    It's Nice To Be Up Here In The Rarified Air

    I've always preferred the cult thread but seeing how impressed many are by a certain savant having a knack for 100 post threads, I decided to try my hand. Well, reaching 100 was completely meaningless. But I have to say I didn't realize the huge satisfaction a 1,000 post thread provides.

    You guys should try generating a 1,000 post thread, I think you'll really like how this feels. I'm ok sharing the mantle with whoever else can do this.

    In the news business, this thread would be referred to as "evergreen". Like it will always livejust like something new about the Kennedy's. I was so impressed with the count that I posted just to be the 1001 poster but HH beat me to it. I wasn't too pissed because, after all, it is his thread that you crafted for him. I wonder what the over-and-under is for the next thousand?

    Thanks for the kudos guys-and the 'help' in getting that many. I hadn't noticed how many it was getting to and am/was kinda surprised. The next 1,000? We'll have to see about that! Thanks again guys, and lorenz I'm honored to be in the 1,000 Club with you.
    Now for more important stuff-do you guys use HARRISON shafts in any drivers you've ever had?

    Last year I bought a new Harrison Pro 4.5 regular flex driver shaft and put it into a 9.5* 905R head all the way through. It was a POS with zilch feeling but I only paid $30 for the shaft.

    A coupl of months ago I bought a used Mizuno 001 driver at Golf Galaxy for under $10 only because it had a Harrison Striper J 60 shaft in it and, since I'd read good things about that shaft, I scored the club. The shaft felt like dead meat left in the river for a month in that Mizuno head so I put it part of the way in a 905T head and it still felt like crap. So I guess the bottom line is that I don't think too much of the two Harrison shafts I had experiences with.. But Wait!!! Now I remember a Callaway ERC clone driver I had called the "HERC". It had a Harrison shaft in it and I couldn't hit that sumbeetch either and that was back in the early '90's when I could still swing past 105.

    Thanks Mongrel, I had a driver given to me with a Harrison shaft. I'd heard good/bad/decent things about them, guess I'll have to just try it even though I like the Nike I hit now.
    Another question-I don't know where evrybody lives but I'm in South Carolina/Georgia right now, how the heck do people golf (or do anything) in this heat? I guess I'm just a tee off early west coast guy..........

    NICE post loser! THREE things I admit you have over me-(1) you play in hot weather because McDonalds emplyees can't choose their hours, and (2) your opinion of me is ALOT than mine of you.........and (3) you are the most negative 100% SOB on here-why not be mature enough to just ignore (or admit the topic is above your comprehension) whatever I put on here? The ONLY kind of 'individual' that would chime like you do should be looking forward to 7-8th grade in school. PLEASE-ask your mom for permission before responding/heckling in the future, it will enable us adults to carry on sensible discussions. For the better of the board..................

    This could, in some instances on the forum, be an excellent point, perhaps; but the difficult part is understanding how it comes from you, HH.

    There are a handful or so of regular posters on this forum whose presence can best be explained by the aforementioned posters' respective communities having wi-fi on the "special needs" busses.

    Spank, Yaz, and Larry would obviously be on that list, and frankly, you, too. There are a few more, but they don't come immediately to mind.

    They either go to the coast and play very early or they head inland to the west into the hills and play where it is a bit cooler. All the Harrison shafts I tried were older generation models. It looks like the company pared back greatly on the number of different shaft models now and I haven't read where any notable pros are playing them in their current drivers. I wouldn't expect the company to last too much longer.

    Golf companies are indeed folding left and right, mongrel. What we don't necessarily know is what contracts they have to make proprietary shafts for OEMs. Enough of that could sustain them on a small scale, possibly.

    The big shaft makers like UST, Graphite Design, Fujikura and Aldila seem to have a lot of that market. Any clubmaker who would commission Harrison may likely be on its way to folding also. Not that they were all bad shafts, but like other sort of boutique shaft makers like Graman and Accuflex, they seem to have pared their models way down and the renown poles praised by players in years past are only available as NOS on Ebay or as pulls.

    Thanks Mongrel, I went out this morning before the heat and tried that driver-you are right. I remember Harrison was the latest/greatest (or so they claimed) for awhile a few yrs back, but it didn't work for me.

