Unlike match play, I don't think there's an inherent right to know your FC's score in stroke play, is there?

I agree, that I'd want to know, I just don't know that you could refuse to continue to play without knowing.

Do you know the rule? You don't have to touch the ball to have caused it to move. Altering wind patterns can cause it to move.

Also…

 

I think I do.  And I also agree with what Steve Flesch said.  I see no evidence that DJ caused that ball to move.  It moved towards his putter when his putter was in the air behind it (and there appears to be not a breath of wind out there either) so what could he have done to have caused it to roll towards his putter?  I just don't see it.

DJ's putting is uncharacteristically good... especially given the circumstances

If DJ had missed that, we'd have seen him cut his own throat with a wedge on national tv!

So stating facts is now immature?

Go ahead and watch the tournament.  It's the putting and scrambling that's winning 

Lowry has been terrible at it today.

So does he need the decision before signing his score card?

Yes, but he can wait until Lowry is in, and if it doesn't matter, he can take the higher number if it doesn't make a difference (if it's later ruled he didn't need to, he simply signed for a higher score)

    • Phillyk is very close by. Ok, I understand how the watch and tags are meant to be used, but I was just curious how it actually works. I can't really think of any other way than what I mentioned above. No worries. If it works it works. I'll probably pick one up. My co-worker mentioned a free app called 18 Birdies which offers similar services. However I personally do not like keeping my phone in my pocket while golfing, nor do I want to be clicking around on the phone while out on the course. I toss my phone in my bag and leave it there until I am done golfing. Tapping a club head to a watch seems wat more convenient.  
    • Yes, but not always the case. IMHO, green speeds are a huge variable and can effect score variation from week to week or month to month significantly. Our own course that is running at about 8-9 depending on the week/day, can run up to 12 (no kidding) in peak months around certain event, and most like me score 3-4 shots higher on an average, missing a lot of 3-4 footers. There are any PCC adjustments that I am aware of. Have you every played their course? I am betting $20 you will find some answers if you haven't already.

    • I would recommend spending some time at the range and film your swing. You can post it in the Member Swings thread. At the range, you can figure out how to control the driver a bit more. We can offer some pointers once you post in the Member Swings section.
    • With the H4 or the watch, you tag the club before hitting by putting the tag next to the device. The tag is on the club butt end. After a round, you don’t really think about it too much. You just do it. I don’t know how far you are from @phillyk, but he may know an instructor in your area.
