Having gone back and read his post/thread about what it takes to write for his magazine, I think it is only fair that I would not post in any of his threads. I understand his rules and why would his threads here be any different than his magazine; I'd love to read one of his magazines but I can't find it anywhere on-line. Maybe he could scan one and I'd be able to read it here.

I will continue to read them, they are far more entertaining than many of the rules threads, but those don't have prerequisites to post (and I hope iacas doesn't implement them, or I might be banned from posting altogether - - - - if this doesn't do it)

New rule: to post in any forum you must be completely delusional about a large number of things.-Thus only @PEZGolf and @Lihu can post from here on out. Take it away boys!

Verrrrry funny. . .:-P

On the course, I see lots of optical delusions only to get deflated one shot at a time. :whistle:

I posted in his thread even though I am not even close to meeting his requirements, but like you thought he was a decent poster and can still contribute once established.

No, you're not. You still need to address the issue of your handicap in the Truth thread.

    • It probably wouldn't matter if he stood on one foot — if he was still for a second, the water would likely recede and not be visible.
    • The rules can t cover every possible situation, this one is reasonably clear.  How would you rewrite it to fairly cover the situation you ask, and would it be better or more consistently understood? I think the announcers saw spray from the practice swings, and ASSUMED that there must be standing water there.  But wet turf will produce spray.  And of course Faxon was a tour player, so he views it from a players standpoint.  But players often don't understand the rules really well.  Its a shame they didn't get an actual rules expert at that moment, we know the USGA had people available.  
    • Fair enough. By wiggly I just mean the bit about stepping hard or the like doesn't count. Like, what if the player says they plan on playing the lie with massive weight on the front foot and ball back in the stance to try ensure no bounce interaction to prevent the club getting sucked into the soggy turf before the ball, and it's only with ~80% of weight on the front foot that you can see water? But I was more wondering what the announcers were complaining about?
    • Shot a 48, with not lost ball, no penalties, no bunkers, no 2nd short game shots, and no three putts. 
    • Day 5 - extremely long range practice session. Probably one of my best practice sessions ever. Doing things in slow motion is like 5x'ing the effectiveness of the practice. Also, I need these same "falling into lead leg" feels on my wedges. And guess what? Practicing this feel on shorter wedges is ALSO EASIER AND MORE EFFECTIVE. Combining much slower than full speed practice with shorter (50-90 yard) shot practice was really good. Change the picture on these shorter shots first. Feel like I'm keeping my arms as straight as possible on the backswing while hinging my wrists earlier is an incredible feel. I feel like this is doing stuff to my sequencing somehow? Much less rushed at the top because hinging was done at a reasonable time? One note someone made on my swing thread before I went on a hiatus was regarding this so I played around with it.  Clubs that don't require as much weight/pressure shift feel fantastic (driver/3-wood/hybrid), but that's almost always been the case.
