Thanks for setting the bar for me!
Maybe a touch, interestingly I thought my 27th putt was one of the best ones I hit, but it looks like someone flat out blew me out of the water.

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)

Is this the same RWH I met a few years ago on the range???

Really well done.

Did you cheat and use a hitting stroke?

What's a matter the ADD kicking in real bad? Just take some more medication.

I know you're used to going around in circles (Come On! You teed that one up )

The point is that once you know the putt- then any miss would be stroke related. That consistency of putt- allows you to isolate issues in the stroke.

Regarding your last question- for me - three! But what's that got to do with putting!

Don't worry MAC- we've been dealing with him for awhile now. In fact, realizing that you have to work with him- most of the forum members kicked in some money and you should have a gift delivered soon. I think last year we bought his wife a Mercedes- you probably didn't see it though- as I heard he traded it for a set of clubs on ebay. Make sure you are the first one to get the mail all next week- I wouldn't want any somebody to prevent your package from getting to you.

Bagger,
That was MAC's 6th post - go ahead and email him the secret password- he's now official.

Finally, MAC - RC says he won't write any insurance on buildings in California- what's he worried about "a little earthquake?!"- maybe you'll be able to handle my insurance needs.

I hear ya! But remember that it's not a competition to win. This is to see how much you can improve your best performance. Tiger shoots 22 under- but you don't say that's it I'm giving up the game!

Besides- I have a solution for everyone- since I am controlling the rules- we'll just bar this thread from all attorneys! That'll get rid of RWH's record.

OK bagger, put another lock on this thread for attorneys. Let's see we've got Brian Gay, Jeff Hull, Ted Fort locked out, all Hitters are locked out , and now all attorneys. I may need to have further names and categories added in the future!

With all of that said- I'm still at 11 and need to get to the putting green.

Excellent Bob!

I told you that Hot Wheels track would work great!

Neil told me privately that you really need to make sure the tracks don't separate over time- that's my guess on why the string ended for you!

Seriously Bob- Hit me with another post that you really did have 73- I thought 26 was out of my reach - 73's on another planet for me.

Mmmmmm hmmmmm . . . last time you got somebody to handle your NEEDS . . . you ended up in a turkish prison with picture of Elvis shaved in all that hair on your back. A Port-a-Let is not a building and neither is a hampster cage.

At your service. Hard to believe it's been 2 years.

No hitting stroke for me on the greens anymore; threw it out with my steel-spiked Foot Joys.

It's true - 73 in a row.
