Has the PGA tour ever had this much parity in any other decade?

Yes, there has been points in time like this. However there might be someone who history sees as a dominate force on the tour right now. What hAs been different is that thier is usually 2 dominate players at a time.

As a golfer I shot 81 today, so I guess I am not a complete hack. Those guys are so accurate it isn't even funny. And long. They are amazing out of bunkers. I think Kegan is here to stay, but I don't know how well duffer recovers. The parity is not good for expanding the game, but it is fun for existing golf fans.
I love how the week after a big golf tournement you can sterotype who is playing the next week by who won the tournement. The worst was the old people post Tom Watson. Pace of play slowed for months.

Btw: if I ever get down to scratch I am going to do a name change request to lsuscratch.

I was a 3 about 5 years ago but dont get to play much anymore and linger around 80. U wouldnt believe just how sick upper echelon high school golfers are much less these guys

We're splitting hairs, but Jack had 3 more majors in him after he turned 40.

He had two when he was 40 in 1980.

Phil's actually 41 now. I was talking from the point forward.

Payne was actually terrible in his 30's.

I know I was saying that the realitive brand, coupled with success of a player we will see over the next 10 years will be like those I listed.

Playing with a guy who plays on the Nationwide Tour will blow your mind. Playing with a top echelon PGA tour player would be ridiculous.

Just to add, I've played with a Nationwide player before and hitting after them made me feel like some kind of retarded mongoloid oaf. I'm not a terrible golfer, well maybe sometimes, but hitting after that... no thank you. We actually played in a scramble together - want to know how many of my shots we used???

yeah, it was like watching a golf machine, didn't matter whether it was a 9 iron or a 2 iron - every shot had the same flight pattern. Sick.

There are thousands of guys who can hit the ball the way the pros do.....it's the putting that makes the difference. In a good round I'll make 2-3 putts over 10 feet and make half of them inside 10 feet, averaging around 30 putts a round and hitting fewer greens so i have a lot more up and down chances than a pro. A pro will make 5 or more putts over 10 feet in a round and will make 80% inside 10 feet.....so they rarely take 30 or more putts in a around AND that's considering they hit 75% off the greens in regulation.
