re: hardest pitch to hit
Posted by Username1 on 8/26/13 at 5:44 pm to tonyperkis
Backdoor slider that almost hits your back knee. By far, the toughest pitch in baseball.

The question isn't as much "would he be better with the Scotty or the Method?" I think he could put with an off the rack Wilson and still be exteremely competitive... The question is, "why did he switch to begin with?"
Tiger, the Car Wreck, and the Nike Method
Posted by Username1 on 7/21/13 at 6:45 pm
Floated the idea at lunch that a struggling Tiger Woods is playing the Nike Method over the Scotty Cameron, because Nike told him too.
Here are some interesting stats:
Tiger from 2012:
Putting from 10-15 feet: 134th
Putting from 15-20 feet: 182nd
Putting from 15-25 feet: 82nd
Putting from inside 5 feet: 40th
Tiger from 2006:
Putting from 10-15 feet: 46th
Putting from 15-20 feet: 6th
Putting from 15-25 feet: 8th
Putting from inside 5 feet: 28th
Based on the stats, he is a lot better with the Newport 2, with the blacked in Ping grip. I can't say that he would be a better putter today with the Scotty Cameron or that he would have had a better day at The Open Championship, but is it unreasonable to think that post hitting a fire hydrant that Nike renegotiated their contract with him (due to a better bargaining position) and told him that he had to play the Nike Method putter?
I think his first tournament back, he was putting with a Nike Method and not the Scotty he won 13 majors with? So, is it plausible that Nike said play the Method, or else?

I've got an opportunity to play BRCC this weekend for the first time. Any tips or advice concerning the golf course? (ie, don't go left on number 4, etc.) Thanks..
First Time Watching Star Wars?
Posted by Username1 on 11/26/12 at 6:07 pm
I am showing someone Star Wars for the first time. What order? 4,5,6,1,2,3 or 1,2,3,4,5,6? And is there anything they should know before we start?
