re: Week 38 of 52 Golf Thread...@BillyHo_golf edition

My lesson today had an 85% success ratio. I need some range time to work on it. Long story short.....I am fricked this weekend unless I make every putt I look at.

stop putting that negative shite on yourself...I want some confident positive swings through the ball!!!! and for christs sake...have fun out there...

I do give myself hell out there then laugh my arse off when I screw up...

who ever designed those shirts the Americans wore a the 99 Ryder Cup should have been been shot...

I wasn't sure how to respond to that but then I thought of what I wore back in the 70's...

you should probably work on your short game...but in this case....I think you outta get drunk...

"In the past, there have been some notable fashion disasters, especially the 1999 team uniforms, featuring the notorious "pepperoni" shirts — a busy collage of printed images from past Ryder Cup championships that looked as if they had been plastered with stamps or worse. Bad as they looked, they were worn by the American team in one of the most dramatic Ryder Cup comebacks ever."

We asked the members of the team what they did with their keepsake.

Ben Crenshaw: "I've got a couple of them in my closet."

David Duval: "It's in storage in Ponte Vedra."

Jim Furyk: "It's packed with some other memorabilia. I'd auction it for the right cause, but no one has asked. It wasn't a beautiful shirt, but I thought it was cool. It had a lot of emotion and time spent on it by Ben."

Tom Lehman: "It's in a box in a closet. It's a replacement shirt, because the one I wore I threw into the crowd. The guy who caught it put it on eBay. I don't know what he got."

Justin Leonard: "I'm sure I've got it somewhere at home. I don't think it's going to get back into the rotation. We never wear any of those things again."

Davis Love III: "I've got two of those shirts hanging in my closet. I keep all my Sunday shirts when I win. I have two of them, because I wore one to the closing ceremonies, and it got all wet."

Jeff Maggert: "I either still have it or I donated it to a charity auction. I'm not sure. I haven't thought about that ugly shirt for a long time. I didn't think about how bad it looked until after the Ryder Cup."

Phil Mickelson: "I honestly don't know where that shirt is."

Mark O'Meara: "That's a good question. I have no idea where it is."

Steve Pate: "Mine was framed and sold in a charity auction. We got some pretty good money for it, as I recall. I think it went for $5,000. It was either that or use the shirt to dry my car."

Tracey Stewart: "Payne's shirt is hanging in a cedar closet in my home."

Hal Sutton: "It's hanging in my closet in a very accessible spot where I can see it. It's a nice prop for recall."

Tiger Woods: "I threw it in the fireplace over Christmas and burned it. It was sooo ugly. It provided more warmth for the house."

Tiger,

44-38 today. Lol two balls lost in trees. Couldn't find it in tree had to retee. Ugh.

look at it this way...you got that out of the way...
