The original Bushwood thread is overflowing like Craig Stadler's FUPA.

Use this thread to discuss tournaments, swing thoughts, equipment, and golf deals.

I thought we could also use the OP to create a WITB for ChiefsPlanet members. I'll list a poster's name and put their sticks in a spoiler tag, so you can see what everyone is carrying.

The transformation Tiger has made in such a short time is pretty incredible. First time he's had back to back rounds in the 60s in a major in nearly 3 years.

I wouldn't read too much into that. He knows this course better than any other one on tour, save Torrey Pines. It is almost perfectly suited to his game. Even when his life was in shambles in 2010 he still made a hell of a run.

This is a course for a specific type of horse. Nicklaus always scored low here, even finishing T-6 as a 58 year old, and Couples' play in recent years is another good example.

To go from not being able to hit a golf shot to competing with the best in the world in 2 months is a pretty major step.

He was perfectly able to hit a golf shot. He's also spent the last two months practicing non-stop and he's playing a course he knows as well as anyone in the field.

You're talking about a guy who had only made 1 cut in a year and a guy who doesn't even have a top 10 at this level since August 2013. But sure, this was completely expected. :-)

As much as I'd love to see an entertaining finish, I want to see Spieth win his first major more. Golf needs him to be successful.

You really need to stay out of golf threads. You have no idea what you're talking about.

Tiger won five times in 2013 and was the POTY. He was injured last year. Amazingly, he shows up to a course where his career finishes as a pro are:

1, 8, 18, 5, 1, 1, 15, 22, 1, 3, 2, 2, 6, 4, 4, 40, 4 and plays well.

And even if it is "out of nowhere", this happens all the time in majors, and it especially happens at Augusta.

Yes. Golf needs a boring rich kid who specializes in coachspeak and begs every ball.

Oh, please. Listing off Tiger's many accomplishments and history on this golf course doesn't exactly mean a whole lot. Tiger Woods hasn't been that guy in nearly 2 years now. He's been a mess physically and mentally since the start of 2014 and wasn't even able to play tournament golf 2 months ago. But yeah, I'm sure you called this performance. :-)

Golf needs an American star because clearly nobody in this country is invested in Rory McIlroy, yeah.

Phil with the bender on 16. To within 4.

Phil drops a bomb on 16. He needed that. Great putt, great fortune.

Holy tits. First time in awhile I've rooted for Phil

I'm not saying I called his performance, but saying that he hasn't been that guy in two years when he was the POTY in 2013 is intellectually dishonest horseshit, and your posts bespeak a complete ignorance of how important local knowledge is at Augusta, as anyone with a cursory understanding of Masters history knows.
