He's just so mehhhh. I don't know how else to put it. He does nothing for me. This leaderboard is making me want to go to the range. I am trying to keep interested, but I can't. I don't remember ever being like this when Tiger was killing it or even Phil. Jordan is just not fun. Day makes this fun. Rickie and DJ make this fun. Rory definitely has the moxie and makes this fun (when he learns to putt). So meh.

I want to go to the range too.  I've barely gone in four months :-(But it's raining here.  

I'm also actually enjoying it, but I see why others might not.

Day within 4 with a bunch to play.

Just sliced it like a crazy person and did not get a Jordan Spieth famous lucky bounce.

would like to think that Westwood would save me from having to listen to another Spieth victory speech, but we all know he will sh*t himself once he realizes he has a shot :-(

Your perception is distorted by emotion.

He's about as white chocolate as they come.

What kind of men are your type? You like tall dark and handsome?

I'm here for the golf but whatever...

I wouldn't exactly say DJ exudes "emotion".

There's nothing moderately interesting about him.

He is bland, meh...

I can't imagine a Westwood victory speech would be terribly animated. For the reason you describe, though, it will always remain a hypothetical question.

"Your" emotion. Not theirs.

Is there a stat that tracks scoring after bogies or worse? I'd be interested in seeing Spieth vs the average.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Still confused by the statement "he doesn't show any emotion." Like huh? I even posted a picture of him showing lots of it. But whatever. Like someone said, Spieth must be becoming a true superstar because he's racking up his hater army.

You kidding? I know it's Lee, but after all his near misses, I reckon it'd be pretty animated.

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

Rory is definitely lucky he got his 4 in before Jordan came along. Jordan might just hold this tour hostage for 5yrs. Hell, Spieth could go wire to wire at Oakmont. Another course where he can avoid the big number compared to his competitors, his putter will save him and he can just laugh at all the others 3 putting their ways to 75s+

What's interesting is the great amount of success he's had in a relatively short period of time and overall he's a good person.  I don't see him being any different that Rory or Jason Day.

    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
    • I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
