Rory beat Tiger by 7 today. Tiger will not win another major. He can't compete with the young guns. BTW, bones don't pop out in your hand and miraculously pop back in. He's in his head and as such, completely done.

:no:

I just saw Rory's interview at the end of his round: it was polite and courteous, and self-referencing (in terms of Rory's first major).

But what he didn't acknowledge was, at the end of the day,  we just saw a changing of the guard. The fact that we just saw Tiger's 1997 record get broken is not without significance. Fair play to Spieth.


Yeah, I don't think Speith can win here, yet. He's too short and too crooked off the tee.

Who is this idiot? :whistle:

Haha i've been thinking this everytime he was doing his hair, even though he had a cap on.  I'd get some hair plugs if I were him

It makes me appreciate my great hair. And I'll go double-check my hairline after this. [quote name="pepsiplusconker" url="/t/80870/2015-masters-discussion-thread/1746#post_1128471"]I love the masters, but this presentation is always absolutely painful to watch.  But tradition is tradition. [/quote] Really? Sorry to hear you don't like it. I love the Butler Cabin presentation.

Then again, I don't know, it's different, and that was OK actually. I think my mind is tainted because it was awkward the first time bubba won it I think, some handshake awkwardness, and an awkward interview

I also feel like it's abit too underwhelming for the occasion, but this is golf, not football/football

    • Ok, so going to get this posted, out in the world.  I haven't posted as much because of work life balance being s*** right now. I have this project in NJ (sorry @billchao, but NJ is a giant pain in the a** 😉) that is just sapped all my motivation for most anything else. My bowling league started up, so that is taking more focus.  I plan to start working out again, again NJ project, since I haven't worked out consistently in like 6 months. I also will start practicing golf again here soon. Time to get some indoor work done, and the golf course near me has a trackman you can rent out. So, I plan to hit some over the winter as well. 
    • Yep, I think the biggest issue is the carbon fiber.  Carbon fiber is not good for high impact due to it being brittle, and there can be catastrophic failures. If you consider something like bicycles, where the frame can be carbon fiber, but they usually have a beefy suspension system to take the shock. Carbon fiber is good in tension, not compression. It is bad in compression. It makes no sense to have a carbon fiber golf club that is subjected to both tension and compression on a golf strike, especially off-center hits.  Ping is using carbon fiber on top of the club at the back half of the crown to lower spin. It is probably in a place that wouldn't see much of the compression/tension from a mishit. Also, the bottom half of the club is metal. So, it is pretty rigid.  The Paradym Drivers have like 80% of their club as carbon fiber. The back weight distribution design is not connected, by metal, to the front part of the club. I can see if you mishit it, and that 20% metal starts to twist, it will create a section of the carbon fiber under compression, and it will crack.   Also, here is the tech description from Callaway on their newest driver... "The 360° Carbon Chassis has been refined to promote increased weight distribution. By adding an internal titanium support structure, the Carbon Chassis is now 15% lighter*. This mass is redistributed into the head to improve launch conditions and add forgiveness. Each Forged Carbon sole features a unique color and carbon pattern, making every piece one-of-a-kind." This sounds to me like they saw a large number of failures and added better material for more support, but they framed in a way to sell the club. 🤣
    • Ouch, @ChetlovesMer is catching strays over here 😜
    • Thanks Bryan! Working on it! But yes, good and bad days/hours
    • I agree with there being many aspects in which you could still be connected to golf IF you weren't able to play. I would try my best to not give up on playing yet though. Give it some time, be as positive as you can be (I know that is easier said than done sometimes), and try not to mentally give up on it.
