another week where we have a new champion and a star player

Agree. This has been a very boring year so far. It seems like every week a big name is in position to win and blows it (McIlroy Honda, Dufner-Doral, Rose-Valspar, Scott-Bay Hill, Kuchar-Texas) and then a no name wins. I really hope the Masters provides some drama. I really don't want to see a John Senden-Matt Every Sunday showdown for the green jacket.

    • I am a huge numbers guy and if a number can be applied to something, I want to know what it is.  Even in golf, I will pace off short chips as I have a 10 yard, 20 yard, and 30 yard shot whereas I take the club back a certain distance for each.  I have heard the comparison to basketball players that they do not know their exact distance to the basket, they just use their eye sight and adjust which I know a lot of golfers do as well when within a certain distance to the pin.  My question is, what is that distance for you?  I was at the range today and was hitting wayward  balls to a flag that I had no idea what it's exact distance was, I estimate that I was at times as close as 40 yards and as far away as 70 yards.  I was amazed at how accurate I was having not known the distance to the flag.  Temps me to not use my range finder within say 70 yards and go by look and feel.  What say you?
    • Well, it was yesterday but I shot an 88 at Lake Park GC in Lewisville, TX.
    • PXG Orlando, other locations I'm sure its the same, offers a full bag fitting for 25 bucks which is applied to purchase if you are a veteran or active duty, etc. Unfortunately I like my Titleist's.
    • Latest rumor is Clarkson, May and Hammond will have a new team on LIV.  
    • That's not just sandbagging, that's cheating. Under Rule 3.3 for posting most likely scores, for example if there was a 2 foot putt for par, one can only take one extra stroke from what they lie, meaning par in that instance, not bogey. I didn't check the other instances but you can.
