Well, if you are a member of champions let’s roll. Otherwise we can do The Marriot. If KRJ shows up you can just buy the drinks for us that round.
I have been thinking about getting a Apple Watch, Galaxy Watch or something along those lines. I definitely want one that I can use a good golf app to get quick yardages on my watch without having to pull up the app on my phone. Anyone have one and if so what brand is the watch and which app are you using?
Played there last weekend. It's in fantastic shape
Crazy that Zalatoris isn’t technically on tour and is ineligible for Tour Championship and auto qualifying for Ryder Cup
Not that impressive by today’s standards. The 2 iron didn’t even stay on the green. The pitching wedge from 184 was straight down wind and he knew it was a flyer lie. Dudes like Robert streb and Andrew Putnam do that every week now.
I play Wild Turkey pretty regularly. It needs time for the bermuda to come in but the greens are pretty nice.
Verifying hands and arms move in unison with shoulders
Get your arm swing and pivot in sync
By Dan Carraher (iteachgolf), GolfWRX Featured Writer One of the largest problems most golfers face is the hands and arms not moving in sync with their pivots. This causes all kinds of issues with both how they will pivot and the ball flight that will result. I see far more golfers whose arms mov...

‘When the arms swing too slowly, two general things will happen: The arms will end up too far behind the pivot (common with better players) or the arms won't work down or forward fast enough and will be carried too far out by the pivot. These moves create two different results, but the root cause is the same. As a compensation, many golfers will either pull their arms across their bodies in an effort to get their arms back in front (the case of arms being too far behind the pivot), wiping across the ball and steepening the angle of attack.’
understanding what Early Extension is and how it kills distance:
Use this easy drill to prevent early extension in your swing
Early swing extension is a problem that plagues a majority of golfers, but with this drill you can stay in your posture throughout the swing.

‘Seventy percent of all golfers suffer from early extension, but 99 percent of Tour players don’t. That should tell you something about how damaging this swing error really is. Described in simple terms, early extension is any movement of your lower body toward the ball, relative to its starting position at address, during the swing. The most common iteration of early extension occurs between the top of the backswing and impact, when a poor weight shift or sequence forces your torso to rise up. As your upper body pulls away from the ball, your hips and legs thrust toward it. Expect an uncontrollable two-way miss along with a heavy dose of skulls and chunks.
Before you can correct early extension, you must determine whether it’s due to a physical limitation or a technical issue in your swing. When early extension is the result of a physical issue, it usually means you have limited mobility in your ankles, knees, hips and/or spine. It’s one of the reasons it’s so common for recreational golfers, because they spend more time sitting behind a desk.’
Shallowing on downswing to maximize distance:
Shallowing the golf club means that you get the club to flatten out more horizontally on the way down. Most golfers instead, have an over the top, casting motion which leads a steeper plane on the downswing. ... Some other flat golf swing benefits include: Compressing your irons and wedges.

Ko is 24 and has 16 on LPGA tour and 5 on Euro. Quite amazing.
It is the perfect event for this time of year, vs just another mid level tour stop.
The Zurich Classic was a dead in the water tour event until they changed it to a team event. Very smart on their part. I think if they would have a team event that had the best LPGA players paired with the top PGA players it would be a huge success and add a lot of interest to the LPGA tour. The caliber of women players today is outstanding.
Good info for the club junkies...

That is even a better idea, especially if the women play the up tees, would definitely bring more strategy into play. Plus could see some really hot arguments between partners, just like husbands and wives or BF/GF. Could get interesting really quick.
This is why they chase their dreams....they do come true.
