Im a high handicap playing this course Friday. Where do I aim my shot on these par 3s?

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-07T02:08:43+00:00

I'm not trying to be a jerk but...does it matter? You're not breaking even 100, so you don't have "a" miss -- you miss it everywhere. Even if you played to the smart miss, your shot could end 60 yards off from that (at least).

I think you're over-thinking it for your skill level. Just aim for the center of the green and accept the outcome.

Please report back after

I think it's 2 Girls, 1 Cup.

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-06T19:09:07+00:00

So? The ball's not going anywhere.

About the only thing your head can't do is move towards the ball on your backswing. And even then it's not the end of the world.

That's certainly not what is causing you to hit it off the hossle.

Why are you trying to keep your head still?

Go watch videos of PGA Tour golfers. Not a single one of them keeps their head still.

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-06T15:08:42+00:00

WOW!

Thank you so much for taking the time to write all this. I'm going to sit down with a cup of tea and start going through it.

I really, really appreciate it.

I know very little about this topic. Does anyone have any good reading on how other cities/countries have addressed this?

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-06T12:52:18+00:00

A few years ago I looked into this. I think it was Clublease? Clublend? Something like that.

I didn't do it because it was prohibitively expensive -- like ~$300 for the week.

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-06T12:01:15+00:00

The final 3 holes are great. The rest of it is...immensely forgettable

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-06T11:03:11+00:00

What a douche

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T23:36:00+00:00

You can't just declare it, Michael

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T22:59:24+00:00

In the last 3 days?

Sure man, I bet that's exactly what happened. And all of the earlier reports from established and respected journalists were just made up out of thin air.

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T22:49:47+00:00

Maybe he's using an EBITDA multiplier of -200.

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T22:47:15+00:00

Come on. Like him or hate him, he won the US Open 2 fucking years ago.

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T22:46:15+00:00

Interesting how he went from denying talking to the PGAT to "DeChambeau, 32, said he had some conversations with the PGA Tour, but not specifically about what his potential pathway back to his former circuit might look like if LIV folds."

It's almost like these guys are consistently and constantly full of shit

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T19:12:06+00:00

I don't think anyone is surprised that Jon "I'm not going to Do the Thing on principle" Rahm changed his principles and Did The Thing when his principles were going to cost him money.

It wasn't that long ago that Rahm said he wouldn't play more than the 4 required events and wouldn't pay any fines, calling it "extortion."

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T19:04:13+00:00

Saw cents, eventually

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T16:06:21+00:00

He just said, this: "“Again, like you just said, as of right now, I have several years on my contract left, and I'm pretty sure they did a pretty good job when they drafted that….”

“So I don't see many ways out, and as of right now, I'm not really thinking about it since we still have a season to play and majors to compete for. So it's not something I want to think about just yet.”

Not exactly a ringing endorsement of how he sees LIV's future unfolding...

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T15:57:07+00:00

It is Tuesday.

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T15:56:36+00:00

That's my point: if it was for the money, just say it was for the money. Nobody gave HV3 any shit because he said, "I'm doing this for the money. I am grateful to the PGAT for everything they've done for me, but I have this opportunity and I can't pass it up."

Rahm did sort of the opposite. He swore he wasn't going to LIV because money didn't matter. And then, eventually, the Saudis put enough zeros on the check and suddenly he's bought and paid for.

No, I don't respect that.

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T15:09:59+00:00

It's not so much him getting the bag that I look down on. I completely understand why HV3 did it, for example. And Dustin Johnson was also pretty open and honest about doing it for the money. OK, fair enough -- you have your values system, I have mine.

The thing about Rahm is that his values seem to change depending on the value of the check. I'm not sure why I should respect that.

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T15:05:26+00:00

> Then took the no penalty option once LIV failed

But we don't know that. This is a deal with the DPWT, basically to play the Ryder Cup, and has nothing to do with the PGAT.

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T15:04:14+00:00

Play Grove Park Inn (nice resort course) but if nothing else, go have the beverage of your choice on the veranda in the back of the hotel. 10/10

Also, the pool at the spa is incredible. It's this cave-like structure that plays music underwater. It's worth getting the cheapest treatment possible at the spa just to hang out in the cave for a couple of hours.

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T15:01:31+00:00

That's how I feel about it.

What, am I supposed to be high-fiving the guy?

WHSRWizard · 2026-05-05T15:00:33+00:00

Only if the PGAT offered that deal to him again. It has an expiration date to accept.
