Gotta check back in with the Open Championship, love that tournament
Is one of the better ones but Masters is my favorite.
Totally agree but there's something about the British I really like. I love getting up early and watching it
I enjoy it because the courses look so easy and then whip their asses.  Most U.S. Tour  Courses are too easy for tour players these days and are about nothing but long driving.  Note I said Most not All!
These guys are so good though. I used to go to the Heritage in Hilton Head for years and to see the shots these guys pull off in person with wind conditions, tiny greens, narrow fairways is incredible
They are definitely good but the fun of watching them live is you realize they hit terrible shots too that TV does not show - thus they are human. Difference is they recover better than others after a terrible shot where as we usually hit another terrible shot.  They get pissed off and cuss just like us too. My son played with Dustin Johnson in High School.
That's sweet!  I would always go to the Byron Nelson, love that tournament...best part was them carrying Lord Byron down 18 to watch the final group on Sunday.  Agreed with most things said, when the conditions are nice, that's not when you see them shine...it's when it windy and the greens are slick and their ability to recover that is the difference.
Most impressive to me is their ability to shape shots either way and just how damn hard they hit a driver.  Having seen Dustin hit some 350+ off the tee in high school was damn amazing.  It is like an explosion when the club meets the ball.
Agreed, the sound is so different too!
For sure

I'm real sick of nuts. good morning. I could have slept in or enjoyed a morning cigar.
I'm sick of you mentioning nuts so I can only imagine how you must feel  ;D
I kinda like my nuts, and can't say that I've ever been tired of talking about them.

Honestly I don't see much difference other than the additional children and younger overall  but some of that is hocus-pocus most are teenagers. it has been going on for ages just nobody knew or seemed to care and now they are coming from much further south.  There is a helicopter overhead now, probably news there are more of them than anything else.

Mornin BD!
Good morning Shaun.....  Any thing new going on...?
Well, 2 boxes of cigars arrive today, but that's nothing new.  Got into grad school on Tuesday, so that was a nice monkey to get off my back...now time to study for the GMAT and get registered for classes on Monday!  How are you?
If you were already accepted into school, why do you need a GMAT?  Or does it take going to grad school to figure that out?

The school I chose doesn't require it upon acceptance, but I have to take it before semester 3 finishes(4 or 5 semesters total-based on prereq status and concentration).  If I take it and get X, then I get to skip 3 prerequisites, but if I take it and dont get X I have to take the prereqs...or I can not take it and take the prereqs.
