I'm not so sure I'd give him credit for a moonwalk there ... he just walked backwards, albeit with a pizzazz that only he can. :-P

It would be impressive to moonwalk with golf spikes.

-said no greenskeeper ever. :-P

(Fair point though - and I think Jimenez might still be old school steel too??)

I think you are right on that.

Those look like metal spikes to me.

Haha, I bet it's a trip to hang out with MAJ.


He'd probably be a fun guy to share a round with (or even a cigar and a few fingers of whiskey).  The more I see of him, the more he's my favorite PGA Tour player.

Gotta love a guy like this:

Upon missing the cut at the 2015 Masters Tournament , Jiminez was typically forward-looking in his comment to Golf.com’s Alan Shipnuck :

Yeah, I was trying to think of a player on the PGA tour that had more Aces ? Very Interesting indeed.

he is huge. he gives impressive scoring performances against a young and fit field.

shame that some say he should not smoke cigars on TV when nobody says not to drive a polluting car when on TV.... :doh: the world is backwards.

If he was playing at the Senior PGA, he'd be leading by ten shots. He is unbreakable.

Tiger's credited with 18 in his competitive career, I believe. Jack has 22. These numbers aren't limited to just PGA Tour events, though.

Art Wall Jr. has been credited with 45 in his lifetime, including casual and competitive rounds.

    • Day 37, June 10.  Today was primarily WFH, so I had several practice sessions (indoors, off a mat, into the net).  At least one each of U, 9, and 6-iron full swings with the usual priority.   I also tried a few times a putting type stroke with my 4H, as something I should probably learn how to hit (and what it does), but the mechanical shot at home off a mat doesn't tell me much of what it's doing.  That's something I should probably try on a real green, not during a round until I've tried it.
    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
