Anthony didn't even play well, made 1 good shot. Iron into waste area on 1, fat second shot, pitch in. Drive into bunker on 2, layup into rough, long third, 2 putts. I don't think his play would/should intimidate anyone. Plus, if you pick him you are guaranteed to never have to listen to him again. One way or another and I think that's worth it on it's own. Dave is Canadian, and we don't all say aboot :D

Very disappointed in the show last night. First, the level of golf was not very good. Second, the best looking, and IMO only really good looking female is gone. Given these facts I don't see too many reasons to keep watching. In the first challenge I would have always outbid the other person by 1 foot no matter how low it got. You might as well at least have a shot at it. If you make, they don't even get to play and if you miss they only have one more foot. So, she says 10, I say 9, she says 8 I say 7. I don't know why you wouldn't. BTW, did anyone notice how hilarious Mary looked in those baggy rain pants when the 5 winners were standing alongside one another? Looked like she had a pillow stuffed in there.

I don't know. Lauren is pretty hot. Spectacular body. The new co-host is very pretty too. And we at least know she'll be there till the end. Golfing wise, I think Sedena wins.
-
my thoughts exactly. I was very disappointed in the play. Hard not to like Isaac though. Good for him.

He totally skulled his second, or third attempt it just happened to roll up and stay on the green. Just plain luck. That being said, I just love Jerry R. the person. The most enjoyable part of this series is seeing what great people these athletes are. I suppose it could all be the editing but they made sure to show Doleman as a bit of a control freak so I don't think they'd completely shy away from showing these men as they truly are. Every one of them (save Doleman) seems completely likeable. I don't really care who wins at this point, just hope we see some more good play like we had last week.

The golf this week was pretty bad. Some of the worst I've seen on all the BB's. When they were preparing for the elimination challenge I thought that Rypien may play the par 5 on his own and have James and Meghan play the Shamble. James did not play well in this episode or in the one before it if I remember correctly and Mark had been hitting some solid shots. Would have been gutsy but might have turned out better. Of course Meghan bogeying from about 100 yards might have made this a moot point. And like the poseter above said when I heard Maghan say this isn't the last you see of me, I thought "only next time it's be with staples in her belly".

Stef could only carry that team for so long. Oren was hit and miss and Del Greco was miss almost every day. Too bad, she's probably one of the top 2, or 3 ladies. After watching the up and down debacle where they all had trouble getting up and down, they should have instead showed 20 minutes of the three other teams at the water park. Then maybe flashed the elimination results at the end of the show. ( by "three other teams" I mean Mallory, Zakiya and Meghan) - The hatrid on the Doleman team seems real. Although Brian and Shannon have formed a nice bond. - Still can't believe Rice is a 1-handicapper with that swing. - Emily is the cutest thing ever.

"Rypiens' team has Meghan so I thought that team was doomed." Agreed. I think they have been helped greatly by the types of challenges thus far. They can kind of hide her lack of skills somewhat as there's been an "easy" shot to give to her. Earlier show they played a par 5 and each had to make a shot. So, she gets the relatively easy second shot - just has to hit a 6 iron into the fairway. Many of the challenges have been shots from 3 locations and one is usually an easy one - a pitch from off the green, or something. She's not so bad that she can't get up and down (in 3) like the rest of them. James seems like a really good guy - I hope Meghan has given him lots of "thanks" for carrying her. If Ryp gets hot, this group could surprise and continue to roll.

Nice to see Meghan actually par a hole. Actually just nice to see Meghan for a least 2 more episodes. :) Although, I'm a big fan of Mallory too so the result was a bit disappointing. The handicaps of the NFLers don't seem to match their ability. As in, they have low handicaps but all have awkward swings (aside from Del Greco who has a nice swing), but have struggled with basic putting, chips and sand shots. Doleman seemed like a jerk in that episode. Simple questions from his teammates were replied to with "whatever" responses. Brown seems like a cool dude and Del Greco seems really "normal". As does Rice, actually. So glad I have a PVR now, it would be pretty painful to watch the 20 minutes of commercials each episode. Although I fear I'll miss the teaser when they might show Meghan at the pool in her bikini.

Meghan looks like she may ruin it for her team. (but what a rack!)

Thanks for the responses. We went out and hit both RBZ and Bladez and didn't notice much distance. he liked the RBZ just as much as already excited about the extra distance either of these gives compared to his previous set. Looked at - but did not hit - the Mizuno 825 as mentioned earlier but I would not get the best price on those as I would on the TMs. Given that I could get the RBZ for $549 and the Bladez were going to be $725 we went with the RBZ. Hoping to pick them up tonight. Now, here in Southern Ontario we just need Spring to actually arrive!
-
Thanks. I have a set of Mizunos myself (MX-19) and love them so will take a look at the ones you suggest.

Hi all. Looking to purchase some irons for my 16 year old son. He has hit the RocketBladez and really liked them. The pro has stated that there's not a ton of difference between last years' Ballz and this year's Bladez but we have not been able to hit the Ballz version yet. I can get the RBZ (last year's) for about $550 and the price I can get for the new model Bladez is $725. We have read some comparison's and reviews but wondered if anyone here had any thoughts. He's a high handicapper so a club like this is ideal from what I'm told. I just wonder if it's justified to spend almost $200 more. Thanks for any insight Barry

3PuttKing - I just looked closely at your avatar. that's awesome lol

Not just her putting. Her short game was weak in the finale. Too bad, I was hoping for some drama, but that was over as soon as Marcela won the hole where she put her drive in the trees. That was the turning point IMO. marcela in trouble, Selanne in the middle of the fairway. Marcela pars, Selanee bogies. I think that made it 3Up, but I also watched the previous episode because I had not seen the Selanne/ Glorianna match and since the other girls were back for a bit I figured I better watch. Seeing Meghan in the interview room changed my mind about her boobies. Definitely implants. Alison looked amazing! Aubrey is much taller than all the other girls - funny that i hadn't noticed until last night. Marcel played exceptionally well and applied pressure to Selanne the entire time. She really only hit a few bad shots. The course looks pretty easy to me. Appears to be short, flat, with wide fairways and pretty flat greens. Don't get me wrong, I'd hack it up all over the place, but I wonder what a tour player would shoot out there in those conditions? -6 without breaking sweat? At least the best player won. Congrats to Marcela. And when are we going to get a Girls of Big Break? Come on Hef!

Seriously? She is a stick. I thought she looked better at the start of the show. As much as I have complained about the challenges, I think we probably have the best 3 remaining. You could make a case that Christina or Anya also belong there, but the 3 that are left IMO have been the most consistent players.
-
Ya, I'm not really sure why, but I don't like her. Pretty sad that I can't explain it, I just don't :) This year is really lacking in off-the-course controversy. Everyone seems to love everyone. Has there been one time where someone said something negative about someone else? This week's show sure wasn't set to challenge the girls much. Other than the pressure of being there the contests were a bunch of simple little chips and pitches. The "take a chance" game was lame because there was never any reason to not "take a chance". Only 2 of the cards had anything less than the 12 foot mark so of course they'd all "take a chance". Then when Anya got stuck with 6' (and nailed it!) it was pretty much for sure they would all "take a chance" . IMO this should have been 50/50 split of closer/farther than 12'. They seemed to play better but I think that was mostly because the challenges were fairly simple. Loved watching Anya nail 4 drives right down the gut! Nothing to it. Christina is a great putter

then start rooting for Glorianna please

How about Gerina Piller (Mendoza)! She was on Big Break PEI. Did pretty well for herself this week at the LPGA Championship.
