one day a muti-billionare will buy the land to put 72 holes in a row on it and they can hold the U.S. Open on it. I think I would take time off work to watch it. wouldn't be there to walk all 72 though,my couch would do just fine!Cheers,Flash

No problem. I like seeing different thread topics also. But, this particular thread was not a question. You just, well, made an opinionated statement.

To respond to this as if it were a question, I doubt they will ever play 72 different holes for an event like the US Open. Pinehurst already has the means to do so a couple of times over, but they use the #2 course for the US Open.

By the way, it's FIJI. Not Fuji.

would never work. How do you have a cut unless everyone plays the same holes everyday?

If everyone plays the same holes every day, what's the point of 4 different courses.

everyone does play the same 'first 36 holes' the weekenders play holes 37-72.I must have been real bored or tired when I posted this thread.can we just forget the whole thing? lol Cheers Flash

    • Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)
    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
