As a 9 handicap, these are my average distances. I've seen some people mentioning they play close to sea level. And I actually play below sea level. Not sure how that affects my distance. Driver 245 3 wood 210 4 hybrid 200 3 iron 200 4 iron 190 5 iron 180 6 iron 170 7 iron 155 8 iron 130 9 iron 115 PW 100 SW 85? Never hit a full shot

I think watching that instructional stuff is good for learning more about the golf swing in general. And entertainment off course. Just don't try to apply everything on your own swing.

I still feel like a hitter, but working on a drill which should make me more of a swinger.

What Kind of Tour Leadership Do You Like to See?
Fontaine replied to The Recreational Golfer's topic in Tour Talk
I don't really care who's number one. More important are exciting tournaments. -

I think it should be decided this week. The one that wins race to Dubai, is POY.

3 wood. Some of the par 5's you guys play are a joke. Shortest par at my home course is 550 yards.
-
TaylorMade, no doubt.

A Yellow Peter. Bitter lemon with fresh orange juice and ice.

This is ridiculous, I can see that why they punish players who don't play in the pro-am. But a DQ is way too harsh. Bad for the sport.
-
Without Kaymer's PGA victory I would pick McIlroy without a doubt. Still think McIlroy will have more wins, but it's close. For pure excitement I pick McIlroy without a doubt.

The Ryder Cup...Do the players really care?
Fontaine replied to PaddyHarrington's topic in Tour Talk
I imagine that for some players it's not too special. Players like Woods, Mickelson, Harrington have multiple major victories, that's what they really play for. Then you have have a couple guys like Dustin Johnson and Rory McIlroy that will basically fail if they never win a major. Majors are also what they play for. For the rest of the players a Ryder Cup victory probably is the most special they'll achieve. So they probably care most, players like, Ian Poulter, Soren Hansen, Jeff Overton. -
I played 3 rounds, 54 holes, about 2 months ago. Longest day of the year competition. Afterwards I felt like I could easily play 18 more. Off course I don't play a very hilly course. Dumbest thing ever, waiting for the fairway to clear I'm standing on the tee of the 54th hole of the day. I look at my ball and think, nice, played the same ball all day. Topped my ball off the tee, boom, water!

Wow, the look in Tiger's eyes is just awesome. Hope to see it again soon! Didn't see this one live, but the 4-iron hit at the President's Cup was pretty sweet. Mostly because of his reaction. Look of a killer in his eyes, hands in the hair when the ball didn't even land yet.

Selected TaylorMade because I love my burner irons. But also love my Callaway FTiZ driver and hybrid. And my PING wedge and 3 wood.

The REAL Fiasco at the PGA - Fans wearing Golf Shoes!

Standard if you ask me.. -
First 9 holes wind hard in our faces, shoot 40. Back 9, downwind, shoot 49. Worst score in months, maybe playing a bit too agressive.
