  1. She is better than most of us will ever be so he can teach me all he likes if I will play as well as that!!!
  2. I completely agree! Thats why people change putters so often! Although look at one of the best putters in the world and Tiger has only changed putter 3 times since turning pro!
  3. It a great putter! Its even better if you got the centre shafted model!
  4. very funny! but im not sure they would be allowed. It would depend how tiger won the majors! If he hit hardly any fairways and won with easy they may then make the rough deeper and OB closer to the fairway!
  5. Very good point! I think the other tour pros will be thinking "How do we beat this guy" but then they would get on with it as it is there job! The media would go crazy about it, but i think that Tiger would be the same Tiger that we know and he will be very modest! Cant wait to see when it happens!!
  6. No worries! I like to think that it is not the equipment but the player that makes the difference although this is changing with modern golf clubs! Have seen the adverse effect with people buying new clubs and playing worse as they did not get fitted and the lie angles are all wrong mean that hit it all over the place! Good luck and hope you find a great set for you!
  7. Go with a range of clubs in mind. As if you are set on one set of clubs you will not see that another set maybe better for you! Also do not buy on price. By this I mean that do not buy the most expensive set as they are not always the best for you and also do not buy a set as they are cheap. The amount of clubs that are now sitting in my garage that I bought because they were cheap and are not suitable to my swing!
  8. Hold on! Come back down to earth and play golf for the game that it really is! Who cares if you shoot 61 or 101. Its about more than that! It seems that due to your desire you have lost the fun side of it!
  9. That is a great way of thinking about it! The one thing worse that losing is cheating!!!!
  10. Try before you buy! Two golfers experiences are never the same!

    Tiger as God?

    All I now need to do is bring out a best selling book that people will follow and i am set for life!
  12. It sucks as for the last 2 weeks the courses have been shut due to the buckets of rain that have fallen! They are now open but are not going to be in good condition due to all the rain that has fallen! Also i haven't played for about 2 months due to crappy exams! Last one on wednesday, so i will be back trending the short stuff by the weekend, COLD WEATHER OR NOT!!

    Winter wear?

    Well the base layers must be good as Tiger was wearing one on saturday and sunday at the Buick! I have a Under Armor Cold gear and it is amazing. Canterbury have a new product out called IonX that is meant to really improve performance, so much so that a Premiership team have signed a contract that does not allow any other team to use the product!
  14. Was playing with a friend. On the tee of a par 4 and he thinned the ball, it hit the ladies tee marker and flew behind us into the woods. Lost ball! Everyone except him was on the floor laughing!

    Tiger as God?

    Is that not what most religions are based on, as god with great talent?
  16. Yes!!!!! He is trying to do the opposite of Tiger but talking and Hi5 all the fans. Shame is crap though!

    Tiger as God?

    Who is with me if I start a new religion with Tiger as god? Well what he has done in the last 2 seasons has been amazing and what he is done right now at the Buick is amazing also, so there is no way that he can be human! It may even help you play better golf!
  18. Daly was using Taylor Made clubs while sponsored by Maxlfi as Maxfli is owned by Taylor Made! Does anyone remember the episode of Daly Planet where he went to get clubs from the TM factory! It was like every golfers dream!
  19. I can keep a ball up for ages until either the phone rings or someone distracts me! Its more about the tricks that you can do! I can flick it between my legs, flick in onto my neck! THats what impresses people!
  20. It the one shot you will hit a round that is as good as Tiger Woods, may it be smoking a drive or hitting an approach close or sinking a difficult putt. It is the feeling from these shots that keep a golfer playing. Although the social aspect is a close second as I have met many great and different people through the wonderful game of golf.
  21. I have a r7 425. I do not tend to notice the difference in the ball flights only when i set it neutral:high or neutral:low. Although i am pretty confident at changing the ball flight and can easily hit a draw or fade on demand.
  22. You may be missing lots of putts because your eyes are no longer over the top of the ball. Set up to the ball and then drop a ball from your eyes and see if it hits the ball on the floor. If your eyes are not over the ball your alignment will be completely wrong.
  23. I wear a glove for all long shots. The idea of wearing a glove is to stop your left hand from gripping the club to tightly. It has nothing to do with extra grip!!
  24. I swapped a White Hot no.5 for a 2 ball center shafted XG (its not the STR but they are similar) and i love it. It has a slightly firmer insert than the white hot. I have so much confindence with the putter that i can do not need to line the ball up to the hole as i used to. I just put the putter behind the ball and make a stroke. The other bonus is that you get an odyssey poker chip inside the headcover!!
  25. Better is Adam Scott but Sergio has got that exciting edge about him and is more fun to watch. He could do something amazing at an time. If sergio worked at his putting a bit more then he would be as good or even better than Adam Scott!!