    I've only run into a few people who thought Harrison was the greatest. Something and Here Comes the Sun were both good songs. He had a few good solo career songs, including those awesome songs he made with the Traveling Willburys.

    The Harrison Striper was huge for a time, but that was quite a long time ago. I think a version of it may have been on the original Adams Tight Lies fairway wood, and I know that they were popular on the forged-to-order Zeider Valiants once used in Long Drive.

    The Hare Krishna thing alienated a few fans though and Harrison was never considered top of the line after that.
    I chose the road less traveled.

    Thanks Nifty, thats where I remember them from, the Long Drive competitions. And the forged-to-order is something 'they' use and we don't.

    Mrs. Harrison is reported to have experimented with the Clapton shaft but had a problem with the Cream that came out of the tip when she really went after it.

    He has the advantage of using POS Nike clubs which allows him to play shots like that 9 iron from behind the tree. He didn't care if he broke that POS club and this allows him to swing freely. Luke Donald could never pull off such a shot with a precious and coveted GFF 9 iron in his hands.

    Tiger has to get his wedge game under control if he wants to win majors again. That SW he hit over the green on #16 was something that a mid-level pro would do. He's got to get that dialed in again. Good win but he could have lost it if Bo Van Pelt hadn't choked up on a SW and then choked again. I liked going with driver on the last hole, though.

    Tiger has already beat jacks record. For tour wi.s which is a better guage of greatness than the majors which are luckg dips nowadays. This win is indisputable proof that tiger is far superior to what jack ever was. Tiger will overtake him in majors too but who cares? Regular tour events are harder to wi. than majors in fat arse's day so Tiger has won 74 events that were more important than jack's miniscule 18 majors.

    Oh boy, this is getting so repetitious its getting funny-I'm sure wood will be the odds on favorite to win The British-just like at The Masters, and at The US Open..............'he's back, he's back', HAHA we'll see at the REAL tourney, the next Major. But wood does have the best chance to win at The British because its so wide open to crappy tee shots. Wail away, it'll come down somewhere............

    Husky, you might want to take 30 seconds to do a little research before you post. This year's British Open will be held at a course that is considered to be the toughest Open track in Europe. Driving accuracy is one of the keys to winning on this course. There are hundreds of bunkers lining the fairways. Woods is one of the few capable of maneuvering around such a course that's frought with peril.

    BTW, where is Colin Montgomery? Has his game disintegrated or did something else happen? Injury?

  32. #1032
    I thought they said that about last years course. Monty? I think he's just too old. He turned 49 June 23rd. Sounds like he's waiting (I went on Euro Tours website) until he turns 50 to join the Sr Tour. He's not in The British this year.

    Okay guys, I know alot of you don't watch LPGA Tourneys (I do when wood is playing in PGA Tourneys), and thats cool. BUT...........when/if you watch The Big Break Challenge, do you think they pick the best golfers-or the hottest ones?

    This has been discussed before, and I think the answer is they take the best golfers above a 5. That means Chung Chang Chou who weighs in at 195 won't get in even if she's the second coming of Annika Sorenstam.

    The only time the producers get it right on that show are the topless massage on the beach scenes. Otherwise, it's unwatchable.

    Time for opinions of players on what bugs them about their home course/club. My personal beef? Our Mens Club has fallen in love with blind draw tourneys-EFFFF the HELL outta THAT crap! How many times do the pro's play blind draw tourneys? Is golf a team or individual sport? Anymore, I just skip that Mickey Mouse BS.

    With weekday golf privileges, I get to skip all the bull$h!t competitions, good or bad. Playing Monday through Friday, I have no complaints with my club at all other than the fact that it may only have one more golf season to exist.

    That, I'm afraid, is my major b!tch, and it's a big one.

    I played a nice weekend "road trip" track yesterday, but didn't know where the flat landing areas were and made mistakes from the tees. I'd like another crack at this one.

    I belonged to several private clubs over the years but never encountered "blind draw" events but I have a feel about what they entail. Now for me, golf is a real simple game: hit the ball from the proscribed teeing area and hit it again and repeat until it goes into the hole. Then tally the strokes it took and write that number on your scorecard. After 18 holes, add up all 18 individual hole strokes and the sum is your score. In medal play, that is the only number that is meaningful. Of course it may be adjusted to a net score.

