He may be a jerk in person, but he's a hell of a caddy on the course. I think Tiger should have hung on to him....but that's a whole other story that's been beaten to death. But congrats to him.

Can't deny he has been on the bag of couple world #1's ... Not sure personality is always a criteria in hall of fame selections ...

Great caddie, though.

And that's what the hall of fame is for, right? Caddies?

You're right about the second part. It's gotten to be gratuitous already.

Lots of professional sports figures are just like that; they're great at what they do, but they're awful people.

Not sure how they judge who deserves to be in or not. I kinda think caddies get lucky with who they pair up with. If wins is part of it, seems to me that Tiger won both with him on the bag and not.

Today I learned there was a Caddy HOF. I don't care for his attitude based on the media, but his career with Tiger should guarantee the spot.

A Caddy Hall of Fame? Really?

A hall of fame...for helpers. Never hit a single shot. Carry a bag. Yells at photographers. Tells the player yardage. Walks a lot.

I assume there has be a Stage Manager Hall of Fame. After all, that dude working the sound board makes bands sound good.

The key is the Western Golf Association. This is the group that is behind Evans Scholars and are huge proponents of caddy programs. There should be no doubt that Williams is a great caddy, whatever that means but Tiger and Scott don't choose caddies unless they are really good in many ways. Although Tiger's first 2 caddies tended to have large egos which later bit them in the rear end.

Right. What's a 'great' caddy versus a 'regular' one? Better greens reading?

Does Danny Noonan get in? What about Romeo...oh wait, no. He couldn't talk Roy McAvoy out of losing the US Open.

I think for tour pros a good caddy has to make few mistakes, protect their employer, be a bit of a psychologist and stay out of the way.

Need a HOF for NFL water boys and NHL ice girls.

Stevie deserved it, regardless of whether I like him or not, which I don't.

      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.
