Seems like a very good choice for what you’re describing, lots of pros play these in the long irons (often without a contract and some even with a different brand in the short irons) which is a testament to their consistency and performance. Sounds like you are a steep player so the v sole should be great for you. You also likely err on the side of too much spin so if you’re still noticing the ballooning make sure you aren’t playing a high spin ball ( the “X” version except for taylormade) and instead trying a standard ball like the ProV1 or similar.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Koepka stays independent and keeps his Srixon irons in the bag. His strokes gained approach was #1 last I checked and the srixons fit his steep and high spin iron style. Likely going to change back to vokey for wedges, to the pro v1x ball, and the usual revolving door at driver.

I doubt the number 3 player in the world winning the tournament and moving to #1 in the FedEx cup, combined with unique story of helping his brother (who was the #140 ranked player in the world prior to the tournament) reach his lifelong dream, is going to hurt the Zurich’s chances.

However I don’t think it’ll be enough to save it since it was otherwise a contest among nobodies, in a small market, on a subpar course, between major tournaments

As a casual MMA fan, Diaz fights were always some of my favorites. He's fearless and tough, one of those fighters you almost had to kill to get a knock out. He was constantly moving forward and throwing. Fights were always entertaining and generally went the distance.

Maybe lemon was both the win now and the win later pick

I would seriously doubt whether a longer driver is going to benefit you if your driver is at 45.5" or 45.75" as with most modern drivers. That's plenty long for just about anyone and 6'4" isn't enough of an outlier for that driver length to not be a comfortable setup. Going longer may increase your distance potential a modest amount but is also more likely to decrease your accuracy and ability to hit the sweetspot.

That does not mean a driver fitting and new driver aren't worth it even if you are inconsistent, particularly if your driver is more than 5-7 years old and/or not a forgiving model. A high MOI driver like the G440 K Max, Quantum Max, Qi4d max in the right loft and with a good enough shaft fit will likely improve your driving significantly. If you have a faster swing speed or generate more spin then other heads might be better. A good fitter should be able to fit you into a stock shaft, avoid companies that insist a beginner needs a $400 shaft.

Avoid club champion, tour spec, etc. Bebu golf in Nola has always treated me right

The only actual golf I will remember is Anthony Kim destroying Bryson and Rahm in the final round in Australia. That was the best golf moment of the year for me. It was also the only LIV golf I’ve watched.

Haven’t tuned in to any golf channel this am but surprised how little they talked about Burns last night. He played a fantastic moving day round, has power the compete with the final pairing, and is a better putter…

Burns has disappointed in big moments before. He tends to start missing those must-make 4-6 footers. Hopefully today is different, it feels different after playing well in the final group on Saturday

Wyndham's slump might be over, got something new to play for:

You need about a 40% reduction in LDL, just a tiny dose of Crestor 5mg nightly should get you there or very close with that dose. Side effects are usually minimal at that dose. OTOH, for the lowest myalgia risk with a statin you could do 1mg pitavastatin or the lowest dose pravastatin with ezetimibe 10 to get you there. Ezetimibe alone will lower about 25% by itself. Newer non-statin options are bempedoic acid and the PCSK9 inhibitors with the PCSK9 being more potent and an injection. Both can be really expensive depending on insurance but if you’re statin intolerant your cardiologist may be able to do a prior auth and get one approved.

And with your family history and calcium score at your age, I do think being aggressive with lipid management is a wise approach

If another prospect (with this many questions) was opting out of the testing like this……they would be getting DRUUUUUUGGGGG by the sports media.

Tyler Warren never ran for scouts and was drafted 14th at a much less valuable position. He was outstanding when he had a QB
