Vid is in link. It's NSFW, language. Wouldn't rank his club breaking as high as that of Roy McAvoy's. :-( http://www.golfdigest.com/blogs/the-loop/2014/09/dude-goes-nuts-snaps-all-his-clubs.html

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

That is very stupid.  He could have easily stuck one of those shafts in his neck.

Couple weeks ago I got to the 17th tee and someone had broken their wedges and stuck the shafts in the ground next to the heads. Was junk to me but the guy I was paired with grabbed the heads. For a while there was a butt end of a club sticking up in the pond on number one. Evidently it's pretty common for people to break clubs, see them in trash cans all the time but always crap. I never see a busted $400 driver or anything. I don't like playing with those types.

My guess is that he broke maybe $300 at most market value of irons.   He was venting and having fun at the same time.  If he was totally out of control he would not be able to shake hands and joke with people much less pick and choose clubs to break.   He's probably blown $300 before and not had nearly as much fun.   Nothing out of control about what he was doing.

Probably just wanted a good reason to tell his wife why he needed new irons. "I don't know what happened! Every time I swung a club broke in half! Must have been counterfeits, off to the golf store to get new ones!"

This was just about the dumbest thing I have ever seen.  What a D-bag.  Everyone is laughing, I would be embarrassed to be there with this fool.


Whether fake or not, it just seems stupid.  I am sure we have all felt this way before but this guy needs to grow up

    • I honestly believe if they play longer tees by 300-400 yards, closer to or over 7,000 yards, more rough, tougher greens, women's golf will become much more gripping.  BTW, if it weren't for Scottie killing it right now, men's golf isn't exactly compelling.
    • Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.
    • Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.
    • Oh yea, now I remember reading about you on TMZ!