    The "club" I recently joined has no "home course" and is a qualified USGA club without real estate. We play at local and regional municipal and privately-owned pubic and semi-public courses that are mostly on the lower end of the cost scale. Each event is a medal tournament based on net score. The mix of guys ranges from some young and not-so-young guys that carry low single digit 'caps to some guys with 20+ caps with the majority falling into the 14-19 range. The upshot is that almost any member can win an event. Of course it is harder for the lower caps to do so but it has happened maybe 20% of the time.

    Since I am an old-school kind of player, anything "gimmicky" turns me off real fast. It is my opinion that if someone needs these quirky twists on the classic golf game, perhaps they are bored with just golf and should try another pasttime. If you are enmeshed with men like that, perhaps you should untangle yourself and seek real golf elsewhere.

    I largely agree with but one exception--I like gross Stableford scoring. In pure stroke play, one disaster hole can destroy an otherwise good round. In Stableford, it's just a hole where you didn't get your one point for a bogie.

    As a younger player still mindly interested in competitive golf, I did pretty well in Stableford events.

    Now, except for low stakes fun bets, I compete only against my own expectations, and even then, not so fiercely that I can't enjoy the fresh air, sunshine, and good company.

    I've never played that format but watched the PGA stop in Colorado for some years where they played it. My "club" has an annual "Tournament of Champions" for all members who won a cup-points event during the previous season. Since I already have one W in the bag, I am in. It is scheduled for next April and is a Stableford event modified to account for each contestant's handicap. I.E., a "Net Stableford". I am looking forward to it. Of course I have gambled on the golf course but only skins and Nassau. Greenies and sandies etc. strike me as girly games. I most enjoyed the regular Sunday morning skins game at the last club I belonged to. We played $5 per skin and 17 and 18 were worth $10 each. There was a regular crew of about eight of us and the first four who showed up played. Sometimes the head pro or assistant pro would play with us but we never played net, only gross, and neither pro ever left 18 with any money in his pocket. Playing skins with handicaps is a losing proposition for the lower caps.

    That, I'm afraid, is my major b!tch, and it's a big one.

    I played a nice weekend "road trip" track yesterday, but didn't know where the flat landing areas were and made mistakes from the tees. I'd like another crack at this one.
    Nifty, whats gonna happen with your club? Is the course going to close or what? Whatever it is, sounds like it sucks. Better days ahead...........................
    Go back and whip that courses @$$ next time. I lucked out this week and picked up a Golf Buddy (used 4 times, the guy-a friend of mine, plays one course and knows all the ydgs) for 100.00, I'm sure that would/will help my game in the future on unknown courses like you played.

Then tally the strokes it took and write that number on your scorecard. After 18 holes, add up all 18 individual hole strokes and the sum is your score. In medal play, that is the only number that is meaningful. Of course it may be adjusted to a net score.

    The "club" I recently joined has no "home course" and is a qualified USGA club without real estate. We play at local and regional municipal and privately-owned pubic and semi-public courses that are mostly on the lower end of the cost scale. Each event is a medal tournament based on net score. The mix of guys ranges from some young and not-so-young guys that carry low single digit 'caps to some guys with 20+ caps with the majority falling into the 14-19 range. The upshot is that almost any member can win an event. Of course it is harder for the lower caps to do so but it has happened maybe 20% of the time.

    And thats why I skip these 'games' when I don't like them. One example is-a '4 man choker', all 4 players tee off the 1st hole and after the first hole they take the best net score (eliminating the player who's score they used), on 2nd hole they tee off and the REMAINING 3 players (minus the 1 who's score counted on the 1st hole) are eligible for the 2nd hole, on #3 hole its down to 2 of the players (eliminated another one because they used his score), and the 4th hole comes down to the single player who's score hasn't been used. MY question is-why play 18 holes (in this dumb-@$$ format) when your score can only be used 4-5 times per round? The high 'cappers love crap like this, I'm not quite there (used to be better but AGE is catching up) and will NEVER like this type of game. Mens Club at our course comes up with some doozy's, I always thought golf (minus things like Ryder Cup) was an individual sport. Should (in my opinion) all be individual flighted tourneys so all abilitys have the chance to compete in their divisions rather than limiting the better (I'll admit I'm not one of those anymore) players.

