David, I share your first name and am also a recovered alcoholic. I enjoy your column and your broadcasting. Golf is part of my support program and my prayers and gratitude are with you. Being public about your story is courageous and I am encouraged by it. Thank You very much.

an awful lot of commentators make reference to swing speed, tempo or rythm in the golf swing, how is it that you can have a big guy like big Ernie who obviously creates an excessive amount of lag with an incredibly measured swing hit the ball as far or further than as say for example Ian Poulter who whilst is a big guy at 6ft 1inch or Camellio who is a shade under 6ft
these two appear to really have to go at the ball to create the club head speed that the big easy seems to create with ease, surely with technology where it is these guys should be able to swing well within themselves to create the same level of shaft lag to hit the ball as far?? no?

Hi David\\

Did you ever play a round of golf with Jack?

I have a general questions about club specs, specifically iron lofts. I realize manufacturers are making lofts stronger so we think we are hitting their clubs longer than another brand. However, right some manufacturers have pitching wedges with a 43* loft. Twenty-five years ago this would have been an 8 iron. At this rate people will be carrying fairway woods, a 7 iron and 6 wedges. I would appreciate your thoughts.

In a recent issue of Golf Digest they suggest the amateur should replace their 3-Wood with a 4-Wood which comes in 17 degree and 18 degree. My question is why replace the 3 with a 4 when a 5-Wood is usually 18 degrees also. Why not for us average players carry Driver, 5 wood and either a 7 or 9 wood?
And you are right, Cobra clubs are right on. I play Cobra driver, I have 3, 5, 7 and 9 woods. Also, I carry a 3, 4 and 5 hybrid although I hit my 5 iron pretty good. Bought hybrids and woods at one time so I would make sure the color of shafts are all the same.
In match play this Sunday, Ian Poulter had what appeared to be a Cobra head cover for his driver that fastned with velcro. I like the new S2 driver and thinking about getting one this spring in the offset style. Being 64 I figure the extra help could not hurt. Do you know where I can get one of those headcovers. Checked online and had no luck. Any help would be appreciated.
Like reading your articles every month.

Hi David,

My golf partner plays year round in the northeast, through snow, rain, and horrid temperatures. He also has every swing aid known to man. He spends tens of thousands of dollars a year on his country club membership, greens fees, clubs, and swing aids, BUT WON’T BUY HIMSELF A FEW LESSONS TO CURE HIS FRAGILE SWING. Any thoughts on how to temp dollars out of his pocket for lessons and few Cobra TWS hybrids that have dramatically helped my game??

Hello David,

I see in your bio that you will be 52 in 2010. Why don’t you get a sponsors exemption on the Champion Tour and get out there and kick those old farts butt. If you are afraid of embarrassments , you and Gary could team up in the Liberty Mutual partnership. If Rush Limbaugh can take the abuse, I know you could.

I always enjoy seeing you on the golf telecast.

Your faithful viewer,

Tony D

I was really confused when Geoff wasnt with Cobra @ the SBC and won it.
What happened that he isnt with Cobra?
You rock !!!!

Thank you

David, I think you’re great!

My question is…. is it possible for a 50 year old 11 handicapper to ever become a professional golfer? If so, what would he have to do, short of being reincarnated as rory macilroy or tiger woods?

thanks and have a great new year!

Victor

Hi David. Happy new year from snow bound West Virginia. Who is the best club thrower you have ever seen? Are there any distinguishing characteristics between the amateur and the professional heavers? Thanks. My family and I love ya!

David,
I have watched your great work with veterans and wounded warriors. What initially motivated you deep involvment in this work/ By the way, keep it going.

Tom, RVN 67

David, I love your wit. When are you going to get a shirt that matches John Daly’s pants??

Hi David,

What’s the funniest thing you ever saw someone hit with a wayward shot? My buddy Joe used to hit overhead wires and farm tractors with some regularity.

