    PGA tour back in utah for the first time in like 60 years…didn’t exactly draw the A-list of entries…this leader board is about as familiar as a korn ferry event.
    Well it's mid October
    one of these schmucks is gonna win $1.35M. could be my next door neighbor’s scruffy kid.


    Isn't he a country singer?

    with that look, he could/should be.
    Everyone looks like dirt bags these days.  White baseball players are the worst.  I don't know when "white trash" became cool,  but it's annoying.

    This course is pretty cool. Had a work buddy who played there this summer and said it was sweet. Cool visuals

    $750 for Ryder Cup tickets huh?  The greed in golf just never stops.  It's a pretty bad spectator experience too....went in 2012 at Medinah and while the atmosphere was pretty cool you barely see any actual golf.  Crazy.

    With only four groups at one time, it seems like it would be a long day.   I went to one event that had the top 15 in the world and it was cool to see the players out there for a bit, but a half day was enough for me.

    I did the presidents cup at liberty national. To me the key is to find a spot to post up and have everyone come through, then pop ahead a ways and do the same a 2nd time through

    I've entered the lottery for 'The Masters' for a number of years. I've had the same hit rate for this and PJ pit tickets through their lotteries.

    About to start an epic two weeks of golf with a few PJ shows mixed in down under:

    Te Arai (north and south), Cape Kidnappers, Jack's Point, Kingston Heath, Victoria GC, St. Andrews Beach, Barnbougle Dunes and Lost Farm, Royal Melbourne West.   8 flights lugging clubs around.

    Holy shit. That’s fucking awesome. Have you watched the no laying up tourist sauce from Australia this year? If not, something good to watch on the flight. A few of those courses were on it

    Thanks!  I've got a few lessons in and hoping game is trending so I can shoot a respectable 90 - 95.  Will see.  Got a bunker lesson because it feels like every course is gonna be dominated by sand.

    We need to talk about guide lines and such for top golf…this is not serious golf and if you are with a group, you’re probably taking 30 swings at most.

    Can’t be bringing your own clubs

    I have a tough time even justifying people with gloves on

    We do not need to be wearing golf gear.

    As I was walking into the one in NE Philly, there was a guy coming out with his own clubs, a winged foot hat and Shinnecock quarter zip. Just not acceptable

    I agree. Douchebag move. Top golf is not  to be taken seriously.