    GREAT idea, I don't think they've thought about that at our course, but I'll suggest it-it sounds like a better format (while still being fair to everyone) than unimaginitive BLIND DRAW team formats. Thanks!

    How does your blind draw work? Do you play in a foursome, then figure out when you're done that your partner was in another foursome? We have a few events where the pro shop makes the pairings, but you always know who you're playing with.

    Its done both ways, sometimes you play with your partners and sometime you find out afterwards. My dislike for these tourneys? If I hit a ball under a tree I should have to suffer, not my teammates. Been on both sides of it (playing great or bad) and theres nothing worse than feeling you let down your teammates. I just go elsewhere to play when they have these formats.

    British Open-remember the name Graehme (not good at those Euro names, although I'm Finn and my last name has 9 digits) McDowell. Who's your pick? It'd be nice if there was a fantasy/contest on here for Majors. I would suck-for instance my darkhorse this week is Stewie Cink, but little games like that are always fun. We know who the 'betting favorite' is so.........GO FIELD! Although if 'he' wins any Major it will be this one-different courses where lucky bounces figure in, or The PGA where its 'that other Major' towards the end of the season. Have fun, and watch early so you can play afterwards. GO FIELD!

    Kids gather 'round here..............hate to tell you this, but the ONLY record of Jacks that tigger wood MIGHT approach is second place finishes. These kids on Tour now don't crap their pants and shank/snaphook/hack themselves out of contention like the money-hungry pretenders of 10 years ago. His ship has sailed............................HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !

  48. #1048
    All in all, the British Open was a great Tourney-the 3rd great one we've had the honor to watch this year. And for the 3rd time this year we had a deserving winner with class. We can only hope that The PGA is as good a show.
    Sixteen different winners in the last sixteen Majors speaks alot about the parity in todays game. 6-8 years ago there were a few players who worked out harder and had better technology (most of it was legal) than the rest but now ALL the players do about the same to further enhance their games, and its really helped the game be more appealing to watch.

    But it's not more appealing to watch. Golf only gets crossover fans when there's a superstar who's always even money against the field.

    Watch for Golf Channel II and Golf Channel III. It's becoming the niche sport that it was before Palmer.
    Once it's clear that Tiger can't compete and isn't being replaced, the major networks will drop golf like they dropped boxing two decades or so ago.

    Agreed. I'll let you know as soon as I want to see the next Webb Simpson or Louis Oosthuizen win. Until then, expect me to be rooting for Tiger or Phil.

    Guys no hard feelings here, but I listened to a interview on how almost everyone I know feels about tiger on 750thegame.com out of Portland this morning. Click on Chad Doing and go to his interview with Travis Rodgers (they start out talking aboput PennState and Paterno) from Yahoo sports, and click up to 7 mins and 30 seconds into the interview. Great stuff, and this is why I apprecite these 16 recent winners instead of.............just listen to the interview.

    Actually (easier this way) when you get to the site (750the game) scroll down to 'Most popular' and click on 'Penn States punishment handed down', it will take you to Chad Doings interview with Travis Rodgers which (at 7:30 in) morphs into what Rodgers has perceived about wood over the years-and me too! Enjoy.................

    Wish all wood fans would take a look at why traditional fans don't care for him.............or is it like Jack Nicholson's famous 'the truth? You can't HANDLE the truth' statement?
    Really all wood fans should consider having their eyes opened a bit to reality. About 7:15 to 7:30 in is where it starts about tiger but really the whole interview isn't bad either. Enjoy!

    Jim Furyk-you gotta love the guy, he's never spit, cussed, farted,etc during a tourney (he was raised by good parents and not a racist), is -7 and looking great now and for next weekend. BUT....................I'm kinda let-down that wood is playing like the hack he is again and I won't hear all the foolish predictions for the upcoming PGA Tourney. Actually I'm kinda worried-maybe he's figured out how to schedule his skanks pertaining to Majors....but NO, even GOD knows! And besides KARMA won't let a racist like him catch Jack. I ave a STRONG feeling I'll be hoisting a few celebrating after the PGA-ANOTHER perfect (no wood) year! Sit back and enjoy.............I don't expect any responses, wood fans are 100% front-runners and nothing else-they're just never-weres that are now wannabes. So just enjoy-and celebrate the next 2 weeks with me. Go Jack, go field!

