Unsolicited advice is the worst. No matter how bad someone is playing, unless they ask, ignore their mistakes and try to have fun.

This, forever.

I usually ask them when they qualified for their teaching certification.

My dad put a wedge shaft on a 2 iron and could hit low punches with it beautifully. It was his rescue club and he'd hit around the green with it.

This is a really interesting idea. I might see if I can get my club fitter to build me one for fun haha

Who's the dickhead who left his 56 deg Taylor Made TP EF Grind wedge next to a green and forgot to pick it up? This guy :(

Think I'll just get a Cleveland or something cheap to replace it.

I did this with my 60 deg but it was like a $4 club from the used golf store and STILL nobody turned it in :(

But the driver is taking mad peels to the right, even with the slowest of swings and an extremely forward ball placement.

Open club face and closed club path. Choke up and hit a double out to right field with that bad boy, and make sure you get the face closed! :)

Lefty and Bones broke up!

https://www.apnews.com/ddd595d5e45b...edium=AP_Sports

quote:

Phil Mickelson and his caddie have decided to part ways after 25 years of one of the most famous player-caddie relationships on the PGA Tour.

Mickelson and Jim “Bones” Mackay say the decision to split was mutual and not based on an incident.

Mackay, who is not retiring, is the only full-time caddie Mickelson has had in a career that has brought him 45 victories worldwide, five majors and a spot in the World Golf Hall of Fame. Mickelson says his brother, Tim Mickelson, will caddie for him the rest of the year.

Mickelson did not play the U.S. Open to attend his daughter’s high school graduation in California. Mackay was at Erin Hills scouting the golf course on the odd chance Mickelson was able to make it in time.

I see so many able bodied people riding carts. I just don't get it. My wife and I played a par 3 course. It was a balmy 75 degrees out. People still riding in carts. Carts should be for old and handicapped people only.

1000%

I'm only in a cart if the temperature is over 100. My whole group walks. gently caress carts.

http://chicago.suntimes.com/sports/people-on-twitter-are-more-outraged-by-lpga-dress-code-than-golfers/amp/

The LPGA instituted a dress code that basically says no cleavage, no booty shorts, no leggings unless under shorts or a skirt, and no workout clothes. Most of the players are fine with it. Twitter wasn't.

Quote of the year from Christina Kim though.

You know, I never considered it before, but side-boob ventilation might be what I need when I'm walking in Los Angeles and it's 100 degrees out and I'm schvitzing like loving crazy.

I'm gonna go cut some holes in my golf polos, brb.

Unironically side boob venting probably helps at a lot of really hot events.

Christina Kim doesn't dress "sexy" though so of course she doesn't care.

Oh, I'm sure. I can't even golf in pants. gently caress that poo poo.

I am (yet again) hoping he's healthy. But... see thread title. :saddowns:

Also, his driver in 2000: 43.5 inches length, D4 swingweight, 7.5 degrees loft, steel X-100 shaft tipped an inch. He swung *that* 123 mph.

This is an insane club build, Jesus.
