2018 Ryder Cup at Le Golf National - Paris, France
Big_in_Belgium replied to lastings's topic in Tour Talk
Yeah, I totally do not understand picking Garcia. I also am not convinced Stenson is a good choice, based on his play the last months. I admit I'm a little biased towards Pieters - I would've loved to see him out there again allthough he didn't have the best of seasons. But no Matt Wallace? Surely he's in way better form than Sergio? -
Exciting game to watch but it cost me a year of my life Japan played solidly in the second half and took maximum advantage of their chances. But we'll have to play a lot better against Brazil if we want to advance to the next round.

This. Both teams are using this game to rest their best players. And despite what both managers said, I think they won't mind losing tonight to get in the 'right' bracket.
-
Definitely. Conners doesn't seem fased at all, he's holding it together quite nicely.

Shit, come on Tiger, let's do this!!

This woulde be a de facto bifurcation, right? No way are 'they' rolling back the ball and expect it to not have any consequences on the amateur games?

Rules Situation: Ball Rests on Twig Over Hole

Just sent the pic to my friends I'm taking a golf trip with to Spain in May. The first response: "If this happens to me, I'm taking the first plane home." -
Rules Situation: Ball Rests on Twig Over Hole
Big_in_Belgium replied to iacas's topic in Rules of Golf
I'd have a hard time convincing my friends it's not holed but I can't help feel like you're right. It's still touching the grass, right? -
I played a long awaited game against one of my co-workers. Due to ourwork schedules it was difficult to set a date, it took us almost a year to get it organised. Off course, during that time there was a lot of banter and a small bet (for some bottles of wine) and everybody at work knew about the game. I played very well (for me): ended up with 84 (+11) with 3 birdies. Very pleased needless to say! Sent him home with his tail betwen his legs and that nice Italian wine I've got coming my way will be a nice reminder.

UK analytics firm YouGov: Golf is the most boring sport to watch
Big_in_Belgium replied to nevets88's topic in Golf Talk
Cultural differences and all... The most boring sport ever: baseball. Live as well as on tv. Closey followed by cricket. @iacas I'll give you cycling, at least when it comes to the sprinter stages in the GT's. Those aside, it's a very tactical and exciting sport to watch, if you know what you're looking for. Also, I don't really understand what american football is doing so high on that list, I really like it. -
Well, obviously, it's not miraculously. He has a deal with Titleist to play almost excusively their gear. And he has played other sets in the previous years before he settled on the MP5's. The one club he hasn't changed is the Ping hybrid, the one he calls Rinky Dinks. Titleist allowed him to have that stay in the bag allthough he will be testing their hybrid at some point to see if it can replace the Ping.

I'm relatively new to the game. I've only had two drivers, so not much history. My first one was the Taylormade Jetspeed; I liked it but have not got anything to compare it to. I cracked it's face last year and now have a M2, which I got fitted for. Still have the cracked Jetspeed clubhead, on a shelf, next to my poker table, as some sort of trophy :)

I voted 'don't care' (at this moment). Looks fine for Hawai. Don't know if I'd like it for a regular tournament, Definitely won't like to see him wear it in a major. At my club shirts are supposed to be tucked in at all times, so maybe I'm just accustomed that look...

Hole 19 GPS
Big_in_Belgium replied to Hacker James's topic in Balls, Carts/Bags, Apparel, Gear, Etc.
I don't know how much data it uses during a round but something I forgot to mention in my previous post: if you play a lot of different courses, you can download the course maps to see how each hole plays out. I've used this feature quite a bit before playing a course I was not familiar with. It at least gives you a general idea how each hole is designed. -
Do you wear a glove when playing golf?
Big_in_Belgium replied to Zeph's topic in Balls, Carts/Bags, Apparel, Gear, Etc.
When I first started, I did not use a glove but now I don't think I can play without one. Maybe that's just a habit? I do always take it off on the green, it just does not feel right, putting with a glove.