Have an awesome day,

Lawrence

If you DID become an Irish Opera Singer… and let’s face it, what other kind of opera singer would you be? Anyway… if that was where you went in life, and let’s say you decided to WRITE an Irish Opera… what would the story-line be?

David,
I am a retired forrester, so I notice that your knowledge of dendrology is excellent! You actually KNOW the species of tree a golfer must deal with and enlighten the audierce that it is a “Pin Oak” for example. Where did you acquire this expertise?

Keep up the good work

David.

Last years Barclays tournament was held at Ridgewood CC which you raved about. What are some of your favorite courses either on the tour or not? Excluding some of the well know courses IE Augusta and Pebble. In addition, what are some of the common characteristics of your favorite courses and ones that you hate?

Jeff

Hello David!! I was just wondering if you got your citizenship?America would be a better place if we had more like you.Take care and keep up the great work!!

David,
If you had to choose between a social round of golf (with whisky and friends?!?) or playing in the final pairing of the 2010 Open Championship (every shot televised and commented on by say Jim Gallagher) which would you prefer?
Courtney Gorman

David,

When are you going to be on Michael Breeds show so you can explain to him that if you have a new Cobra Driver with nine sweet spots, he would not have to keep telling people to maximize distance they have to hit it in the center, high side of the driver face?

what is the last thought you have when you take the club head back,path direction or something else? KIT ERVAY

hey david,

what is your take on golf being in the olympics, what format do you think it should be played in. also would you watch it yourself.

David what would you be doing if you never got involved in the game of golf?

David,
Why is it that everyone on the local golf course talk about consistently hitting the ball 300 yds off the tee? It seems that eveyone can hit it that far but me, I only hit it about 280. Help me, what can I do??????

D.J.
in Nashville, “Music City” TN

Do you get the heebie-jeebies when you get to talk to Tiger Woods. Even though you are the man and everything, he must get you all worked up.

Jaden

Why doesn’t the US Tour have guys assigned to each group to rake bunkers like in the Open Championship? It would seem to speed play and assure a consistent rake (training assumed)rather than having the caddy do it. Plus it’s a highly sought after volunteer gig. Heck, some guys might even pay to do it!

David – I am a cyclist and was very impressed with your cycling event for Troups First Foundation. Is it possible to hold an event in my town (Reno, NV) and would you consider attending if your schedule would permit? Also, you might consider auctioning your Madone and a ride with David to raise money for the foundation. I, for one, would bid.

Unfortunately my physical specifications don’t match any of the tour staff but you are much closer to my build and age. I am looking for a driver to try out so which driver do you use?

Hello David,

I’m not sure how much golf you get to play with your busy schedule. Could we have a what’s in the bag, where we could see what you use when you do get out on the course?

Geoff-

David
Can these new adjustable drivers be adjusted during the course of playing a round of golf?
Can they be adjusted between holes or even during the playing of a hole?
Marty from Mamaroneck

hi david
I am a member at two golf courses and i think one course is harder to play than the other and i play alot better at the other should i have a different handicap at each one??
Thanks

David,
What do you recommend an amatuer golfer do to get noticed. Play and win local tournaments first, then state and so on?

Any input would be appreciated.

Cheers!

Jason

David, where was Ziggy or the bad Badger when you where attacked by the suffering underwear ground hog?, and please don`t make fun of the name, I had enough when I went to school in Mianus, NJ. No comments on that either, everything was great in Mianus.
Thank you so much for the humor, I apply it in every round of golf on every hole, I guess you get serious after lowering the handicap from 10, I have been playing for 15 years and that`s my handicap, I would not have it any other way. 55 in 3rd.WC. Venezuela

Dr. David

I’m thinking about switching to a long putter but afraid it would be an assault on my manhood, much like getting a Granny ring on my Motobecane. I’ve resisted both, but I’m weakening.

How do the pros deal with the ego deflation of such a change? Has Lance ever had a Granny ring…or you?

Dear David

What is that little white stuffed Sasquatch/Jackalope looking thing in the background of what i assume is your den or office. Was that something you and your trusty hunting dog bagged? Just kidding I hope you know!

