This thread kills me!!!  Where do I start?  First of all it seems that the same crowd who puts the pro game so far above ours and puts these guys on a pedestal that the mortal golfer will never achiev

GROAN - What are you, 11? It's not as if that isn't the most predictable and hackneyed response possible. BTW, they weren't porn stars.

Probably just to give his new instruction time to work. Of course he already knows that.

For instance, go back to...Titleist

You don't honestly, HONESTLY, think that has anything to do with his struggles, do you?

  1. Don't listen to anything in this thread.
  2. Take more photos of your kids. Actual photos, on paper.
  3. Take the underdog, especially when the favorite is bet heavily by the squares.

Spend a little more time with your wedges on tight lies around the greens. Man, it was crazy to see him blading 5 irons and even putting from 20" off the green. Totally psyched out of the wedges right now, I guess since the Isleworth disaster.

Two things: 1. Rocco Mediate is a complete and utter fool outside of my next point. 2. He's rippin Tiger for his choice of teachers. Says he could fix Tiger's short game in 5 min. Then says go to Trevino (which is actually pretty good advice). 3. Sorry, I'll add one: Rocco is a self-serving idiot. 4. Here's another: McChord is a rock star.

4. Don't bet on slow horses.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

As a fan that likes watching crazy good golf, I agree with this:) But seriously I don't really think that anybody here should be giving arguably the greatest golfer ever any advise. I also agree with @iacas, really start living life with your kids. disclaimer: I really don't like Tiger at all. Especially his off the course stuff, but to each they're own.

I'd advise him to quit. He's never going to be more than a shadow of the golfer he was, and the longer he goes on, the more marked will be the contrast between what his fans expect, and what he can deliver.

The more I practise, the luckier I hope to get.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Im pretty sure at least one of them was.. + a couple other street walkers I think.. My advice would also be to just quit while ahead, make up a career ending injury and no one will ever second guess him.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
