I know its not the greatest score around, but for me, I was jacked. If I didn't smoke that rock n roll cigarette to start the back 9, maybe could have been better 8-)

Nice round. It doesn't matter what the number is when it's a personal best.
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

Saw the preview for that on his last show. Crazy! I don't care how good the golfer is.

When are the R & A and the USGA going to ban the long putters? Get on with it and ban 'em.
I'm kind of getting tired of the same old questions every week.
Firestone South course starting today.Nice track.

I may be wrong, but I think the long putter that golfers stick into their gut are banned next year.

Edit: I was wrong. In discussion. Rule change would take effect Jan 1, 2016

Thanks for the info ^.
That still gives Ernie a little more time to get a few more wins under his belt. 8-)

I don't know what's worse being paired with a bunch of hacks playing the tips or being stuck behind them. :fp:

:? I don't see why that's a problem? Are they saying it's an unfair advantage? Anyone can switch to gain the "advantage" if they want to..