What are the first comments that come to mind when i mention these names …
Vijay Singh
Fred Couples
Johnny Miller
Mike Weir
Tiger Woods

David

My brother is in The United States Marine Corps and he goes to Iraq in March but has some leave in October. Is there any way you could join us for a round of golf?

david,

your comments are outstanding and make golf so much fun to watch. do they just come to you or do you write them down ahead of time ? also one other note off the subject… i’m not sure if my beagle could sniff out tim herron at the hot dog cart.

jason

This may have been asked already but I was too lazy too look through to see if it was. You were a very good player so why did you quit? The european tour was not the same after that.

Do you think hat anybody at all realizes the potential ramifications of the new governing rules toward the tour irons that make square grooves obsolete? Has this also been ratified by the USGA? If so, when does it go into effect, and how long until all the irons on the planet are illegal?

David, Love ya on the Dan Patrick Show! I know you could take Dans money on the links, but is he as good as he thinks he is?

David, Our here in Oregon people are raving about the new course at Bandon Dunes called Old McDonald. When do you plan to come out an play it and determine if it is truly better than Pacific Dunes?

David,
How important is a healthy breakfast to a good round of golf? I am 65 years old, and have noticed that my play improves after number 9 hole and a sandwich for lunch.

Thanks

Pat

who’s the funnist ,you or mc cord

If I give up my normal accent and only speek in an Irish accent from now on, will I be a better golfer, lover, what should I expect?

Hi David,

At the risk of seeming sycophantic, I am continuously impressed with your montlhy Golf Magazine essay.

I’m curious as to just how much work you typically put into the densley rich commentary and humor. Does it just flow, or do you rework it dozens of times? How hard is it to come up with a suitable topic month after month? Could you tell us a little about how you go about it?

As an aside, while “comedians” like you take a lot of heat when some thin-skined prude is offended by a joke, there are a lot of us out there who respect and easily accept that trying to amuse us will occasionally irritate us. You’ve never managed to offend me (I doubt McCord can say the same), but if you ever do you’ve got a boatload of mullligans as far as I’m concerned.

Howie Meditz

how can you turn pro

David – My wife and I are making our first visit to Ireland to meet family. We may only have the opportunity to play one round of golf while there, which course would you recommend? We will be on the west coast.

David

Do you think the PGA tour will ever allow golfers to wear shorts and what is your opinion on the subject?

David

Why don’t PGA golfers wear black gloves?

Hi David! From the pro tour Cobra family who can give you a run for your money as a comedian and possibly as a commentator inthe future. Thank you. The Cat.

David

Do you think the PGA should or ever will allow golfers to wear shorts and what is your opinion on the subject?

with public courses getting longer is this truely helping the average golfer and the speed of play for others. the statards for the pro’s is not for the average player. may be the farthest tee’s should only be played during tournment play?

Has any Pro double hit a chip or putt in a major since T.C Chen in 1985?

Hey David……………why don’t you get Cobra to build a club that has a built-in speaker that bellows out “get in the hole!!” as soon as club and ball make contact. How wonderfully annoying would that be!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep entertaining us with glib commentary !!

Brooke

Hey David,

Would you mind taking a… swing, at giving your ‘New Yorker accent? Thank you.

D.Day

Why, under “Lift, Clean and Place” rules you can place your ball within 1 Club length of where it was, no nearer the hole. But when you land in some ignorant golfers divot you play it from where it lies?

How well would a 12-13 handicap weekend warrior stack up against today’s touring Pro’s on a tournament course. I’m guessing that the handicapped player might not be able to reach the fairways on some of the layouts.. How many shots would the pro have to provide the amateur to make the match somewhat competitive?

Curious to know..

David, It is nice to see someone who enjoys life and does not take himself to serious. I love your column, always a good read.
My question is that I am not a very patient person and I always seem to play and score better when I am playing alone. When I play with a group my score is usually 8-10 strokes higher. Is there anything I can do to correct this?

