  1. Wrong, we now know that Tiger nor his Agent got a copy of the book before hand. Haney was a opportunist with the book and is still gathering profits from Tiger by getting a TV Show. It is a shame that he had the opportunity to help Tiger. I am sure that Tiger is upset with himself for hiring Haney and not just going back to his old coach or to the one that he has now. Either way, Hank Haney knows that he took a cheap shot with the personal stuff that he put forth. It was a employee / friendship deal and to say it was not is just silly. No employee if he does not trust you will let you stay at his home and have dinner with his family. But it is the past and Tiger is winning and Hank Haney still can not stay out the spot light and wanted to say that he thinks Tiger is doing well. Well I think we can all see that.
  2. SO many of you are correct. Tiger Woods could win 9 Tournaments this year in 2013 and Chamblee will find fault in some way so that he can think or make others think that he is better suited to tell us all about Tiger and Golf in General. Chamblee is Bayless from ESPN. He is the side show for the Golf Channel to stir the pot against the best golfer of this era. He has no other purpose in life but to find someway to bring down Tiger and his game even though Tiger has won more in his Amateur Career or Professional Career then Chamblee could every accomplish. To say that he is a jerk is being nice. I understand Chamblee being opinionated but he takes it to a different level of knowing it all by just bashing one player. The idea that Chamblee things that he knows what is best for Tiger and his choice of instructors is just straight humor. I am surprised that he does not laugh at himself while he is on camera. Hell if it was not for Tiger and what he has done for Golf, there would not ba a golf channel for him to bash golfers that are playing on the tour. You can tell who Chamblee likes and you can tell who he dislikes. Tiger is one that he does not like because admittedly Tiger will not give him the time of day.. so attack Tiger because Tiger does not respect him as an analyst. Chamblee is a sad human being that has been given a platform to put others down in a game that he could not perform in consistently and that is sad..
  3. The products that Golfsmith sells are awesome. They coming in the correct packaging and I have no problem with the product itself. Now after saying that, I have no respect for the online staff or personnel that answer the phones. They are completely clueless to what they are predicting when it comes to the delivery of the purchased items from there company. I had no idea that they where the middleman for the company. I thought that they had the items in stock. I purchased almost $1300.00 in items from Nike on the 4th of January 2013. The receipt then showed that I was not getting some of the items sent to me until the 18th of January 2013. When I called and questioned the timing of the delivery of the things that I purchased, the first person from GolfSmith told me that she is sorry but she understands that I would not have known that most of my purchases would not come within a day or so until I get the invoice of what I purchased from them. She stated that this was a flaw and in there process and was sorry but did not want to loose my business. Got a few items that came on January 10, 2013 and I called to see if all the items was coming. The GolfSmith person told me over the phone that they are bidding on the items through the vender and having problems with the process but let me put you on hold and I will call them directly. Boom, she comes back to tell me that she does not understand why I got some items from the Nike Vender but everything else has not shipped and she does not have any idea when it will. (4 Nike Shirts, Nike Belt, Nike Hat,) January 18th 2013 comes and goes but I do not have my articles of purchase so I call again to GolfSmith, this time they tell me that they are sorry for the problems that they are having with the vender and it is still showing that it has not been shipped. SO now I find out that they are not just the middleman between what you are purchasing but a 3rd party in some of the products that they are selling at discount. I tell person from Golfsmith on the phone that I was very disappointed in this and this was not what I was expecting. Golfsmith rep stated that they are having a problem with the vender and are presently redoing there contractual obligations with them to settle the matter but at this time nothing is going to be shipped from them and all there customers will have to wait for this matter to be solved. SO he has no idea when the items are going out to paid customers. I then expressed my displeasure on the matter and explained to him that I will no longer be doing busy with GolfSmith and was canceling my other purchases that I did 7 days after my first one in the amount of $4759.00. He then stated that he would give me a discount on the first purchase order and said that he was sorry. January 20, 