I meant the last two majors. 2012 was awesome

I enjoyed watching the majors this year, but many didn't and I understand why.  They certainly weren't nail-biters.  I think the British is going to be quite entertaining, we're bound to get a good one here eventually.

Some notable tee times:

3:37 am: Rickie Fowler, Sergio Garcia, Luke Donald

"Productive" can be such a vague word to define....

You won't have to as long as you have a deathly illness and are bed stricken ;)

I'm driving home from Carolina all day Sunday. Going to make an attempt to DVR it and watch it Sunday night or Monday morning. I will have to totally ditch the cell phone (with the exception of music) and ignore the outside world.

That's true, it's all relative

Somebody on the Golf Channel said in his practice round at Hoylake he would have been unlikely to break 80 if he played 18 holes.

This is disappointing.

It might have just been a bad day; they said today that he beat Matt Kuchar in a match.

Good stuff.  I'd like both those guys to do well.

Tiger is never going to change. Just watched his press conference. Gotta love him but he's starting to get delusional.

Damn, which group has better ball striking?

I suppose as of RIGHT NOW, you'd have to go with Scott, Rose, Dufner.

Two great groups to watch, especially with the irons.

I didn't catch it, what did he say that was delusional?

Looking at the weather forecast, Friday looks like the day that you're going to have to dodge the big winds. Supposed to blow harder for the afternoon groups, so that doesn't bode well for Tiger or Rory. Other than that, looks like a pretty warm week with some rain over the weekend. Winds not much of a factor besides Friday....but beware it is the UK and forecasts change by the minute.

    • Day 211: putting work today on my mat. Worked on some feels to get my head to move less. Contact was improving.
    • Day 9: 2/15/2025 Spent several 5-10 minutes sessions today working on what I learned from Yoda yesterday. Pretty much a new priority piece. 
    • Day 25 (15 Feb 25) - A little background on today’s drill session.  On the way to band rehearsal this morning I was listening to the guys on PGA Tour radio in the golf school segment and they got to talking about short game practice.  As I love working that part of the game, my ears perked up.  They were talking taking multiple clubs and doing pitches/chips from the same distance and learning how each flies the ball.  So today was the start of the 8P54 drill (8i - Pw - 54°).   Set it up to hit two balls with each club from the same lie to a set distance.  It really helps envision what I should see in each club.  A sweet new twist to a fave drill.

    • I will most likely buy the TSR1 klineka mentioned, though they didn't respond when I asked the seller if they had the +6 weight. They only said the weight was the standard 9g. I contacted a couple of local pro shops, one said they would call Titleist on Tuesday (as Monday is a holiday) for me to order a +6 weight, but the one said Titleist wouldn't have it anymore since it's an older model. Anyway, I will probably buy an aftermarket weight from eBay. Any concerns around aftermarket weight on eBay? They are not cheap, like around $15.
