    Short Game Thoughts

    Just needed to correct that for you :ROFLMAO: sorry When Puma introduced the one length clubs, I tried a hybrd and I remember thinking it would be great for chipping. I find the long shaft difficult to control for chipping with a standard hybrid.

    10 Golf Myths

    No. There's only 2 variables you can control: how hard you hit it and the starting line. If you don't hit it hard enough to reach the hole you will never hole anything, regardless of the line. If you hit it hard enough you will start to hole some putts.

    10 Golf Myths

    I understand what your saying, but you're equating "never up never in" with smashing it past the hole. And yes we've all seen people do this in matchplay when they have a free putt. Long range putting is all about distance control and leaving it close. 1 foot short is close. But most of...

    10 Golf Myths

    Why? Because this is playing the percentages. Sounds like you have a confidence issue with putting if you're looking to dribble it up to the hole on all your putts. There are only 2 variables when putting: pace and line. Sometimes, you can hit a putt with too much pace, but it catches the hole...

    Yes sound is an important feedback element. Have you never hit a top flite before? Maybe I should go and test this out on the range with some earplugs, I reckon I will be able to feel the difference, especially with the putter.

    Surely you can feel the difference between a top flite and a pro V1. Don't tell me it's just the sound 😆

    Depends on the difficulty of the putt. If I have a 10 footer, I'd probably rather knock it 3 feet past than leave it 1 foot short. For long putts, dispersion is important. I'm very happy to leave it 1 foot short from 60 feet away.

    Never up, never in is factually correct. You will hole 0% of putts that don't reach the hole. A putt that rolls a foot past the hole will drop if it is on target.

    Professional Golf 2024 & 2025

    When these guys hit a rich vein of form, keeping the same feeling is really important to prolong it. Am sure it's largely a psychological thing. At their level, they will notice tiny little things, the feeling off the clubface is so important. Most players tend to hit a hot spell for a couple of...

    PGAT players who turned down a pile of Saudi cash will rightfully feel hurt by this. PGAT has done the right thing to reintegrate Koepka, I guess we shall see if the financial penalty has struck the right balance.

    To answer your questions: How bad am I? Terrible, but so are most recreational players. Should I care? No. As long as you are having fun.

    Best player to have not won the majors

    Ian Poulter would probably put himself at the top of this list. Monty, Westwood, Donald, Fleetwood, Hatton. Why are they all British (and mainly English)?
