  1. Well, Vegas is 6'4 230 pounds. That is pretty big. I agree though that Tiger and Rory aren't anything other than fit.
  2. I don't buy the whole Day, Tiger or Rory are built like a linebacker. However, after going to numerous events, the one guy I will say was decently big was Jhonny Vegas. He might have been able to pass as a football player. No one else so far. Any PGA pros that are actually big in size?
  3. 8,546 yards. http://clubsg.skygolf.com/courses/scorecard.php?id=56219 I honestly believes PGA Tour Player would still shoot under par if given practice rounds like a normal tournament. I dare to say scoring would even be low. Thoughts?
  4. What tournaments? State events?
  5. I agree with the NCAA Individual getting an invite. Does that seem fair?
  6. I say no bogeys. It would be something to go 72 holes of golf on some of the hardest holes and not make a mistake.
  7. Thinking about driving up to play it. Anyone been on it, and how was it. Was it worth the $
  8. Ok. I see I might have jumped the gun. Apologies.
  9. I think it would be cool to get an exemption into the Masters if you won the individual at the East Lake Cup. Thoughts.
  10. If you had DJ's driving including accuracy and you still sucked, you should give up.
  11. You seem to care more about how golfers look in tight clothing than the actual golf. But, with a name like Stefan, what do you expect...
  12. Look, distance matters. It is substantially easier to hit a 9 iron close than a 6 iron. That said, what is the minimum distance a PGA player could hit the ball and compete. (Not including roll) I am thinking minimum 265 carry
  13. It could have happened. He obviously is a solid stick. I thought politics were not allowed on this site anymore.
  14. Collapse on the last hole of the US Open and make a double bogey to lose by one, or be the leader at the start and shoot a final round 85. i would rather shoot the 85. At least then I was out by the back nine and could write it off as not my day. Less heartbreaking
  15. I will give you my opinion. I think a club pro is more likely to win. I think the only way for a amateur to win US Open is to go really low on either Thursday or Friday, and then just hand on for dear life on the weekend. Needs a 65 round on one of first 2 rounds.
  16. If someone shot a 72, and had a 4 on hole 17 and a 5 on hole 18th, but signed for a 5 on hole 17 and a 4 on the 18th, is there a penalty. It is the same score.
  17. An amateur winning the US Open, or a Club Pro winning the PGA Championship. Discuss
  18. Farmers insurance at Torrey pines starts it for me.
  19. Your mom sounds like a beast. Glad she exercises her right to defend herself and her family. Now for the fireworks...
  20. I played several times with someone kind of like this. He would always say "it would have been good if..." shank it in woods, he said it would have been good if hole was there. Hit putt 5 feet offline, compliments you on solid contact. It's like saying an air ball would have gone in if the hoop was over there. Yes, it might but that is irrelevant because it isn't over there!!
  21. Had a guy join me on first tee and he had ridiculous expectations. He was probably a 7-10ish handicap, but expected shots like he was a pro. On par 5 4th he hit a second shot from about 220 yard shot to the front of green. I said nice shot, and he said it wasn't his best and he expected it closer. I am a lower handicap than him and would be delighted with that shot. It really got worse from there. 18 holes of complaining about wedges inside 25 feet or not making bunker shots. He shot a 88. I don't know what he expected. Share.
  22. Adjusted stable ford seems like it would be fun for the trip. For the handicaps, I would make it so aggressive and good play is rewarded. Maybe something like this. Ace- 7 points Eagle (non par 3)- 5 points Birdie- 3 points Par- 1 point bogey -1 point diuble bogey or worse -3 this system rewards good play and keeps you in the match even with a bad hole.
  23. Wow. I'm sorry to hear that. How are you holding up.
  24. I dont bent my knees much because when I did, I had a tendency to get the ball close to the heel when my timing was off. Straightened up my swing and got rid of those heel shots. i swing my driver, but dropping my left shoulder and swinging up on the ball. I tee the ball up a quarter of a ball above driver head. Are you interested in buying the rocketballz?
  25. Wow. Your story is inspiring. Never give up. as for irons, I have a set of rocketballz HL from my junior time. Ultra forgiving. if you are interested. for what it's worth, I don't bend my knees basically at all either. I have a very slight bend on left leg, but right barely moves. just keep at it with the driver. If it goes left, maybe play for it by aiming more right. Good luck. If you ever need advice or possibly need a club, I can help.
