Yeah keep an open mind, I think you'll have a different take by the end of the week. Pebble and Spy are well cared for and a lot of money is spent on keeping them lush. Obviously with

Typical German. Blasts out of the gate and everyone considers surrendering, then he falters in the late campaigns. We just need some Brits, Frenchies, and Americans to come in and light that ass up.

For all the talk of super low scoring, there are only six players under par going into Sunday. It's really just Kaymer who played great for those two days, and everyone else playing ... well, U.S. Open golf.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

That's because yesterday played incredibly difficult. The first two days were relatively easy. I posted in this thread and comparison to the 2011 US Open at Congressional and the scoring was identical. My guess is after today the number of players who finish under par will be only 4 or 5 (if that) because the course is continuing to dry out.

That's true. Good point.

I love this Apple commercial. Anyone use the golf gadget from the other commercial?

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

The Zepp one? I have one. I'm not sure how accurate it is. I should find mine…

BTW, the boring part of the U.S. Open coverage is almost over. Good gosh they barely show golf from 12-2.

No kidding... Seriously why do they do that?? It's like they don't even think of what a golf fan would want to watch...

[quote name="iacas" url="/t/74727/2014-u-s-open-at-pinehurst-2-discussion-thread/630#post_1005655"] BTW, the boring part of the U.S. Open coverage is almost over. Good gosh they barely show golf from 12-2.

No kidding... Seriously why do they do that?? It's like they don't even think of what a golf fan would want to watch...[/quote] I've wondered that. What is the advantage to delay the live coverage? It's not as if broadcasting it would increase their costs.

The more I practise, the luckier I hope to get.

      Day 175 - Played 18. Another so-so round, today the driver was off. Concerning since it had been so reliable, but nice I still put some good holes together without it.

      Water in Bunker

      By anaveragehacker ·

      Wow, what an arrogant post, and for absolutely no reason, just out of the blue. I haven’t been here for two months because I only came here to ask a rules question. I got my answer, then stated my own opinion that it was a dumb rule to say a rainwater flooded sand trap does not get a free drop away from the water. That’s my opinion. If I came here to ask a question then obviously I WAS trying to learn the rules.  I won’t be back here again though. I can’t believe how hostile you guys get defending rules that MANY people think are dumb. As if questioning the rules of golf is sacrilege. EVERY sport’s rules evolve over time. I believe golf lags behind in that regard. Likely because of this inflexible attitude. I love golf and want to see it get better. Just like I love my country and want to see it change for the better. But you guys are the golf version of “love it or leave it”. Please delete my account, so I don’t get anymore of these notifications.

      Day 59 (30 Jun 24) - - 1/2 swing Sunday w/7i…Right knee a little tender, so just did some punchy iron shots using the hard foam balls.  Focused really getting core rotation.  Hit about 20 shots total - 1/2 from flat lie, 1/2 from varied lie (above feet, below feet, taller grass, etc).
