Adam Scott looks to be doing just fine with the standard Odyssey.

Rory is effing up that final hole....

I'm really surprised that Scott is going with an Odyssey. He's a Titleist poster boy. I can't believe they let him go outside of their sphere of influence. It's better than him putting badly with their stuff if that's what it came down to, but still. I feel like Scott is the player most closely identified with Titleist.

I was actually thinking yesterday when they were showing him putting on the 6th, "Man, the new Scotty Camerons look just like those Odyssey putters" haha.

Good catch.  Is it the putter he used to use maybe?

Nope, he's playing with 'my putter is freezing cold' Luiten.

Better video

$200 dollars went into the lake :)

I am wondering if someone went to fish that out. I'll check on Ebay to see if a Rory long iron goes on sale.

I would say, great form on throwing the club. In control, just like his swing, smooth.

a few things that stand out to me after todays round...it took JB Holmes 5 hrs to complete his round today, wonder if he was placed on the clock any? he really seemed to be slower today then I recall him being in the past... Rory is down is Fla and I'm sure there are several teams down there for Spring Training that could use his services in the bullpen..man he threw that 3i a good ways in the H2O...and the 3some of the top 3 in the world were driving distances lights out today...very impressive

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • 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.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • 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?
