Cool to see Berger back on form. Good player, mega confidence, and a total character. The Turr needs more guys like that.

@lawrencedonegan @mlhearn One other thing to consider is - my generation of college players who are now scratches...didn't hit it super far. So it works. But this new generation - they ALL hit it 310 - which is a problem when they become scratches at local clubs flying it 310!!

@mlhearn @lawrencedonegan This is actually a very good point. There’s like 5000 people alive who need to play different equipment. Making golf harder for everyone else is silly.

Have gotten a surprising number of texts around this. People REALLY dislike Aimpoint. Both watching it on TV and playing with people doing it.

.@nickkokonas @GolfersJournal Loved the latest pod - excellent conversation. Favorite Parts: “Whenever someone tells you that what you're doing is good marketing, run away, because that means they're not actually paying you what you're worth.” “The Why is more important than the How” “So just like you create music or a theater piece or design a golf course, you create tension and relieve it, create tension and relieve it. So I think the best experiences that we have do that throughout the arts, throughout life, just architecture, all those things.” This is why Pebble is my favorite course and people who say the inland holes are lame are wrong. Shoebox Concept - YES. “Knowing what good is” - Still the best thing about getting to play 1 year on TOUR, much less 9. And yes, specific to DJ, a whole generation was left scratching/contemplating their career choice after playing with him. Realization how much of a grind 1 week on TOUR is - this happens all the time, and surprises me from smart people. Did they think it was like their 2-day Member-Member? But it’s universal - spend 1 week with a player on TOUR and on Sunday the person is like, WOW. Do that 25-30 weeks a year. It’s a lot. But same would be true following any super-successful person for a week. Nick nailed it earlier in the pod, no matter the industry - takes a LOT of work. Goal Setting - Success too easy/too early - “What is success for you?” - Incredibly valuable and underrated - especially by young people.

@JohnEzekowitz @shanebacon @jalmeida12 Slot machines? Aren't both programmed to win 52% of the time? But people still play.

RT @sam_golf: A wrist injury definitely a more likely outcome than an up-and-down from here. Utter sorcery from Cam Davis.

Legend!
It's good to be GOOD. 🏆 For the first time since 2009, @jteater12 is back in the winner's circle at The Panama Championship. After beginning the year with limited status, he's set to chase a @PGATOUR return.

I have a hard time believing Fisher Investments is a fiduciary considering the amount they spend on marketing.
