Nice!  So I guess it's cold AND dark up there in Wisconsin!

Yeah, either that or I was just too lazy to turn all the lights on. :-)

For some reason YouTube doesn't want to process this...here's a VIMEO. Got 3 (2 got up, 1 was basically bladed) on the first pass and got all 4 on the second and third attempt. There was plenty of

About a 25-30 yard swing. First swing felt clunky with the fourth ball, second swing felt better. With the third swing the fourth ball went way left No change in pitching technique, just made sure

In some indoor places with fluorescent lights, if I film a 240fps, it has a seizure inducing strobe effect.  So darkness isn't so bad!

Just been trying to find out if there is a standing world record for this....not that i can find, however there is a record for number of golf balls fitted in your mouth (its five). Must be someone up for the challenge (hitting them, not eating them) :-P

Russ, from "sunny" Yorkshire = :-(

Wow, 2014! Time flies...

This would probably be easier now than it was for me seven years ago.

      Who Else Hates Scrambles?

      By iacas · Posted

      They have the potential for every one of their shots to count, and thus feel involved. And I think a lot of people use the C and D player shots more often than they think, if only because if they hit a decent shot the B and A player can "go after it" a little (typically resulting in a worse shot overall). When they're chipping for bogey and the A player has a 15 footer for birdie, they've been out of the hole for a little while already. They feel like they may as well not even be there. That's a big difference. I don't love scrambles, either, but they are what they are, and they do involve everyone more so than a SWAT.

      D players are just as sidelined in scrambles - maybe they hit one lucky shot or sink 1 long putt (putting first, always).

      Whoa. I'm a bit behind on my episodes so gotta catch up. Varying distance by +/- half a yard 200 out deliberately is........ well, if it wasn't Scottie attempting it, sounds incredulous. Insane indeed.

      So you understand this format is intended to get as many people involved as possible, but you prefer a format where the only scores that are likely to count are those of the better players.  How often do you think the score of the D player would count?  And knowing his score won't count, why would be "be bothered" to play?   I'm not a fan of scrambles, but I understand the reason to use the format.  I DO enjoy meeting club members, and I believe that my club's spring scramgle is relatively free of cheating, although there definitely ARE some players who overdo the libations.  If your club's scramble is rife with cheating, that's a problem with the culture of your club, not a problem with scrambles in general.

      I know that every golf outing is always a scramble because of the varied skill levels, but my buddy thinks I'm a snob because I don't like to play our club's kickoff event, which is an A-B-C-D scramble.  Yeah, I get the point of it to mix teams up and get to know other/new members, but I honestly can't be bothered.  Would much rather that they play it as a SWAT format - still A-B-C-D players, but you only count the lowest gross score (no gimmes).   I just don't get the point of scrambles beyond people who love to booze it up and they are always rife with cheating.
