Hope the women's tournament next week is more exciting than this one.

Why doesn't Fowler have a driver/woods in each color to coordinate with his attire each day

It would be good marketing for cobras assorted color line

I don't think you can change out clubs during the 72 holes unless one is damaged.

So does Kaymer suck all the fun out of this tournament by continuing to kick arse.?

I assume the USGA has stopped watering.

I don't think you can replace it during course of play. After the round, I think you can replace it.

I wouldn't bet more than a quarter on my opinion.

I know the equipment trucks for the mfgs all leave the tour sites by Wednesday night to avoid any conflicts. But a quick scan says you're correct.

Because he has it honed in to his ball flight and spin. He can have 100 of the same shaft and get different numbers. Specially when the shaft gets a tad weaker after practicing.

You've got a friend playing this week? That's pretty legit.

I think a legit 1 handicap would have a better shot a breaking 80 on this us open course than any other recent venue. Fairways are wider, and you have a much better chance of advancing the ball from the sandy brush than from the normal 4 inch rough.

He told me any other month of the year, yes I could, with ease. Where the problem lies is the firmness of the course and not playing firm, fast conditions week in and week out.

Jk, dude is good. He could probably beat me with just a 7iron.

I'm not taking that into account.

I just read through the "what would you shoot at Pinehurst" thread, and I must say, this board is made up of some dumbasses. I got a good laugh at the single digit guys thinking they could break 90.

I can barely break 90 in the BR Open so I'm well over 100 at Pinehurst.
