  • 5 stars without Mark, 1 star with Mark

    Re-instated Ams are bad because they abdicated their amateur status when they chose playing for money. I agree with Lou, if you have no success, you can come back. If you hold a Tour card, you are the best 125 players in the world and should never be playing against orthodontists again. Sorry, there are still local pro events where you scratch the competitive itch. As to my title, Mark cannot tolerate anyone who doesn't agree, he just railroads people who disagree, thus why he thought Lou agreed... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Tiger on the Champions Tour?
Q: What are your thoughts about Tiger playing Champions Tour?
Mark kicks off with optimism about higher prize money and increased attention, while Greg emphasizes the strategic and health considerations, the potential business upside, and how Woods' presence could change the dynamic for the tour and its players.
SMS - 5 Index, 40/100/180 Yards, Break Even SG Proximity
Q: How close do five index players need to hit it from 40 yards in the fairway to break even on strokes gained on that approach shot?
The team estimates around 14 to 26 feet in this setup, with the final answer being 14 feet, illustrating how even small proximities can determine break-even performance for mid-handicap players.
Improving Strike at Full Speed
Q: Speed is king, but how do you maintain center strike when maxing out speed?
Lou explains that you should not fixate on contact distance during speed training; instead, work on maximizing club head speed and then analyze center contact separately, adjusting loft and path as needed to maintain accuracy.
Driver Angle of Attack and Path
Q: Michael asks whether the contact point on the arc after the apex would imply an out-to-in path when trying to hit up with the driver.
The consensus is that to hit up with a zero or in-to-out path, the swing direction may look more inside on a 2D camera, but the overall swing can still produce an upward attack angle; visual tools like a tilted hoop or pencil can help align your perceived path with the actual path, and there's no single correct visual indicator—understanding the relationship between swing direction and path is key.
SMS - Top 10 Tour Pro vs Sub-150 Tour Pros, Greens Hit from 175
Q: What percent of the time are the top 10 players on the money list hitting the green from 175 yards in the fairway?
The top 10 group hits the green about 66.8% of the time from 175 yards, with the 125–150 group around 66.1%, indicating only a small gap between these groups.
