When Bubba was complaining about the course design last week, it wasn't about the layout of the course but instead the layout of the stands surrounding the green.  It took the official approximately 10 minutes to try to find an area Bubba could drop so that he wasn't closer to the hole than his original lie.  Also, I wouldn't call a ball that lands on the green and bounces off an errant shot.  I assume you've never hit a flyer out of the rough?  I agree that Bubba does complain a lot but in this instance, I think he had a reason to make a statement about the layout of the stands.  Not only did he have to wait 10 minutes to hit his next shot but the other 2 players with him were having to wait on the green.

Right, and I actually agreed with him, there should have been a drop area plotted there or moved the stands back 10 yards. He ended up getting a huge break on his drop from the long stuff to the short stuff, from short-sided to lots of green. Made par as I recall. No way he would have from where the ball originally sat.

Golf Digest has a great piece on this. http://www.golfdigest.com/blogs/the-loop/2014/08/why-does-bubba-watson-rub-peop.html Quote: He had to play with raindrops on his driver

No-one has an issue with the human part of it. That's fine. It's the entitled arrogance and phoniness of the man. He's not a bad Christian, he's an unpleasant human. Hypocrisy is his worst fault.

We all bring our biases to the party when we post here or anywhere, it's kinda the point. Indeed, I find you to be perhaps the most biased member of this site. But, that's OK and why we're here.

      Whoops! Yep. That’s what I get for posting first thing in the morning. Anyways, Day 82: did my drill swings outside with foam balls for a solid 15 minutes. Still need hands down before turning.

      Caddies who wear shorts in obviously cold weather are just as stupid as football players who wear short sleeves in Lambeau in January. Nobody thinks your tough. We just think you're a moron

      I don’t have much time to practice beyond indoor putting, which I do most days.  Lately, I have been trying a variety of methods against my normal claw grip (which I changed to in 2016, or so, after developing the yips).    - Utley method - soft elbows that starts back with right elbow sliding and then uses gravity to let putter head drop and left elbow slides along left side. Great accuracy and start line, but distance control varies. - Stockton method - start with putter a little more vertical. First move back is forward press and then draw club head back. Maintain wrist angle and drive back of left hand towards target. Likely need more loft on my putter, but this has been very accurate and great distance control. Works well, for me, with both claw and index fingers pointing down the shaft.
