As a fan that likes watching crazy good golf, I agree with this:) But seriously I don't really think that anybody here should be giving arguably the greatest golfer ever any advise. I also agree with @iacas, really start living life with your kids. disclaimer: I really don't like Tiger at all. Especially his off the course stuff, but to each they're own.

I agree completely, if you are paying $45 for a round of golf then that's your own fault. I have found that I can get tee times on Golfnow (not an endorsement) for very reasonable prices. You may not always get to play the best course or the course that you wanted to but there are always deals out there. Bottom line is if you/I want to play badly enough you/I will find a way. I say this as a man, like many of you, with a 19 month old son with very little spare time so I know it can be done. And you can bet your ass that I plan on making another golf course patron out of him :)

Should the PGA Tour throttle back technology or lengthen courses?
mp33 man replied to weexpectedTHIS's topic in Tour Talk
I couldn't agree more, Maybe I'm in the minority but I love watching pros pick a course apart be it with length or finesse. It makes me realize why they are there and I am not. -

mp33 man replied to weexpectedTHIS's topic in Tour Talk
I think a stat was posted earlier in the thread that showed that PGA scores have not really changed all that much lately. I think the game benifit from more people simply realizing that they aren't PGA players and playing the correct tees. -
Hole-in-one? Or easy birdie? Would you count it?
mp33 man replied to Foursum Golf's topic in Golf Talk
Or have you, Looked like a HIO to me :) or maybe I wad drunk -
Am I the only one that is turned on by these irons :) And I don't even like Callaway.

Well since you ask, yes that does make you a criminal. It does not however mean you should go to jail for that crime (depending on how much you exceeded the speed limit by) but it does mean that if you were pulled over and became combatant or in any way assaulted an officer that you should go to jail. I say this as I current non weed smoker.

Many post have also tried to make the issue about moral right and wrong rather than an issue about legally right or wrong..
-
Or maybe you just haven't read the thread? There have been many post eluding the idea that the OP should have minded his own business.
-
I've also sensed a total disregard for the fact (if indeed this incident even took place) that smoking weed is in fact illegal in whatever state this incident took place according to the OP saying that it " is legal where we're from". Whether or not the guys needed to go to jail I don't really know but they still broke a law and most definitely were idiots for lighting up in front of a stranger.
-
I don't know about the state laws in which this incident took place but as in Florida the only just cause a police officer needs is for he/she to smell marijuana.

Sorry, let me revise. I agree with this statement but I think that each different circumstance calls for a different plan of action especially when you consider different hole layouts. -

That's a very vague statement. To get to that -

BTW Anyone who says 160> must also hit their driver "450 yds" :) -

I picked 101-110. I think that others have said above that the question/answer needs more explaining and I would agree. 1) At 101-110 yds I have a couple different options: I can hit a full sand wedge that will back up, I can hit a 3/4 gap wedge that will spin a little, or I can hit a 3/4-1/2 pitching wedge that will run out a little. Whereas with 60 yds I really don't feel as comfortable hitting a 3/4 lob wedge, I would probably try to run a pitch up there which limits my options. 2) If I need a birdie (which is always, so my strategy never really changes) my best chance is from the fairway, duh, therefore if I have no chance of reaching with driver I'll use as short a club as possible and try to leave myself around 95-110 yds. 3) If I'm laying up on a par five I'm not going to hit driver and then 9i just so that I can have 95-110 yds, I'm going to hit it as close as possible while still avoiding trouble. All that being said, give me a 60 yd bump and run type shot any day. -
Do Not Use a Heavy Club or Weighted Donuts
mp33 man replied to iacas's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
I would imagine very similar to a heavier club. Still training a different muscle group than the ones primarily used for a golf swing. BTW I tried swinging a bare shaft (like mentioned above) before my last range session and I have to say that I seemed to control my clubs better after doing so. I don't know if that was the point of the exercise was but that's what I got out of it. -

mp33 man replied to iacas's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
To be completely accurate, the "guys with the most athletic physique" may very well have a larger mass of fast twitch muscles seeing as how fast twitch muscles are generally the more prominent (or visible) muscles on the human body therefore larger forearms may very well mean more fast twitch muscle mass. And yes in a movement like a golf swing I pretty much am saying that "fast twitch muscle tissue is basically everything". As far as training in a manner to obtain more fast twitch muscle tissue... I'll leave that to personal trainers. And bringing sprinters and high jumpers into the argument.Track athletes have long since made the claim of having 80% fast twitch muscle mass, proving the importance of fast twitch muscles. -
Do i need 5 wedges with my play style?

Learn to hit half shots and control your yardages. -
Do Not Use a Heavy Club or Weighted Donuts
mp33 man replied to iacas's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
That being said, I do use a Momentous training iron both to warm up and when I get a couple of minutes except that I use it to try and prevent myself from over swinging. My issue has never been clubhead speed or distance and I think that the training aid that I use is tremendous for teaching tempo. -

mp33 man replied to iacas's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
To reiterate the original study that was done by "Sports Science", the problem with trying to build muscle or increase clubhead speed by swinging a heavier bat/club is that the heavier bat/club does not strengthen your fast twitch muscle tissue which is the muscle tissue primarily used for a baseball/golf swing. -