    Well, he's won events on this course like what? Five or six times? And now he shows up to play with that little Velcro patch on his chin and stinks it up. I find it harder to root for him at all when he fails to do the complete shaving job.

    WOW, where did the tiger lovers go? Spanq, whats up? And nah.....well we know you're not man enough to respond, go hide like the coward you are. I personally thought this was a great Major, with a deserved winner that has class. Whatta year for the Majors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  57. #1057
    And hey wood lovers.........its been FOUR YEARS since he's won a Major, I hope the good times never end!

  58. #1058
    Safeway Classic this weekend-a great Tourney that's in a beautiful setting, come out to the great northwest and enjoy-just don't move out here, okay? Best micro-brews in America, I guarantee you'll have fun-even spanq and nah, after all there IS the Pearl District.

  59. #1059
    Yep, looks like we have the guy who's gonna dominate the sport in the future-I can see Rory winning 1/2 of the Majors for the next 6-8 years, he's simply that good. Just watch him at Boston tomorrow, closing out the Duetsch. A breath of new life on The Tour-and a classy guy too! Good thing he hooked up with the tennis player-she got him in shape and he's a better player for it. Go Rory!

  60. #1060
    OOPS! Forgot this tourney milks into Monday.......but hey, its pretty obvious wood won't win..HAHA. I REALLY wish he would've, I love to see his culls proclaiming 'he's back, he's ready to dominate again'...I laugh like heck at those wannabe-never were fools that think he's gonna get back to where he WAS-it ain't gonna happen! But do me a favor culls-keep posting your hopes, fantasies, and life-clinging dreams you have on here...its VERY entertaining to me! THANKS!

  61. #1061
    YEP......#1 ranked, 3 wins (and counting) this year, soon to win Fedex, Rory-Player of The Year! Hopefully more to come!

    Rory was pretty lucky today. He got some really good bounces.

  63. #1063
    Oh yeah, all luck-I seem to remember a guy who used to win airmailed the clubhouse (no penalty) and then another time had some goons roll a boulder out of the way for him-and he won both times! AHHH...water under the bridge though, Rory deserves Player of Year, better year than anybody else.

    The year has yet to be over. Tiger is 3rd in FedEx cups and first in quality of post round interviews, style and coolness.

    Woods is the goods.

    Rory ain't the story.

    .

    I think I'm beginning to see Tiger's not a bad guy. Yesterday they showed Tiger walking down the fairway sharing a laugh with the geeky sign boy. I was glad to see that. So weren't the guys in the booth. They talked for a long time about Tiger being so giving and so sharing with that geeky kid. A kid probably noone else talked to. Tiger may have saved that kid. A couple of the commentators seemed as though they were about to cry. Johnny Miller talked about being a sign boy growing up. One of the guys who's there to agree with Johnny agreed with him.

    I'm not sure what happened in the tournament while all that was going on though, I think some guy won. Who cares, it wasn't Tiger.

    I thought that was pretty cool. I didn't hear the commentators gushing over it but that's probaby because I was fast forwarding.

    Most of the players on tour like Tiger. He's friendly to his fellow competitors and he's one of the guys. Contrast this to Philly Mick who most on the tour don't like at all.

    I feel sorry for Bones. I was watching the tournament yesterday and while they were showing another player putting you could see Mickelson talking to Bones. He just kept talking, and talking and talking. I'm sure he was enlightening Bones on sports statistics, finances or some other subject in which he's an expert.

    Tiger's all heart. That kid will probably go on to be a CEO or Olympic champion.

    'Most of the Tour doesn't like Phil'-where do you get this? Some tiger bait mag or something you subscribe to? As far as wood talking with the kid-it was on camera, wood knows where the cameras are, and it was ONE incident. You ALWAYS see Phil signing autographs between holes, walking to the 1st tee, and aftwerwards-no comparison in class there, sorry................

    And the commentators weren't gushing because they know that tiger knows where the cameras are and when to put on an oppurtune show.

