Certainly nobody has had to play with as much constant scrutiny as Tiger, but I think it is hard to say whether there is more pressure on a guy at Q school who has promised his wife he will get a real job if he doesn't make it or a guy looking to win his 15th major or even a guy looking to make his HS team.

Scrutiny is a better word. Thanks.

That's actually a good point. I took the original post at face value and thought, yeah, that makes sense. But the truth is, for many years now, Tiger has played without much pressure other than what he places on himself to solidify a legacy. The guy at Q school is under far more pressure. Good post.

I do not agree.-Depends on how you define pressure and how you are subjected to it and react to it. I am under tremendous pressure to do things my wife asks of me but will I still be able to feed my family if I do not vacuum the den and wash the dishes?

"The expert golfer has maximum time to make minimal compensations. The poorer player has minimal time to make maximum compensations." - And no, I'm not Mac. Please do not PM me about it. I just think he is a crazy MFer and we could all use a little more crazy sometimes.

    • Its not. They are just giving an example in a situation say if cant reach it. Example, You have 230 to the center of the green, you cant hit a club you have that far, so you whip out a 3/5 wood or whatever, but you have to hit it soft because there is trouble in front of the green, a bunker or water. A full swing would land you in the trouble. You want to lay up as close to the green as you can. So you aren't hitting a full shot with that club so for distance tracking you can make that shot a provisional and it wont affect the distance stats.

    • I had a 5 wood.  Now have moved onto hybrids and have a 4 hybrid.  As I get older a more lofted hybrid and/or 7 and 9 woods will come into my bag.  I have learnt that as swing speed declines, loft is your friend
