A "Maltese Falcon"?

It's when you think you're picking up a birdie and walk away with a bogey.

 

I'm not sure, given where Rory played his third from, that he thought he'd make birdie, but I don't think he saw three-putt as a likely outcome either.  But it's a great golf term!

Jason Day makes 4 the hard way on 13, and he's back to even par.

Nantz mentioned Matsu finished behind Patrick Cantlay for low amateur in his first Masters. I haven't heard that name in a while.

I feel like Rory is just making stupid decision after stupid decision. They both hit a bad shot, but because Jordan hit 3W, he's fine and can slice away to safety again. Rory's striking it better, but just gets like a bull to a red rag at times.

Edit: then again, that's an absurdly good third shot...

Edited by b101

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

What's in the bag: Callaway X2 Hot Driver, Titleist 915F 3 wood, X2 Hot 3 Hybrid, 3, 5-AW Apex Pro irons, 54*, 58* Cleveland RTX, Odyssey Versa 1 Putter

That has to be the greatest golf term ever.

Oh my shit. Jordan Spieth your ability irritates me. Wake up Rory! You spend 7hrs a day at the gym compared to Jordan's 15 minutes and he is better than you right now. Wake the hell up.

Side note: Cantlay's caddy just died recently by a hit and run driver while he was a pedestrian. He was like 24; real sad.

Rory does have better pecs than Jordan, I give him credit for that.

Totally irrelevant to golfing ability, though.

I'm not a fan of laying up on reachable par-5s, but it's hard to argue with Jordan's result a moment ago on #8.

Chekhov's gun would like it someone was playing really well, but not scoring, but then eventually goes on a birdie run.

I'll take "Literary references in golf" for a thousand please, Alex. :-P

What an amazing two-putt by Jordan at #9. 

... and Smylie Kaufman makes a great approach (hole #14)

      A Decibel Meter as a Free Speed Meter?

      By billchao ·

      But it will change from session to session, from one person’s location to the next, etc. If your goal is to figure out X db = Y mph in swing speed to share with others, that matters.

      A Decibel Meter as a Free Speed Meter?

      By p1n9183 ·

      An you still took several minutes to write several posts and talk to sound engineers. I appreciate that you did!  So they basically tell you is possible but you need to be very restrictive. The same thing I found on my research.  Temperature: is not going to change much between swing A and swing B. Distance of max club head: even the PRGR take the fastest speed recorded, not the speed at the ball. But this could be diminish by swinging several times each swing and average the results.  Angles: also PRGR returns less speed swinging on a certain degree.  Clubface orientation: it is also an issue with launch monitors that are not reading the center of the mass of the club. You can have a lot more club speed if your face rotation is higher and your lunch monitor is reading the toe of the club. "Other stuff in the room": are the same from swing A to B, or you can just swing naked! haha  This is the main idea, I have a PRGR and Skytrak. There are plenty of people, more here in Argentina, that can't afford a launch monitor. Also wanted to share the idea and let it be challenged by others. I don't mind been wrong, is part of experimenting.  I did and all the swings were close to 85 dbs, me swinging at 90 m/h. But I don't mind doing a proper test later in the afternoon writing down the results. I need to find and app that also have frequencies in order to test both.

      Now it's not too early.  Strong US start - 5 pairings out now. Is it just me?  or does Tony Finau's clubs look just too short for him?