    Dummy. Everyone knows that Phil isn't liked by other guys on the tour. He's a know it all and a blowhard. Articles have been written about it in GolfWorld, Golf Digest and Golf Magazine. Pick up a book or a magazine and try reading it. A whole new world will open up to you when you read and become educated. It's also been well documented that Phil really likes having the adoration of fans. He's taken on the role of the nice guy to the crowd. It helps him and he needs that kind of consoling.

    Tiger, on the other hand, doesn't go out of his way to make everyone like him. He's well liked by the other players on the tour. This has been clearly documented. Look at how the players react to him when a round is over. They all smile at him, shake his hand like they are friends and laugh. You will not see this with Phil.

    Of course, what Phil does with the crowd works very well for him. He gets their adoration as well as the big bucks in sponsor money. Clearly it has worked on you. He's just reelin' you in son, like the other fish.

    I subscribe to GolfWorld and Golf Magazine-and I don't recall your latest fantasy being in either mag at all. Do yu lay on your bed, gaze at tigers life size poster on your ceiling and dream this crap up? I won't even bring up what quality of person it takes to have the marriage Phil does, and tiger.....................well he wasn't man enough to maintain his. But an a$$ like that is your role model, hope you wise up before you grow up.

  73. #1073
    FD's thoughts today have to include 'I sure wish I hadn't asked HH where Phil was in the Tourney this week, I look really stupid now'. Heh, heh big fella-Phil's in 1st now, and do you think this is gonna be the FIRST time wood will come back from a deficit on Sunday? Good, keep dreamin'..................

  74. #1074
    HEY....FD.............MONGREL, just in case you're wondering and haven't been watching, Phil is tied for the lead at 17 with Lee WW, Dustin J, and Rory.........................and your hero wood is 3 back at 14. Good luck guys, haha. WHERE ARE YOU GUYS, ANYWAY?

    And NOW wood is 3 back, tied with Phil, and has 3 players to pass-just in case you were wondering. If you guys don't have the guts to back up your tough talk from yesterday, then you should give the rest of the board a deserved break and not post any of your BS until woods next Major failure-The Masters. If you ain't man enough to post now, you ain't man enough to post until next April. 'Nuff said........................................

    OH, OH, OH..............Rory just went 4 up to further prove he's the greatest in the world now-so I think you 2 better run and hide (your most endearing qualities) until next April-and thats the SECOND WEEK IN APRIL...........................SEEYA THEN!

    Yeah. OK. Great that its still PGA viewing season for you. NFL's started. Later.
    Mostly Taylormade clubs now except for two Ping I25 hybrids, Mizuno 54 & Callaway 56 wedges.

    YEEEAHHHH, nice bailout.....I've been watching NFL all day today too! But I couldn't ignore you and FD's snotty comments for wood and at Phil after yesterday-I'm just amazed that grown men (assumed) ran and hid like you 2 did. See you in April.......................................
    Back to your bailout-I've been a Packer fan since 1967, what snotty franchise do you root for?

    Damnit-sorry! Your boy wood AGAIN didn't finish it off on a Sunday-I sure hope you turnip-heads don't give up on him-it really peaks my interest on this board, you guys rooting for a has-been like him. Oh, there will be a time-once, MAYBE twice where wood wins a Major over the years but thats about all he'll win-even the younger guys try harder to protect a class guy like Jacks record over a punk like wood. Hope to hear from you in April......enjoy your winter-HAHA..............I WILL!

    I root for multiple franchises. The ones upon which my money is on any given Sunday. 100% so far and Green Bay was not in this weekend's matrix. You must have been a Favre fan. Too bad about his dailiances and embarassing end to a good career. Great record last season. But no game in February. Shame.

    No Puffball, I've been a Packer fan since '67-Bart Starr, Jerrry Kramer, Boyd Dowler, Caroll Dale, Fuzzy Thurston, Ray Nitshcke, Travis Williams, Jim Taylor,...............how far do you want me to go, SON?
    I'm 100& TOTALLY OPPOSITE of a bandwagonner like you, I stick with my teams (Gren Bay, Boston Celtics-Portland Trailblazers, Boston Red Sox, Oregon State Beavers) through thick and thin-I don't have people talking behind my back saying 'he said pittsburg was his favorire team last year and dallas is this year' like you do. To stick with a team in good and bad years is a statement as to what kind of athlete you were yourself..................where did you wear your cheerleaders uniform?
