There was a big turnout to hang with Daly! Set up some kind of putting green. A good time was had by all! 12 minutes ago, The Senator said: Watch him put four straight tee shots into Lake Michigan, then throw his club in the lake... . HAHA! What a souviner!

Augie Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Looks like I might get up earlier than usual tomorrow. I’m actually glad I don’t have Sunday passes. An “imaginary internet friend” (as my wife refers to you people) from my college hoops board went yesterday for the first time. He posted something I agree with, without ever having thought about it before. Going to Augusta National is a very real bucket list item. I am THRILLED I got to do it once! But golf is 1,000 times better on TV. When I lived on the 10th green I’d the Harbour Town course (site of the PGA next week), I watched almost ALL of the golf on TV. It’s just better that way.

It’s just better that way. it is the one sport i absolutely say is better on TV. Was at the 99 OPen for the weekend at Pinehurst. Miserable weekend 1) No goal game was Saturday..had to hear my MIL all day Saturday say she could not understand why I was leaving the US OPen early to go watch some silly hockey game on TV 2) Sunday was cold as balls, did not have right clothing, too cheap to pay $200 for a US OPen jacket, they did not start serving beer till noon, and then unexpectedly stopped serving at 5.00PM with a good ninity minutes still left to go!!!! Could not see what the leaders were doing..parked on the 17th hole..saw Payne and Phil play 17th..crowd so big watched Payne's famous putt on some makeshift projected screen 100 yards away from the green. The whole day sucked. 3) Now the Masters screwing my whole day all up. Have a fresh ham smoking, lots of people coming over to watch Sunday afternoon golf on the porch...a little lightening strike never hurt anyone, at least not enough to ruin my plans!

eball Posted April 14, 2019 Author Share Posted April 14, 2019 Molinari is freaking unflappable. Not playing great by any means right now but 6 straight pars including two monster saves. If not for Francesco you'd be looking at 12 guys between -8 and -10! Still a lot of golf left, but it doesn't look like Molinari is going to come back to the field.

Well, trees are 90% air, so it shouldn’t be a problem getting out of the woods. Question on sine I haven’t played or followed golf closely in a while, why is it ok to leave the pin in when putting from the green? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flagstick may be left in while on green. Statistics suggest you should leave it in, but most pros still take it out. When I'm playing I've been leaving it in for putts of 10 ft. or more, then taking it out for the short ones. The other "big" new rule in 2019 is taking a drop from knee height rather than shoulder height. 1 hour ago, K-9 said: And just like that, Tiger in trouble off the 11th tee. And just like that, he makes it look easy getting out of trouble. No, it's complete b.s. Tiger would have lost four balls today on any "regular" course. August has very few areas of true "trouble."

Doc Brown Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 WTF? I spend all morning working in my garage getting it out of the way to watch the Masters and there's only two holes left?
