Uh, don't look now but this guy Charlie is kind of tearing it up out there. When he gets to the big stage I don't think pressure will effect him much.

Apparently he got smack game too.

I’ve had one eagle in my entire life and Charlie just did it on National TV at age 11.Quote:

Can you imagine having Tiger Woods for a father? Upsides and downsides, I tell ya....Quote:

Tiger at 14 (Charlie has still got some work to do):

That reminds me of a guy I used to golf with heffray. The guy was so used to shaving stokes and cheating that when he finally did get a hole-in-one, he marked it down as a 0 on the scorecard out of force of habit. :rofl:Quote:

Likewise to you, Mangy. Merry Christmas!Quote:

Maybe he'll join the senior tour in a few years to keep his name in the sport and keep his endorsement game strong.
I think we’ve talked about this before, but I don’t see Woods playing on the Champions Tour.Quote:

It looks and sounds from all reports that he is very fortunate to have just survived that accident, so very pleased for that on behalf of his children and family. Hogan made a comeback from a terrible crash, so perhaps Tiger can do the same. The game is better with him in it. Prayers for a complete and maybe even a miraculous recovery!
did ya see bryons got the big W at arnies event, mangy? reminds my of 1 of my favorite arnold memories-------anytime hed see some1 with a jack nicklaus shirt, hed say "watcha doin with that pig on yer shirt?" then hed pinch the logo and give the guy a titty twister! lmfao, hurt like hell i guess ... good ol arnie!Quote:
