Skins Game, what a show!
just back from the skins game at the tempete in Quebec, pretty much my back yard:

-couples
-ogilvy
-poulter
-garcia
-weir

Awesome stuff, first time i see actual pros live, it was awesome. Couples really hits it long out there, longest of the group most of the day. Garcia was a croud favorite but Poulter has alot of game.

I was not surprised by the distances but rather the height of the trajectorys even in the wind. When these guys take out driver, its like someone drops 5 balls in a 20 foot circle all day long, winning on tour must be exceptionnal with all that talent out there. Ogilvy took home 150 000$ as the winner, couples second.

one for the books!

they televised the first nine holes tuesday night and last night was the second nine. They are human after all, they had no more in the tank the last few holes, after last weeks long tournament, it caught up to them for sure.

as for the swings, they really swing hard, even couples. they all seem to load so quickly from the getgo, it is surprising. Shit ive analysed so many slomos of these guys for years, but seeing it live, you can learn alot.
