A little OT but who else on tour shapes the ball as much as BW does or comes close?

Rickie hitting a ball out of spinach towards the tree I was cowering behind. It hit the tree and dropped down by the Shotlink training pole. Annika, this years memorial honoree being interviewed.

Did Bubba's driver break? Sounded horrible...

Stress of being number one is getting to Bubba.

That was the dumbest shot ever that bubba just tried. A guy like bubba should be playing for the win, not solo 3rd!!

Let's go Matsuyama... I can't stand Kevin Na... BTW anyone see Bubba hit a PW 184 yards? I cannot even comprehend that...

Yea, not sure how I would play it. I think I might have actually putted it. Though trying to dunk it on a one hop isn't a bad idea as well.

This tournament is absurd

I think it's brilliant.

It's funny. The press goes ga ga for Ryo Ishikawa (spelling?) and seemingly out of nowhere (yes I know he's not exactly unknown), another player from Japan emerges. We've been seeing Matsuyama here and there but it just makes me believe more and more in parity in the future.

I also thought it was a great tournament, and it was the first tournament I've watched through in quite a while. Big names in contention, everyone got into position on the front nine, and them the drama unfolded on the back. Na shot a 64 to get into the mix today, and Matsuyama almost holed like 3 approaches in a row on the back. Watching Bubba scramble is always fun to watch as well. I don't know why everyone so desperately wants the same person winning evey week again. I want to see whoever is hitting the ball best win.

Tiger became almost a mythological figure by doing this. When he was on it was electric watching him.

The good 'ol boys of golf don't like change much . . . I agree with you, and I think it's more exciting knowing that anyone can win

I don't know why, but I've completely lost interest in watching non-major tournaments. I find them boring now; I would rather just play a round.

      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.
