So that's how a tree is moved.

The yearly Bill Murray, Chris Berman, and Kenny G tournament is upon us.

Such a pain to watch, despite it taking place at Pebble Beach…

I personally have always enjoyed watching it. Some interesting fun and takes away from the always seriousness of the game. I am just glad these Pro Am's are not a monthly event. 1 week a year is enough for me. 

What's in the bag?
2 Iron, 3 Iron, 4 Iron, 5 Iron, 6 Iron, 7 Iron, 8 Iron, 9 Iron, PW, GW, 3 Wood, 5 Wood, Putter
Titleist Irons, Callaway Woods and a Jack Nicklaus putter. Cigars and a case of Stella.

Not much of a root ball or system attached to that tree. Surprising.

Crickey, Gardner's World has changed a bit these days. Hope its not Alan Titchmarsh in the crane!

Seriously though its pretty incredible how they can do these projects AND limit the damage to the rest of the course.

Russ, from "sunny" Yorkshire = :-( 

In the bag: Driver: Ping G5 , Woods:Dunlop NZ9, 4 Hybrid: Tayormade Burner, 4-SW: Hippo Beast Bi-Metal , Wedges: Wilson 1200, Putter: Cleveland Smartsquare Blade, Ball: AD333

I was thinking that too. Maybe they cut some of it?

If you look at it from a distance, it looks like some trinket you buy from the gift shop. There would be something written on the base.

They'll probably show this on the telecast. If not, lost opportunity and proves the benefits of (hey we had a profitable quarter) Twitter over old school teevee.

Will have half an eye on it this evening - hate that all the 'highlight' videos I find are of putting on a green from a view that could be literally anywhere...

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

Ted Potter is on a 59 watch only needing to play last 3 holes at 1 under and can't even get on the camera. Instead we are stuck watching Fitzgerald, Wayne, and many other 8 handicaps hit wild shots.

They were showing highlights though but yeah their main coverage is on PB. They should have sent someone over there though when it was looking like a real possibility. I didn't see how he finished either bog bog or a double in there.

Bog-bog.

thing about this tournament is pebble Beach is the star.  That’s what people want to see, as its pretty much the most picturesque and also photogenic course on tour. 

Also, viewers like watching celebs play.  Viewers that prefer watching Ted Potter go for 59 rather than see Larry the cable guy’s big slice on the shot tracer are few and far between.  I watch golf every weekend and I am not one of them. 

 

However, my friends and i are now referring to ted potter as Mr. Steal yo girl.  Because if this guy throws another 61 in DJ’s face tomorrow, he’s definitely taking Paulina home.

He's not going to shoot 61. Or probably even break 66.

Yeah I'm sure he was stuck at the Mucky Duck drinking expensive warm beer instead of hanging out at Nantz house drinking wine and shmoozing.

    • A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club? Team Play Page
    • Day 3- Practiced putting for 20 minutes. 
    • Interesting that Scottie is #10 on the all time money list and he's been on the PGAT for 4 years. Of course, purses are bigger now, but  neat to look at non-the-less.  The list of top 18 money winners in PGA Tour history has plenty of surprises This list is updated through the 2024 RBC Heritage. To add, Scottie won 4.5 million at the Players, Jack played 44 seasons and won a little of 5 million on course. 
    • 43 (6 over) Couple bogies, couple Pars, a birdie and no doubles. Not bad for first 9 of the year. 
    • Most the stuff I found on Instagram and just copy and mix it up. a few of my favorites: Clean>Squat>Press> March Around the body >catch >Squat> press I also hold a the kettle bell upside down with both hands on the handle. Squat when I stand back up I lift the kettlebell up over and behind my head and hold then repeat
