  1. 1. If you tried to set the over-under to draw even money, at what 36-hole score would you set it?

      0
    • 139.5
      6
    • 142.5

    • 145.5

    • 148.5

Yeah, so if he shoots close to the score you pick, that indicates the money would be pretty split. :)

If you set the line at 142.5 and he shoots 137 or 150, the bets probably weren't 50/50. You set a bad over/under number. :D

Well, I technically said 145.5 but said I wanted to say 142.5 so that's like 1/2 a win at least. :-P

I am neither a Tiger hater or lover and said this number should be 147.5....and that I would make a big, big bet on the over if I ever saw an opportunity at 142.5.....

I was wrong and I have to give Tiger a LOT of credit to be sitting at 142, and really without getting too many breaks quite frankly.....he could very easily be on the first page and going out late tomorrow......how awesome would it be to see a birdie, birdie, birdie start out of him.

Why is there a check mark on the poll next to 139.5? Edit: my vote?

Doubt that he's cured the yips.....they come out with tight lies, pressure, and an audience....The Masters has all three.

He'll W/D to save face.....

He won't be able to hit a yip-wedge over Rae's Creek - maybe he can putt it over the Hogan Bridge on #12 like you would at a putt-putt course......

145.5

Tiger's short game/putting will be excruciating to watch at Augusta, IMO.

You two are probably tied for the worst predictions so far

I think he makes the 36-hole cut and flirts with the leader board.

This by far is the best prediction on this thread.

    • My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
    • Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.   
    • No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death. 
    • Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area? 
    • I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
