re: Wyndham winning regularly is worse for golf than LIV

I like 99% of the players.
Most of them are humble guys that have put in an enormous amount of work.
It's always been that 1% that were not nice guys like a Curtis Strange, etc..

Clark's talent is without question and deserves it's due.
But his personalty is terrible.

Watch some clips of Fuzxy Zoeller address the ball.
It makes you do a inside out swing.
Learn it and you will play great for a year and a half, then you will hunt me down and cuss me because you hook the ball.

Yep, choke down a inch and you should be where you want.
My opinion is yes, it matters.
It doesn't matter what you are shooting now, if you are playing clubs that don't fit you, you can develop and groove bad swing habits that are hard to break.
The proper length and Lie are worth their weight in gold. I'm 6'4, I can't play standard length clubs and I need a 1 degree upright lie after 1/2 lengthening.
The way I look at it, golf is a expensive and hard game . Why not do everything that you can to get the most out of you round.

re: Anyone playing the DS - Adapt line of Cobra drivers?
Posted by bopper50 on 8/22/26 at 1:02 pm to Cool Hand Luke
I agree the reviews are very positive.
Cobra's last 4 models have all been very good.
I play the Cobra Optim X driver and it's been great. Very straight and forgiving.

I don't think so.
You have to look at the overall damage to the PGA Rour brand was done by players leaving and some like Mickelson bad mouthing the Tour.
It's cost the Tour sponsors and tour stops by having to raise the purses to unsubstantiated levels.
We always supplied mini towels, divot tools, tees, ball markers along with a couple of mixed pallets of water and isotonics.
For years we would donate a couple sets of irons for long drive and close to the pin along with logo balls.
I always played in the PGA Tour Houston Pro-Am's before the book keepers took over the company.
The Houston Restaurant Association had the best tournaments. You could get a bowl of crayfish ettoufee on one hole , BBQ, nd fajita tacos on the next with Bloody Mary's.
Plus someone always won a cruise for two in the raffle.
Safeway put on great tournaments at Del Lago where we would spend the night and they would bring in entertainment like the Four Tops and the awesome Danny Gans.

am looking for some distance and forgiveness however that translates to ball flight.
If price is not a driving factor for you, then you won't play a better ball than the Chrome Tour.
If you want a more budget friendly ball that with a urethane cover and technology then the Maxfli Tour, TM Tour Response, Q Star Tour and the Snell P3.
I believe the Titleist Tour Speed is discontinued.
If you really want to get in the weeds spend 15 bucks and do a ball fitting on Pings Ballnamic site.
There are phone apps that you can input your stats and it will give you 3 choices like the Scan My Ball app.

O'Neil was very unimpressive this morning.

Maxfli has the regular, 'S', and 'X' types. If I've read correctly, is the Tour S the lower spin ball for irons and off the tee?
That is their marketing platform.
I have tried all 3 of them.
My opinion only -
The X was hard as a rock to me.
The S was noticeably shorter for me and just fell out of the air.
The Tour is a fine ball. It is still a little firmer than the Tour Response that I currently play.
The TR is discounted to 39.00 right now so TaylorMade must have a new version coming out.
I should know better but the new Snell P3 is intriguing...
I do love the TM Tour Response right now.

It's actually a 2x trade in ($500 max bonus) on the new line of clubs. Hell of a deal if you have clubs to trade in.
I just found that out at PGA Superstore this morning. I got the Quantum 9 wood instead of the spinner 9. Traded in my hybrid and a wedge. My out of pocket was 80.00.
The spinner felt awkward to me.
Damn, that's one ugly cap.
If Rahm agrees to pay 25 million , that should be enough of a penalty for anyone.
Can't blame someone for chasing 300 million , no matter how it works out.
I'm not sad that LIV is going away, the product never appealed to me with the noise, shotgun start and graphics.
It will be interesting if he returns if he can be highly competitive again.

What is a shame is the 90% of LIV golfers that burned bridges and will have no place to play.
The European Tour can only absorb so many.

Biggest issue with high lofted woods is playing in windy conditions..
That is a concern and I do spin the ball.
Hybrids for me are usually such a disappointment . I tried sweeping them and hitting down on them and the results are either lukewarm or left
I guess that I need more research on 9 woods and there is always the 90 day return policy.
