Henley who?? 3 straight 63's, is this kid for real? Who's going to jump on and try to ride him through a few tournaments for points. You can't always rely on the favorites, time to study up on some new pga tour blood and hopefully make some good picks!

Fairway W: Ping G400 3 Wood w/stock (S)

Hybrid: Taylormade Gapr Lo 3 w/stock (S)

Putter: Odyssey 3T

Ball: Taylormade TP5 X

Why did I not listen to myself? I would have had 32 more points and been in fifth place or so if I did not change two of my starters at the last minute on Thursday. But I am still learning and did improve. Almost cracked the top 10 Saturday night but fell back to 15.

ha i feel ya man. If i would've played CH 3rd on saturday like i planned i would've got 2 more points over Chris kirk on Sat and then 5 bonus points for CH 3rd, 3rd place finish. Would've won outright (i'm sure everybody can make a similiar case). I'm happy with a top 10. Hindsight is 20-20 lol. Kirk getting an 8 (Triple) on #9 didn't help the cause on Sat either.

I was one of three guys who started Jeff Overton today and only a handful of us have him on the roster. I had some inside info on that one. He is from here and not too long ago he was in the pro shot dropping off an autographed Cleveland bag and told the guys about his switch to Adams and how excited he was about how he was playing with his new equipment. He thinks this will be his best year yet. I'm so nice, I thought I'd share that tidbit with everyone, to actually give you a chance at keeping up with me. :P

 

Yea i had Overton in all 4 rounds this week. Hope he has a better year than last. Coming off the Ryder cup appearance i think his and everybody elses expectations were higher for last year. Hope the Eville native puts it all together this year.

A similar case yeah, but probably not as bad. I had CH3, Kuchar, & Peterson on the bench on Friday. My bench scored a whopping 54 points on Friday and my starters scored 26 points. Luckily, I got it straightened out before Saturday.

Yup -- secret weapon alright. Good thing I had him on the bench, otherwise I would have gathered more than 22 points for day 1.

 

Good thing that didn't happen.... :angry:

I employed a different strategy this week. Yesterday it did not work out so well, mainly because I picked Mickelson over Snedecker. But today I am having better results.

I'm doing something right, my team is good enough for 1st in group 2 and 2nd in group 1.

 

 

Yeah, I know, I am hoping to catch and pass you. I started guys who played the North Course yesterday, and guys who played the North Course today. That means all yesterday's starters are on the bench today.

It only takes a couple of missed events or tourneys like this first event that either have wind or rain issues to complete rounds. You can keep trying to see when you can change golfers but some of us have other issues that are pressing or far more important . I kept coming back to try and change my original line up, but by the time I got back to a computer I was stuck with all the original picks. I could have easily had been in the mix the first week, but OH WELL. It's a game. Hopefully we can have some 4 round events and have players who actually say they are playing don't withdraw 10 mins before tee time or WD because they have a bad first round. I don't know how many times that happened to me last year. Here's hoping for a Tiger win this weekend!

Damned the luck. I thought I was going to end up in third but Tiger minor collapse cost me many valuable points. But I understand. It is hard to get into any type of rhythem when it takes more than 4 hours to play 11 holes. Yeah I know they are professionals and do not have anything more important than to play golf I said minor collapse, even par and still won by 4 strokes. Oh well, 5th is not too bad.

I dropped 8 places, because I didn't jump on the Tiger train.

Had my best week yet - remembered to check my picks AND to grab Tiger. Still bottom half of the group, but definitely makes you pay more attention to a wider group of the guys on Tour, forced learning if you will...

 

So true, it brings a different lever of enjoyment, or frustration to watching the game. It is interesting how many have a bad round one day and a good one the next or the opposite. I had a game plan for this course and picked four guys to start that played the North Course on Thursday and my bench was four guys who played the North Course on Friday. After Rickie Fowler short +5 on Thursday, I almost abandoned my strategy. He came back and had a great week that I totally would have missed if I had not been watching him.

 

Also, you notice how the guys move up and down as the day goes on. There is much more ups and downs than I realized.
