Just saw a photo of the 3 picks; Bradley, Mahan and Simpson.  I saw 3 different hats advertising 3 of golf's biggest names; Titleist, Ping and Srixon.

gotta wonder if there is some subtle, unmentioned connection in these choices and, yeah, you guessed it: money to PGA or Ryder Cup, INC.

No.

Particularly since they don't even have logos in the Ryder Cup. And Polo is the PGA partner through 2020.

Tom Watson and the PGA couldn't care less about this.

Team uniforms, are they really going to be wearing those pants?

Ralph Lauren imo really missed the mark here.  The pants in the middle look like pajamas I own.  The outfit on the right will look good on Keegan, RIckie, and Jordan.  Furyk, Reed and Phil will not look right in any of them.

Actually, yeah, now that you mention it, I think I have those too!

But I can't make fun of the pants at all because I have golf pants kind of like that as well.  I'm not linking it here but I wore them to one of the outings we had. ;)  (I also have red pants like that)

I just don't get the green.

The middle ones look fine. I don't really like the other two - solid red is too garish and the pinstriped pants just look stupid.

Well, good to know. Erik has spoken, un-ambiguously and to the best of his knowledge. .  But whether  he speaks  accurately is not known.

As opposed to you, who just makes up random conspiracy theories, apparently?

I'll take it.

I actually like the green/ blue patch pair the best. Not a fan of the striped blue ones. Phil should like them. He normally wears the thin striped pants. I am very eargerly anticipating the Ryder Cup.

Hey Erik. Please don't edit without permission or statement of such.  I am fully aware that only you have the eraser but 'honesty is the best policy',  don't you think?

And if discussing coloured trousers is up your alley, go for it.

Your original post contained name calling and was edited.  If Eirk had not edited it, one of the other moderators may have scolded you about it.  Please refrain from name calling in your posts.

    • I think I remember reading that Wilco Nienaber broke some record for having the fastest hands at around 27mph. His clubhead speed is probably of the order of 130mph or so, so that's roughly 5 times as fast. As Erik said, the math gets very complicated - it's at least a double pendulum system, but also with the "fixed" point moving and all the forces and torques applying to the club and the hands and the rest of the player start to get very complicated. My coach works with a biomechanist and between them they've put out a few books on the physics of the swing and it's hella complicated, but fascinating.
    • Well, it was four years ago, but… yeah.
    • It's still moving, but it's not very fast (which "almost" might cover), and it begins slowing down around P5.5 to P6 in most good players, for a bunch of reasons. The math gets pretty complex pretty fast seeing as how we have two hands, the club is acting on them while we're acting on the club, etc.
    • I was talking to a buddy of mine and he said he stock a GPS tag in his golf bag. Seems like it might be a good idea. What do you all think? Have any of you put one in there?       
    • I am six and a half minutes into this video and honestly don't think I can handle any more of it. I do see some of my swing in his - sucks it inside and gets across the line at the top. He also looks like he comes OTT a little, but is then very in to out. That's probably my cluelessness about the swing showing up though. Did I hear him say he's 15* in to out? That's insane and not something I would think anyone would want to do. I'm surprised he put this out there if his goal is to sell his method to other people, you'd think he'd find someone good who uses it to model it, not himself.
