"Will switch hit putting become cool?"

You can bet the farm that Scotty Cameron / Titleist are already working on the dual putter. The one that Notah uses is custom made for him by Titleist. A lot of people, myself included, are already putting cross handed, and I dare to say it wouldn't be all that difficult to move to the other side of the ball if you can already cross hand putt.

What Notah does makes a heck of a lot more sense than the putting style of Chris DiMarco and Mark Calcavecchia. I messed around with that nutty grip of theres on the den floor and I have no clue how anyone can putt like that.

John,

I like the idea of this flag contest so much that I am going to talk to the pro at my City course and see if he is up for it.

As for Notah, well I guess I don't think men should wear two ear rings. Looks stupid. Now one ear ring is fine, as pirates used to wear those (and pirates were/are very cool).

I would think that Notah would be one of the best to face the Tiger stare. He can just think back to their college days and picture Tiger in his Tigger pjs. I can just hear Saturdays night post round interview with Begay now. Notah, if you can just maintain your position 12 stokes back of the leader, then you will have a real shot at second this week. The chances that a putt on 18 are going to pull one away from Tiger are slim right now.

Tiger will have his bad rounds, as great as he is, no one can play like he did in the Open every week. I have yet to see him play really great on a British style course. But it is Tiger we are talking about, so a week or two over there and he should have old Tom Morris rolling over in his grave.

Wouldn't surprise me.

Have a good one.

TH

P.S. They should have a map in the clubhouse that shows where everyone flag ended. And then frame it for a year. lol.
