In case you missed prior days, here is a brief re-cap. As the sun rises in Phoenix, the ragtag bunch from East of the Mississippi is feeling confident, but not overconfident. @mvmac is d

Next update 12:30 MST. Kyle front 9 was 1UP, not 2. 5th and 6th matches went one to West, one to East. East lead still 1. Lots of golf left!!! Exciting

This is slander (or libel)!

Not if it's true.

OMG it's the 2012 Ryder Cup all over again. Let's get it together, East!

12 points are still up for grabs. I have double-checked this status against tweets, but these are UNOFFICIAL!!!! I am interpreting the tweets as the scores on the back 9, not the overall total. Then I'm computing the overall 18 score.

THIS IS GONNA BE CLOSE!!!!!!

I might stop scoreboards for fear of altering the results.... I do not want to be a part of this story. This may go down to the wire, if things stay rolling like they appear to be.  Either team could get hot, of course.

Deep into the back 9, if my math is right, we have a 27-27 match.... if the scores remain the exact same as they are now (which is not likely).  That shows how close this is. If players are watching, this- every shot counts. Or lowest score wins. Or whatever. It's a nail biter.

Close, yes, but Red is going to take it unless Blue really pulls it together. Not done yet. Not locked up yet either.

Colin winning that 16th hole tipped it to a SLIGHT Red advantage. But very slight.

Screaming children near me, so my focus is not 100%. Play well, guys!

      Best Budget Golf Ball

      By NHpro ·

      Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.

      Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.

      Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.

      The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.

      7 Wood

      By ZenShot ·

      I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
