Just my opinion but tee or no tee a bomber is still going to have the advantage of length off the tee. How about tapering the fairway so it narrows more with length and thicken the rough. The bomber can still crush the driver off the tee but by doing so they are putting themselves at more risk of a tougher approach shot to the green. Seems like it would work for a hack like me but may or may not work for a tour pro.

I'm Tired of People Comparing COVID-19 to the Flu
J M Brown commented on billchao's blog entry in Random Musings
When covid started attacking the US I was one of the people saying how much more risk the flu was. After researching I quickly realized how much worse than the flu this actually is. I’ve fully bought into the recommendations of social distancing and limiting the chance of exposure to myself as well as my family. Most people in the county I live it has as well. I’m still amazed at the people I know that aren’t abiding to the recommendations and are continuing to live life as they were before the virus. -
Sponge and Rubber Golf Balls
J M Brown replied to Cantankerish's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
It’s ok I fill the divots in their yard with sand before leaving haha. Not really. I hit them and go pick them up after hitting them all. It’s double duty golf practice and exercise since the gyms closed too. -
Sponge and Rubber Golf Balls
J M Brown replied to Cantankerish's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
I hit the yellow foam golf balls pretty often lately. They will go farther than you think like mentioned above. I live in a residential neighbor hood and will hit them from my yard to roughly 3-4 yards down. Fortunately I have great neighbors that don’t mind me going to retrieve them from their yard. They seem to mimic true ball flight characteristics for me. The downside to them is they are super light and the wind really affects them. I would much rather take my shag bag to the local park that has an open area for me to hit real golf balls, but since the local parks are prohibited righ -
How to Grip a Golf Club, Commonalities of a Functional Golf Grip
J M Brown replied to mvmac's topic in Swing Thoughts
I love this thread. I’ve been researching grip pretty have lately. The top picture is where usually grip the club in my lead hand. Would you consider that too palmy? The middle picture is where the club is in my lead hand. Should I position it more towards the fingers like the bottom picture? -
I got his stats for the current web.com season on the PGA tour website. He’s averaging 337.3 off the tee for the season.

It seems like every time I’m watching highlights on the golf channel Cam Champs driving distance comes up. Looking at the stats he’s averaging almost 20 yards more off the tee than the current PGA driving distance leader. He’s also hitting almost 20% more fairways than the current tour leader. I would be interested to see how those numbers transfer to PGA events after graduating from the web.com tour.

Day 16 July 11, 2018 I worked on chipping today. I would pick a target and chip to the target with a low trajectory with roll and then a higher trajectory with less roll. I also took some full swings with the foam golf balls at home.- 7,258 replies

Day 15 July 10, 2018 I worked on putting today. It rained most of the day here so outside work was out of the question. I worked on 3’, 6, and 10’ putts. I would putt three balls from each station. Then repeat the drill again.- 7,258 replies
