    Tigers advantage has been in his putting and having the guts to pull off the big shots at the right time. I doubt that there is anybody on the planet who knows more about Tiger's game than Tiger and more about the golf swing as it relates to him. He has probably watched his swing more than a million times. So why is he now in limbo? Maybe he is strarting to realize that he is a different person. The public humiliation he suffered would have left a scar or two on his psyche and it might be that at this stage of his career he needs to make changes. I never thought that he would change putters and he probably wouldn't have if his private life had remained hidden. Moving to a Nike putter would have been a token to Nike for staying with him when others were cutting the cord. Now that he has changed some of the magic has gone from his putting. He has pulled off some amazing and unbelievable shots over the years and I'm betting he will be back in the thick of it in the near future. He is just that good.
    Consciousness and awareness - awareness is being aware of what is happening and being aware of what is happening within ourselves while we are conscious. Where did I leave my glasses?

    3. His distance control with his wedges was inside 10-15ft all day long.
    Agreed, especially with his putting inside 10ft. He was better than a machine. At that level, it's all about turning three shots into two (or one).

    I see that Tiger is still GAAAAAAWWWWNNNN !

    Chipped and putted like a muppet.

    THAT shot on the 19th was an awesome repeat of the shot on the 2nd, with an iron !

    Whatever he is doing - it is not working...

    Yep, he should do a Badds & get rid of his coach & his dud swing. Tiger is in the doldrums & it's painful to watch.

    Simmsy was telling me about the video on SITD with PP and Elk.

    Look in the video vault for this: "PP Playing With The Cat" - Episode #372.

    OK,

    Tiger is starting to get a groove - he can finally move the ball left to right with some control.

    Now - let's see if he can find his short game... and the amazing talent of missing 1 putt under 4 feet all year . . .
