because not everyone is ok to say that they won through long putter


It's actually a feel vs mechanical issue. The best putters have great feel, and their stroke is based on that. Others are mechanical, and their swing is the same.

There isn't one single guy on tour that wouldn't use something that would make him more money and play better.

Thanks for playing though

I'm not sure about this. I think some players are just fundamentally against the long putter.

Ernie Els is fundamentally against belly putters...

WHAT THE frick is wrong with Keegan Bradley? Does he take coke hits every three holes to keep him going? Why is he so spastic? It's not enough that he uses a crutch for a putter. If he acted or moved any faster, I think he would be in danger of exploding.

God he gets on my nerves.

Their strokes are consistent, and that ls it. It doesn't matter if they are mechanical or fell oriented, the only mark of a great putter is consistency.

Wow what insightful analysis pj.
I put the peeej LOCK of THE CENTuRY that he doesn't hit driver on the 5th, 9th and 12th holes also.
I want to see something that makes van-der-velde look tame with Adam scott.

OK, I just finished reading the Sunday papers and have the final count. 23 out of the 25 publications I read have had the headline "Tiger Lurking" in the last 3 days. Do these writers not own a thesaurus?

He's off line. He's probably screaming at Sean Foley..
