Don't automatically update the leaderboard before we see the putt, Fox!

JD taking a page out of the how to act over dramatic Tigger book. Making sure everyone knows that it's a miracle that he can make it to the next hole. I know people with Real Vertigo, and you could not play golf if it was very bad at all.

Everyone's so fixated on the big boys, we should know from past history that probably the little known South African will win. Reminds me of Goosen a bit. Not well known, but wins and solid world ranking suggest he's pretty good. Plus South Africans have been winning majors in bunches the last 15 years.

What terrible advice from Brad Faxon, about hitting a club hard instead of going up one and swinging easy. Didn't Norman lose the Masters because he overswung a five iron instead of going up to a four?

Saw that too ... That was lame. Like watching a tape delayed event on a sports channel and they show the final of that game on the ticker along the bottom. Well thanks a lot!

Nice view of the mountains as Spieth hits a shot we don't see, lol

If Spieth pulls this off, he is in the same book as Tiger, Jack, etc for me. The only thing that could derail him is a severe injury, or a mad SO coming at him with an 8 iron, heh heh.

Tiger completed the Non-Calendar Year Grand Slam, 4 consecutive majors, different seasons. if someone ever wins all 4 in the same season, it will be a real Grand Slam, and it will be better.

    • When I lived in Oregon my friend had a rule. It could only be 2 of the following 3 items for us to play. If all 3 we’d skip.    1. Windy (20+) 2. Rainy (needs to be steady, rain in Oregon is pretty common) 3. Cold (less than a high of 50) This was a pretty solid rule.    
    • Day 74: Worked on priority piece, full swing for about an hour this evening after dinner. Really need to exaggerate “hitting to right field feel” more than I think to produce slight push draw ball flight. 
    • Day 170 - Got some good work in on the short game, as well as more work on my priority piece. 
    • I searched around but didn’t see any other threads on this so I’ll put it here. I work in the laser industry and one of the applications has been additive manufacturing. The main market for the past 10 years has been SpaceX and the space industry and some medical applications. The new one I saw this week is 3D printing irons. Cobra and the company that they are using is marketing these irons pretty aggressively.  In talking with the folks in the booth at the trade show, the claim is that they can gain strength but reduce the weight to put it exactly where they want. The print of the iron is very cool. Mostly everything behind the face is a thin metal lattice and then in the heal and toe is a block of tungsten for weight.  I am old enough to remember the arguments about forged versus cast irons. I wonder if folks here will pay a bit more to get 3D printed irons.  They have a booth here where you can hit them but I hate lines and the line to do it is always long. I go again tomorrow, and if the line isn’t too long I’ll give it a try and report back.    Here are some pictures (I had some trouble uploading, I’ll try later)