2013 got these items from my purchase (Nike Hat, Nike Golf Gloves,) I did not get the complete purchase order until January 25th 2013. As I am talking to the guy on the phone, GolfSmith Rep tells me that none of the rest of my items have shipped and he is sorry. Then the door bell rings as I am on the phone. Boxes from Nike (Nike Staff Golf Bag, Nike Towels, Nike Hat Pins, Nike Ball Markers and Nike Golf Shoes). I ask him as I have the boxes in the house when are these thing going to arrive and he says, I DO NOT KNOW SIR, I HAVE BEEN TELLING YOU THIS, IT IS OUT OF MY CONTROL AND THEY HAVE NOT SHIPPED YOUR PURCHASES!!!!!! So if you have the time to wait. And you want to wait for them to bid on items from your purchase through GolfSmith, then they are the company that you want. You are at the mercy of when you will get the products because Golfsmith is a 2nd or 3rd party vender of items at discount. You will have to deal with people that do not know what they are talking about or you will have to deal with major excuses on why you have not received your items of purchase but it is NEVER THERE FAULT. it is the vender that is letting them down, even though you made the purchase from them directly. So I will never purchase anything again from GolfSmith. They are totally uninformed, rude, lie, and disrespectful. When they get your purchase, they are happy but when you start to ask when you are getting your items, they are clueless. Just remember, they do not have your items in stock, they are getting everything from a 2nd party or 3 party vender.
  4. I figure like this. If you can afford a Staff Bag and you like the way that it looks, then do so without shame. As one of the others said in here in a earlier post, you have the same people wearing Titlest, Nike, Callaway, and other products on there body to the range and no one blinks a eye. So why would it be a problem for others to see someone with a Staff Bag with there name on it. Game or no Game. I guess the next comment will be that you should not be driving a Mercedes if you do not live in a 700,000 dollar home or above that has 6000 sqft in a plush new neighborhood. LOL.. Purchase what you can afford and buy what you like. What others think is just jealously or envy. I say again, what is a poser? If he can afford to purchase one then why not. I personally have a Nike Stand Bag that I absolutely adore but my sister knowing that I really like the game of golf and she saw one of the pros on TV having a Staff Bag and ordered me one and now I just got it. Yes she even put my name on it, but does not make me a poser if I use a present? No.. I will use it because it came from my sister and she spent her hard money on it plus she was smart enough to get a Nike Staff Bag for me because I have Nike Clubs. Now I would have still used it even if it did not match my clubs because it came from her. So I guess everyone at the range or at the golf club will be looking at my new bag as I destroy them on the course because I do go low on my scores but it really means nothing to me.
  5. That is so right.. this dude needs to give it a shot. No matter what anyone else says. You will always think what if, if you do not give it a shot in the dark. SO many of us use this board as if we are experts in the game or we doubt the distances of his without reading his complete scenario. One person in here even wondered where he was having trouble n his game when he explained that it was his putter in the latter parts of his story. Either way, go for it. Dont listen to the nay sayers that want to poo poo on your dreams because either they where not good enough or they can not seem to get out of the quick sand that they call life. Do your best and if you make it fine, if not then you know what to shoot for and try again if the opportunity arises, either way, you gave it a shot and that is nothing to sneeze at.
  6. I was told by my coach just yesterday that I have great control but I need to stop worrying about distance because my distance is long already with my SW being 92 yards and 5 Iron 205 yards. My accuracy is what he is more interested in from 47 yards to 180 yards. He could really care less about the distance that I hit the clubs but it is good to have length at this time. Hopefully it will serve me well at the monday qualifier next year on web.com tour in Louisiana. As for Tiger and Phil, when there game is on, it is a beast to deal with because of the length of clubs along with the accuracy of there shots. As for there club selection, it is clear that they have clubs that are much different than outs in loft. Anytime you are hitting a 7 Iron 200 yards makes good TV but when you find out that the club is equal to a 5 Iron or 6 Iron, it makes more sense to us that are considered long hitters with normal lofted clubs. I guess if I make it to the show, I will do the same but until then I will just strike for accuracy so that my instructor stays off my back when I over swing to get more distance out of a club when I see the numbers of the PGA Long Hitting Pros.
