@HipCheck calls that a regular Thursday afternoon.
I mean, if we can’t get to 10.2, then what are we even out here playing for?
I’m not a data dude, but the pix seemed rushed. Then changed the following season because…well, I don’t know. But it went from a pattern of comic book explosions to today’s Illuminati. Not sure what we’re doing there. And that’s not even talking about performance.

I always thought full marathon runners look at that those stickers and think "wuss."
F bombs are a celebration of our freedom.
OMG I forgot about that. That’s a tremendous find!
meanwhile, the rest of the world looks at them like
It pays to be getting old!! hahaha
If I had one of these, it would be my golf handicap!
I will run from cops and bears. Not necessarily in that order.
No photographic or video evidence? Like NASCAR, I’m here for the wrecks.
meanwhile, you’re over by the cart all opcorn:
Social media has made golf flip outs a thing.. Many posting staged tantrums and club toss/break/lake tosses. I actually kind of hate it.
This happened years ago. Prior to iPhones. You know, the good ol’ days.
Shade thrown. BOOM.
I guess maybe Bryson has a better story.
I can’t believe Rahm is #2 in the world still. It’s an OWGR thing, I guess.
wrong podcast…listening to the correct one now….lol
1. Bryson to me is a fad that is wildly popular right now and getting the desired results. I understand you want to capitalize on his success, but his personality is off putting.
2. I don’t care what tour pros are playing. Many of us here know that what they play isn’t on the shelves at our local PGA SS. I am sure what the pros play drive traffic for OEM’s, but no way am I going to go looking for Bryson’s drive, Tigers irons or Rickie’s ugly pix ball.
3. Also players are always tinkering, and I think will usually go back to a club or set of irons that had good vibes for them. Are they doing their OEM’s any favors playing older equipment, probably not, but when they are trying to bank millions each week I’m not going to begrudge them for trying to find that edge. @Canadan mentioning Spieth is the perfect example.
4. Rahm and Bryson are the same type of angry golfer IMO, just showing it differently. Both are douches and both have done damage the the course. Rahm recently and Bryson at the 2019 Mexico WGC. Then Bryson berates a cameraman for doing his job last week which imo is 1000 times worse than what Rahm did. They are both right up there with Reed and cheating.
When ya playing slow, you gots to go!
#PainTrainWooWoo
That guy is overrated.
@e1iterate is Rahm…
Very passionate golfer…
well… yeah.
Thank you. I’m so out of the loop. Had no idea what those were all about. Of course, I have no desire to run anywhere or any time.
13.1. Fitting. Halfway to hell. #Triskaidekaphobia Episode 13? I might have to sit this one out.
I care about as much about the car the pros drive as i do their clubs… their game is soooo far advanced than mine. I like what I like based on performance, optics/reviews and of course THPers comments.
Players games are so dialed in and they hit thousands of golf balls. I think if they want to try something for a few range sessions maybe pro/am or televised round it would be so easy to play around and dial in the exact feel or performance they want. I wonder if they try other OEMs stuff to say I like this but I dont like this – make me something similar. As I mentioned in Rickie posting- When times are tough trust is a big thing… you go with what has worked to remove doubt from the game. I think that is what
Tantrums? hmmm maybe an F-Bomb here and there never tossing a club or destroying the course… As far as childish behavior 1 time is a good rule of thumb. I also agree that drunken behavior matches this for non-pros… dont be a richard.
Great podcast this week guys! Enjoy the weekend @Canadan @HipCheck @JB

Yes.
Cleared the hips well.
Bo Jackson could. Bo knows golf
He broke a bat over his head. He also snapped a bat over his knee after striking out.
Back when I was writing code for a large development group, you had a LOT of coders modifying components daily. Had to be sure to merge changes with others, otherwise you could "break the build" when the code was compiled for production.
If you "broke the build" you we required to wear the "hat of shame" for 24 hours. This was it.
