I wish the Brandel era was over.

I'm amazed just how assured some of you are in your ability to tell us the future.

This is the Rory Era. Tiger just lives in it.

That's cute.  Or, is it insanity?

- Fasted man alive to 79 PGA Tour Wins

- Record for Lowest Scoring Average in PGA Tour History

- Highest purse in PGA Tour History

- Youngest Career Slam in PGA Tour History

- Only player on the planet to have won all four (4) Majors in a row

- Record holder for number of consecutive cuts made

- Longest continuous reign as World Number #1 in PGA Tour History

- 18 WGC Championships

- 2nd longest winning streak in PGA Tour History

Oh, I almost forgot:

- 14 Major Championships

Wake me up when somebody else wins at least 10 of them in the Tiger Era.

Chamblee is a dope who likes to hear himself talk - occasionally he will be right - this is one of those times IMO.

Tiger will still showup and from time to time look like the GTiger of old but as far as an era goes...reference the end of Arnie and the start of Jack - the era has moved on, we are pasted the overlap stage - again IMO.

Driver- Callaway Razor somthing or other
3W- Taylor Made R11S
3H Rocketballz
4I-PW- MP-59
Gap- Vokey 54

Lob- Cleveland 60

Putter- Rife

Tiger's moment in the sun is over. He may come back with a couple wins but there is too much talent out there playing every wk. I have to admit I am suffering from Tiger burn out, I have heard more about him since his back went south than I think I've heard his whole career.

No-one is doubting Tiger's achievements. But they are becoming "the past" and he even looks old and tired.

Why do you even need to list them? The Tiger "era" is clearly at an end.

Would you be betting on him being better than McIlroy over the next 10 years?

People will be anticipating the excitement of watching Rory play in the way they did Tiger up until a year or so ago.

People are over Tiger. They want the old Tiger but he's not coming back.

If you can't see that we are in a transitional "handover" phase, you are blind.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Objects in the rear view mirror might appear closer than they actually actually are.

      Yikes! Colin Morikawa withdraws on 11th tee after the practice swing made his lower back twinge.

      Short Game Chef (Parker McLachlin) Short Game Videos

      By iacas · Posted

      My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.

      Short Game Chef (Parker McLachlin) Short Game Videos

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
