I think Chamblee should become Tiger's next swing coach. He seems to know EXACTLY what is wrong with Tiger's swing.

And the next instructor Woods is hiring is... me!

And you're missing mine. Designating someone as a mechanic or an artist is totally useless because it means nothing. Literally nothing. One mans artist is another mans mechanic. Once again, Ben Hogan

Normally I think things between other people, that I know nothing about, are none of my business...

But I can't help wishing I knew the whole back story in this case. ;-)

I think the two best swings on tour are McIlroy and Scott, neither are coached by Foley. Not that Foley's students aren't successful, they are. I think Tiger just thinks its time for a change. It's obvious that the Foley swing is not holding up for him right now. Maybe it's too hard on his back.

Adam Scotts swing looks remarkably simular to Tiger

Maybe Woods should get Holly Sonders, she's his type and certainly has had the experience playing lessons from the pros.. :-D

So are we taking bets on who coaches him next? Or should we start a new thread for that.

Mine's back a couple of pages. Put me down for none of Paddy Power's picks.

Trust me. Florida has taxes. I'm reminded every time I buy anything.


My son lives in Tennessee (a no income tax state) and pays more in total taxes than I do.

You're going to be waiting for a long time.

Yep, I saw. I'd have to agree.

New thread.

Man, that sounds like a lot of work.. hehe.

Of course, now that I think about it, it's very possibly going to be someone the general golfing public isn't all that familiar with.

And just to keep my post nearer to the actual topic, I guess I don't really know enough about what they were working on to have an opinion. But I can venture to guess that Tiger thought four years was a long enough leash to see results in majors, regardless of any injuries or personal life issues that were also going on.

Also, does anyone think it may have been a slight dig at Tiger when Foley said that (paraphrasing) working with Tiger was "one of the highlights of my career." Shouldn't he have said " the highlight?" I know one could argue that Rose winning the US Open was the ultimate highlight, but you'd think getting to work with Tiger exclusively would be tops. Maybe I'm grasping at straws here haha. :-D

Just read the news. Damn. Somewhere Chamblee is laughing so hard he is farting holes through his underwear.

      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.
