    Biggest shock of the year so far...

    has to be that couples is 9th in tour driving and tiger is 16th. THe difference is only 2.1 yards but its still pretty shocking. Anyway else shocked by anything this season so far other than how good JB holmes and Cmailo are?

    I just miss my boy Payne, this would have been his first year on the Champions Tour I believe.

    Ames winning the Players was actually very shocking now that I had a few seconds to think about it.

    Payne Stewart... If he was alive, he'd be on the Champions Tour.

    Another shocker... the lack of respect wie gets but camilo.. everyone loves him. He hasn't won anything either and its first year as a pro as well. Wie almost won a major and is having a better season so far than camilo one could argue... but I guess once could argue that he is having a better season. So I'm guess I'm a little shocked as the lack of respect she is getting compared to the respect he is getting...

    No real shock there... they don't call Freddie 'Boom Boom' for nothing...
    What is a bit surprising is that he is doing it with a 510TP... a 3 year old 390cc driver....

    Payne would probably still be good enough to golf both tours. I'm sure even at fifty he'd compete at the US Open. No one was better then he was at that major.

    Please don't bring up Wie again... P L E A S E!!!

    How about how JB won his first tournament? He destroyed a good field.

    Guys, guys, guys, the biggest shock of the year so far is that I have started the season with the shanks. Totally unexpected.

    Biggest shock of the year is that Geoff doesn't have a backup "non-shank" set of clubs...or two.

    Back at it.

    You think that's shocking Reid? He's still using a Callaway S2H2 15° 3-wood (pre-Warbird, circa 1989)!!

    yup, freddie has always been a long hitter...anyone ever watch him closely in skins games? whenever there was room, or there was a risk reward situation, he was launching the ball a mile ... amazing to watch

    The S2H2 3 wood doesn't surprise me at all . I have the exact club sitting three feet away from me in my display rack (also have the matching 5 wood...). Mine however have the somewhat rare Callaway Titanium shafts. I saw that Fred had put the old S2H2 back in his bag for the Skins game. He had dropped it for a newer model about a year ago, but I guess that didn't work out.
    It's an amazing 3-wood, probably the best small headed 3 wood ever made, at least IMHO.
    I believe also that Fred's is the 13* tour issue model.
    510TP and an S2H2 3-wood... well, the man has an eye for quality equipment....

    Could have something to do with the fact that he earned his spot on tour, she hasn't. She turns PRO, cashes in $10 mil and has no official tour.

    My opinions are my own, I do not follow others.

    VJ, Goosen, or Els not winning yet on the PGA Tour. Surprising to me.
