Boring?  BORING?  Mike & Mike, Mad Dog Radio, etc etc how could these guys even use the word?  Did these sportscasters even watch the tournament, or did they tune in for the last 3 holes and expec

It's not the weather, though, as you may expect ... But rather, Phil Mickelson is just starting his practice round. ;)

Another awkward handshake coming up?

Wasn't that Bubba?

Winning score is going to be higher than normal.....probably around -5 or -6 if that. This course is going to be very firm by Sunday, but I do expect Augusta to set it up for scoring the last day like they normally do. Scott, Watson, and Snedeker are the 3 names that jump out at me as serious contenders early. Don't see Oosthuizen hanging around because of his back problems. Haas, Walker and a lot of those other names haven't faced major pressure yet. The most surprising score to me is undoubtedly Zach Johnson. Did not see that round coming. Thought Dustin, Phil and Day would struggle because of their recent injuries, but ZJ's score came out of nowhere.

[quote name="Golfingdad" url="/t/73499/2014-masters-discussion-thread/420#post_974995"]-8. [/quote]No Cobra driver for me (cuz Zack Johnson is a giant a-hole) but what is my consolation prize for this piece of prognosticating brilliance from Thrusday evening?? ;). (I may not be the best TST predictor this week, but I'm at least Top 5 ;))

I don't know. As hard as Bubba lashes at the ball, every swing was exciting to me. Who knows what is going to happen when he walks onto the tee? Two first timers T2. Weird that Nance (or someone) called Blixt a youngster (or something to that affect)...he's almost 30.

Why do they call golf "golf"?  Because all the other four letter words were taken.

Jordan is hungry.

And maybe the winner will post more now that he's won something.

And he said his game is good enough to win a major. What an arrogant a-hole! ;)

Probably won't be invited back for comments like that.

Forget unknowns winning a lot of PGA Tour events this year. How about a regular wins one of these SandTrap contests one time? :beer: I don't care who it is, anyone with over 1000 posts will do.

      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.
