I agree that the caddie isnt always blameless, but in the particular case of the 17th yesterday, what would you have expected the caddie to have said/done? As someone mentioned earlier, Tiger had the

Some low scores today.  Looks like Rory will not be one of them.  I hope between Rory and Tiger, one of them prevails on Sunday.

DJ and Simpson both had 17 GIRs today :-O

Simpson's average driving distance was 270 where DJ's was 310. Yeesh. 

Will be interesting to see how some of these guys with afternoon tee times do.

The Tiger, Phil, Rickie group is not making anything happen yet.

The leaders found most of their birdies on the back nine, so they can turn it around there.

Wow! What a blow up for Phil! Great to see so many ties at the top. Poor Sergio..17 has a mental effect on him. Stricker? Sorry...for me he’s a total bore. The whole ‘I’m retiring, no, just cutting back, no gonna play more’ real nice guy I’m sure but it’s like watching a claims adjuster give a PowerPoint. Some careless errors by Tiger but not bad. Hope they toughen the course up. I’m not a fan of   those -20+ tournaments.

So does that eagle mean Woods' eagleless streak is over?

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

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By jsgolfer ·

      Both @DaveP043 and I play in our interclub matches every year, and have been team Captains as well.  There are always a few courses, mine is one, that win a lot of matches (we've won twice in the last 7 years), and we've been labeled as sandbaggers.  However, I really think that our course was rated too low (our greens just never seemed to get factored in enough), and thus our Handicaps were always a stroke or maybe 2 above, what they would've been if the course was rated higher.  And then when we went and played other courses, their slope and rating were much higher than ours, and sometimes I would get a 2 or 3 stroke bump on top of that.  It was definitely an advantage.  However, this past year, our course was rated again and the slope has gone up, so we'll see if we continue to have the same benefit.  Season starts this Sunday for us.

      A Novice Journey to Building a Bag. (Help Appreciated)

      By snapfade ·

      I would not do anything until I met with an instructor and got your swing looked at. There are some obvious better club options out there though. Spend 50 bucks on a lesson, practice and start piecing together a bag that works for you. Enjoy the journey.
