Hopefully she didn't attack him with a 9 iron! Just having some tiger flashbacks!

There's a lot of gossip in here. So where do the men post?

He was an embarrassment as a putter this season and THAT, not the move to Nike irons/wedges/driver killed his season...and the stats show that.

The few times that he put his Scameron back into play, he was still bad at putting. hopefully that ability didn't vanish on him.
Its his achilles heel right now when you look at his stats. Plus, how many 3-4 footers did he miss this year, it was insane.
It was downright painful. If I remember right, when he did miss, it wasn't lip outs either. Combination of bad reads and bad mechanics really made it a house of horrors for him on the greens. It wasn't the putter itself, despite what anybody wants to say.
He didn't have a bad year driving the ball. His iron play was alright. he just couldn't putt.
I agree it was the flatstick that let him down, but I'm not dismissing changing putters and the ball as at least a factor in his putting woes. I know switching between balls can, at the very least, cause some speed differences which may have cause a few missed putts early on. Think about how long it takes you to build up confidence in those 3-4 footers, and how quick one missed tap in can shatter any good feelings over those putts. I have a feeling the change affected his early season performance, and it was mostly mental after that.

I agree to an extent, but some of those misses were more than just a lip out or edge burning miss, some were 1-2-3 cups right or left, from that distance, I don't think the ball plays as much of a role in a miss like that. Sure it takes and adjustment, but those were some GLARING misses.
I think he needs to move to a Bridgestone ball like Tiger. JMO though.
getting rid of the RZN ball could certainly help him. Tour D is where it's at.
I honestly can't believe they're sticking with the RZN thing, it has improved, but sheesh.
I played a One Tour and Tour D yesterday during my round. If I do it, Rory should.

Clearly. You're the Deano. Duh.
maybe he should switch to s55's too. Unleash his inner Jamesman
Heaven help the golf world if that were to happen!

oh man. Imagine that? I hope Rory has a strong year next year. Doesn't need to win majors, but a strong campaign with a couple wins would be really good to see.
Are you saying that switching balls affected his speed on the greens?

I've said it a lot about the ONE RZN X. It is expensive. Not urethane. Clicky. Not durable. But they perform like a mother. I have one in my bag that bounced off a cart path, has a flat side, two other wedge scuffs. I just can't help but hit that thing straight, somewhat far, and hold greens. I don't play it often because I don't want to lose it. If the ONE RZN was in the sub $30 range, it would be my full time gamer.
