You shot a 71 at SHGC in 25 mile an hour wind with Sunday pins. You are fineI’ve been looking at new wedges and see that as a shaft option. Worth it?

We must live awfully close to each other.Alright, I’ve been playing a decent amount of times this year and my swing has become awful. Should mention that I started getting vertigo a month ago and my balance has seemed to be just a bit off.
Anyway does anyone have a recommendation for lessons in Lincoln or even Manhattan, KS? I’m about an hour from each

Depends which side of the state line you hang out onWe must live awfully close to each other.
There 5 days a week but reside in the 1 license plate state.Beaterville/Gage Co. USA
Just south.Depends which side of the state line you hang out on
Can’t be too far off thenJust south.
I have to go with Scottie: Masters (best major), Players (5th major, largest purse), Olympics (rarest tournament, get to defend gold on home soil in 4 years), jail, and $28MNow that Scheffler has the gold medal, would you all rather have Scheffler's season or Schauffle's? Or do you think either would trade their season for the other's?
I think I'd rather have Schauffle's. The Olympic Gold is sweet though. I think they're about as equal of seasons as you could have, which leads me to gripe about data golf. These rankings seem kinda stupid. How is Spieth's 2015 not higher than Vijay or Els?

That's fair! I forgot about jail!I have to go with Scottie: Masters (best major), Players (5th major, largest purse), Olympics (rarest tournament, get to defend gold on home soil in 4 years), jail, and $28M
Great question, at some point he would probably trade the money for a major as he’s made so much $$$ the last three years. But right now, today, I wouldn’t if I were him. Feels inevitable he wins a US Open and PGA at some point, his ball striking is so off the charts.That's fair! I forgot about jail!
Do you think Scottie would trade $15mm for another major? I think he would. Olympic Gold for another major? I don't think so after watching him cry.
It does feel inevitable, but Spieth and Rory getting a career grandslam felt inevitable and now it doesn’t.Great question, at some point he would probably trade the money for a major as he’s made so much $$$ the last three years.

He has 5 top 8 finishes(including a runner-up & 3rd place finish at the US Open) in 9 total starts between the US Open & Open Championship. 🤨It does feel inevitable, but Spieth and Rory getting a career grandslam felt inevitable and now it doesn’t.
Also, he’s never won a pro tourney where he hadn’t already played the course in a tourney before. I think his putting is ok but his green reading is really poor. That’s why he is so good at the Masters. It’s the same course every year.
I think he wins Quail Hollow for the pga next year because it’s a tour stop. But part of me is skeptical he’ll win ever win a British open or US Open. Unless he improves his scouting or green reading and I don’t think that will happen.
I know I’m probably in the minority on that take though!
I get it! It sounds crazy to say that he won't. I think I'm crazy too when I type it out.He has 5 top 8 finishes(including a runner-up & 3rd place finish at the US Open) in 9 total starts between the US Open & Open Championship. 🤨
Very fair. Especially considering only like 5 guys have the career grand slam.It does feel inevitable, but Spieth and Rory getting a career grandslam felt inevitable and now it doesn’t.

Wow, I just looked up who all has it. I am shocked Arnie or Watson don't have it. As crazy as it sounds (which I know I'm saying outlandish things in this thread), it almost feels like Scottie has to do it in the next year or two. He definitely could. Everyone else basically did it by 30 or younger. Hogan is an anomaly.Very fair. Especially considering only like 5 guys have the career grand slam.
But also, nobody has had strokes gained tee to green like he has except Tiger since the stat was invented. That’s why I think he’ll get the PGA and US Open but the British is definitely a question mark.
Today was really bad. Almost retired.
