Have they restricted it to 46”? I’ve never looked it up bc I’m 5’10”(or was years ago).

The tour does. I think amateur golf allows up to 48”

they need to ban long putters

I’ve never understood why the 46” max club length wouldn’t apply to putters

Who cares what the pros do?

Everyone who watches pro golf.

No one cares about the random weekend warrior 4some. If you want to use juiced balls then feel free or just bifurcate and let ams do whatever they want similar to baseball with mlb using wooden bats and kids using metal

It’s just a problem when every historically great golf course is having to add tee boxes 100 yards back to remain viable because driving distance is out of control and there’s little to no penalty for missing the sweet spot with modern tech.

Look at the scores at pebble this week. It’s a wedge fest on a historical golf course because of where every pro drives it now. Golf would be a lot more interesting to me if pros had to play shots throughout their bag instead of bombing driver and hitting wedge on every hole
quote:

You want the ball rolled back?

Yes, in pro golf absolutely. I don’t really care for amateur golf, but it doesn’t seem like the manufacturers are going to let bifurcation happen.
It don’t always be lie cat but sometimes it do
I'm not sure about best, but Titleists current fight to delay and/or prevent the ball rollback has me really hating Titleist right now.

Response to Seve comment:
I met him once. Caddied 18 holes in his group.
He could not have been nicer and was a class act in every way.

That's a nice anecdote but everything else points to him being a massive arse hole and cheater

Why would he be upset?

Because he's wasting the prime of his career playing on an irrelevant tour that no one watches or cars about and does a poor job of preparing him for major championships

The whole thing looks like a high schooler used AI to make it. Giving the commissioner the most prominent spot is an awful look

Reed, Pat Perez, Kevin Na, and Hudson Swafford all coming back to the PGA tour is a net negative for the tour.

Projected reopening date is September '26. We've had some member meetings regarding course design and progress. If its half as nice as projected, its going to be impressive.


Looks awesome. The architect doing it is the same firm that redid the Pelican Point greens and bunkers.

I'm assuming the course will be open to the public? How much is a membership out there?

It was an existing 9 hole course. Looks like they're redoing the original front 9, adding 9 holes, and adding a driving range. Looks like a massive improvement.

Really hope they don't get rid of the Hawaii swing. Great to start the year with some evening golf

He is an elite special teams coarch. Started as special team analyst at LSU after graduating. While at LSU he plowed his way through sorority row leaving many baws bishless and bagless in his wake, earning the monicore of the Wolf of West Lakeshore

He’s had other stops along the way but now he’s ready to settle in uptown as the Tulane special teams coach

Some are speculating he is staying nearby as LSUS coach in waiting for when Lane retires

The wolf of west lakeshore takes uptown. Coach Chris will have the greenies primed for another state championship and playoff run. His finance is one lucky lady
Incredible hire by the only school in Louisiana to make the 12 team playoff

Big miss by Lane and co. Makes me wonder if he was really the right man for the job.

Congrats to Tulane on the hiring and their 2025 state championship

Putting Mirror

The Putting Mirror really helps me address putts square. It's helped a ton on the shorter putts.

I wonder if there is still another South Korean in the mix & who it could be

Sungjae and Si woo are the only ones that make sense. They're exempt from military service for winning team gold at asian games. The other guys need the OWGR points to qualify for Asian Games and Olympic teams for a chance to get the military exemption. Hard to see any of the other South Koreans going
Puig is a future star imo

Kinda doubt the other two end up doing much.
