No reason ... just not a giant fan. ;)  I'll become one if he redeems himself at the Ryder Cup this year though. BTW, if somebody hasn't already, they need to come up with a catchy new dance video, complete with lyrics by Brandel Chamblee (feat. Frank Nobilo and Lil John) called the "Push Hook."

According to Ian Baker Finch, if you give Furyk a short iron he hits it close every single time. No hyperbole there!

I have no sound ... are they meticulously analyzing Tigers swing by comparing the differences and ignoring two vastly different camera angles??

Lol, yes, that is exactly what they're doing.

So it's not the shaft lean, it;s not being able to square the club?

As things stand, I'm as good a driver as Tiger Woods. This is a truly awful display.

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


Hoppa, another birdie for Luiten and T5! Come on!

Boy this coverage is horrific. The focus is on Tiger's group, but none of them are doing anything. Then the guys that are playing well, they show once in awhile.

I'll defer to the pros on that. I had a shaft lean (with the driver) and struggled squaring the face at times, I eliminated that lean and I've never driven the ball better. Is it the shaft lean? I can't say for sure

Gotta love IBF. I hear he likes Rich Beem's chances this week.

I agree. Tiger is missing the cut. Period. Now show us people who are playing for something.

Woods and beaver-face both making chumps of themselves on the 6th green.

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

I can't get the TNT stream to work very well, so I am stuck having to watch the Marquee Group stream on the PGA website.

Tiger is done, for this week, anyway.

Are you serious? Please Tom Watson.....DO NOT PICK THIS GUY! I want to actually have a shot at winning next month.

    • This video got into my youtube feed. And I watched it.  But I'm confused why not spinning in "the revealer" is important to making putts.  Maybe I'm oversimplifying this, but it seems to me, your hands are holding the putter. So, it isn't going to spin when you swing it. The ball isn't that heavy so as to overpower my hands when I don't hit it dead center. If the ball was so heavy as to overpower my hands when I don't hit it dead center, than certainly it would be heavy enough to overpower the lie-angle balance, right?  Don't get me wrong. I like the demo. It's something they can show people and say "Look our putter is different." But the more I think about it the less I think this feature matters.  I have an open mind, however.  Let me know if there's really a benefit to this that I just don't understand.     
    • Welcome to the TST.  I always suggest that everyone starts a MySwing thread.  Have fun, enjoy the forum.  
    • Those are good. But they are like the Dan Marino of cookies, The Oatmeal Raisin is the Tom Brady of cookies. ... IMO ... 👍😜👍 Eh... I'll make the black and white cookie the Vinnie Testaverde of cookies. 👍👍... Once again, this is my opinion. 
    • Do you have another son-in-law that you don't really like?  The answer to your question IMO is lessons. Many others have mentioned why.  BUT...... If you son in law is abnormally tall, or abnormally short, or has super long arms or super short legs or something like that, then at least a static fitting would be wise.  Having said that, just because lessons are likely to give him more improvement than new fitted clubs, doesn't mean you shouldn't give him the gift of new fitted clubs. There will still be some benefit there, plus, going through a fitting and getting shiny new clubs is fun. ... And golf should be fun. 
    • Love me some Oatmeal Raisin Cookies. but it still comes in second to the Black and White (Half-Moon) cookie
