Like I said, not saying it's going to be this week, but you're fooling yourself if you don't think the kid is on the verge of breaking out. Just look at his age and his recent finishes.

I'm not disagreeing I'm just saying that would suck ass.

Damn too bad for Tiger. Was fighting hard and then came that shot at 12. Now it's going to be a tough fight these next 24 holes or so to make the cut. He's hitting it better from February, but he's not there yet.

Just say it, Chris.   He's the next Tiger. :-D Let's see what he does the next 3 days.   The tournament has just begun.

Still think it's way too early to be talking about the cut..

Tiger's full swing may be a bit iffy, but his pitching has been class today

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

Agreed. He's holding the fort while swinging poorly, and that's an encouraging sign.

Maybe, but I think come tomorrow he'll be in that ballpark. However, I said coming into this tournament I really don't care what he shoots, I just want to see his short game improve drastically. And so far it has. If he misses the cut but comes away from this week with his short game back intact, he can say the last 8 weeks have paid off. The rest of his game will come with time. He's just fighting some jitters and tournament rust.

Slightly OT, but what's the technique for the couple of hop then stop wedges?

Agreed - he's also had a lot of good long shots, but the consistency just hasn't been up to the demands of the course.

Yeah, that could be. There's no doubt the last 8 weeks have paid off. Honestly, he's showing flashes of brilliance one moment but rust with some of his approaches. Still signs that his game is improving from what it was earlier this year.

Btw, is Tiger's group held up? Seems they're taking forever to tee off each hole.

He's just +2 with 6 to play and all day tomorrow. He's not miles away from anyone except Jordan.

Spieth reveals he's human with that dead pull approach on 15. He's looking at a very tough up-and-down from near the pond at 16.

Tiger is swinging out of his shoes, he almost fell over.

It just baffles me, almost looks like he's having fun doing it. How he makes pure contact with club is beyond me

    • The MTB Prime and Prime X had issues with the cover being too soft and getting cut too easily. They said it was more prevalent in the Prime than the Prime X which I found odd because that was the exact opposite of my experience.
    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
