  1. I saw sergio's arse fall out at carnoustie and in the PGA. Some irish dude with crazy eyes lucked in on Garcia's misfortune. As for the ryder cup your dreaming...Donalds back was so sore from carrying Padraig that Monty switched him to Fisher and you could see him running straight to the physio after his match due to back pain...padraigs not a small lad! Harrington is the only pro golfer i can think of that when they hit a drive the crowd runs into the middle of the fairway for safety!
  2. Padraigs awful, and he has been gifted 3 majors. We won the ryder cup with 11 men.
  3. always happens when people are watching! i also hate the thinned iron shot in winter...the one that stings so much it brings tears to your eyes.
  4. hopefully all goes well with the op etc. 75 notes for that trolley is pretty good last time i looked at them they were around the £100 mark. nice bag aswell. very similar to the tour callaway bag which is very nice as well. i carry at the moment but i did have an electric trolley for a bit before i was forced to sell it you will notice such a difference after a round....you feel as fresh as a daisy. definatly fewer aches and pains.
  5. just bought this book on amazon....i hope its as good as some of you guys have said. Certainly sounds like a cracking book thanks.
  6. this book was a complete eye opener. the whole book transformed me from a 16 handicapper to a 9 within a few months. At the time i was turning my hips loads rather than creating torque between the upper and lower body and the bit about moving the lead foot out to 45 degrees made so much sense. he is without doubt my golfing hero.
  7. sergio has been on the tour since he was a kid. I have thought for the last year that he just didnt look like he wanted to be there and that a 3-6 month break away from the game would be the best thing for him. That way when he comes back he will be hungry again. the guy has so much talent its unreal. If he could putt like tiger he would have double figure majors. flat stick kills him.
  8. dont know if this counts but after playing as a righty for 10 years as an 8 handicap i changed to left handed (my natural side) and after a week of practise played a 92 first time out, no cheating and no gimmies. A lot of golf is course management, decision making and putting chipping so having the experience may have helped alot, even if i was scuffing a few shots.
  9. longest, 350 on a par 5. 500 yard hole and had exactly 150 to the green. that was wind behind height of summer with firm fairways. normally i shrimp it around 260.
  10. In response to me only wanting English players in the team, couldn't be further from the truth since I'm Scottish. Listen I have nothing but the utmost respect for every single pro golfer, to play at the level they do and to hit the shots and make the decisions they make under the most intense pressure is incredible. I'm sure that harrington is a great guy but I just don't rate him as a player, I think he has over achieved and made the most from his game. As for cabrera he is great to watch but he is patchy as shit. The guy couldn't get two or three top tens in a row if his life depended on it. And to compare these two or any other active pro to tiger is foolish. Tigers record is the stuff of fantasy and I guarantee he will beat jacks record.
  11. Ok let me stick some stats and facts in to back up what im saying, obviously im on my own here with my opinion but im sticking to it.. Cabrera - 46th in world. (will be outside of top 50 by this time next year) 143 starts on PGA tour. - 19 top tens, 1 top 3, 2 wins. Now if we ignored the fact that the two wins were majors then he would be a journey man. Harrington - 22nd in world. (Was in the top 10 a year ago) in 2010 played 18 events on PGA tour. 1 top 3 and no wins.....Harrington ROCKS! oh wait....he doesnt.
  12. Yeah Cabrera worse than North. Again he only won the masters because Perry bottled it. As for Faldo he's a chump. Worst European captain bar none. He couldnt even get the players names right at the opening speech. Picking poults was the only good thing he did for the team. And Harrington is toss. He lucked his way to three majors and has done nothing since. He is as over rated a golfer as U2 are a rockband.
  13. 1 major = Rich Beem. 2 majors = Angel Cabrera. 3 majors = Padraig Harrington.- worst in my opinion. He lucked his way to three majors because Sergio bottled two of them and Greg Norman bottled the other. Without his short game he wouldnt even keep his card. Cant believe Monty picked him over Rose or Casey. Just crazy!
  14. Your right brad and dottie are the business, some of the stuff miller says makes you wonder if it's actually an ex pro talking or have they actually hired phillip Seymour hofman. They both sound and look very similar.
  15. Personally he annoys the shit out of me but I thought I would throw it out there.