Thanks

David,

When you were playing for a living, did being paired with a golfer who was struggling that day ever throw you off your game? How did you handle situations like that?

Thanks,
Travis

David,

Has there ever been a current Nationwide Tour player play in a PGA event ever won? Or what is the best outcome for such a player? Thanks – Ruben

O.K. David. First, thanks for making reading fun again. I’ve enjoyed all of your books. I’m hoping you are working on a new one.
My other question is … Do you plan on playing golf proffesionally again?

David,

Sorry to hear you can’t play golf anymore !

My question is; Obviously you can’t ride a bike that well, WHY do you keep trying ?

David, who is the bset interview in golf?

David,
If the US Open format was a Florida Scramble and you were playing, name your dream team and why.

Charles

David,
I can’t seem to get an answer from “The Fix” so maybe you could help me. What can a person do to keep their left arm from collapsing? Is there a certain drill or something of this nature.
Great commentary, beats the hell out of the moustached guy.

Thanks

David,
I know a few former PGA players and a few guys that ocassionally play on the Nationwide Tour. They all seem to have a tremendous amount of confidence in their game, even when they are playing badly. Although I’m a relative new comer to the game of golf, playing only about 12 years, I’m wondering how golfers develope such confidence and how do they maintain a high confidence level when going through prolonged “ruts”?
Thanks,
Stewart

Every week the winnings of each player is published in my local newspaper.

The winner of a PGA tournament usually is a little over a million dollars and it goes down to the last place paying around twelve thousand.

My question is; How is this much money generated?

I’m sure it’s not gate fees and with money tight in all areas I don’t see how the sponsors can keep coming up with enough to cover expenses.

Thanks

For as wonderfully challenging as Bethpage Black is for the Pros at the US Open, it strikes me that since it is a “public” course, shouldn’t it be less so. I keep seeing the warning sign, alerting the “public” that it is for extremely gifted players only. I understand there are less challenging courses there as well, but even still…

David,
Can you ground your club in a hazard, ie: bunker or water hazard, after you have hit your ball from the hazard without incurring a penalty?

John

I competed in a match play format with a competitor who limited his conversation with me to “Good shot.” and “You’re away.” It was uncomfortable for me. Has this ever happened to you in competition and how did you deal with it? I can’t imagine you playing without significant conversation.

David,

If Jack Nicklaus were to play Tiger Woods head to head in a fantasy match play contest at Pebble Beach, both at the pinnacle of their careers, who would win and why?

Thanks,
Richard Greene

Although, I think you are one of the funniest and better announcer on the golf scene; if it were possible for you to choose from being a consistenly successful PGA tour professional or one of the top golf announcer/analyst in your business which would you choose??

Thoroughly enjoy reading your monthly missive in Golf Magazine…first thing I turn to (the dog stories are modern classics). Also enjoy listening to your insights when you’re on hand at the tournaments.

I know a popular question is: who would be your ideal foursome (you plus 3), but I’d like to stretch that to 3 options…1) picking any 3 active pro golfers (and why), 2) picking any 3 golfers that have gone before (including retirees), and 3) picking any 3 amateur golfers. And, while I’m taxing you, how do you think you’d do in your foursomes?

Thanks, and keep up the humor!

Given one all-powerful wish, other than you and Gary McCord, who would you want to see in a playoff in golf’s U.S. Open?

David,

Of all the major championships that you played in, which one was your favorite?

Is playing in a “Major” any more difficult than playing in the “Ryder Cup”?

Thanks,

Mark S.

David, Aside from youself, which golfer of all time, have you admired the most?

Should the USGA dial the ball back for the pros?
By the way nice job with the pink go-tee.

I am a 17 handicap and have been playing Titelist Prov! golf balls for the last six months. It may be all in my head but I believe I get a better result with these balls. Recently I heard a club pro tell a player that the Pro V1 makes no difference unless you are a single didget handicapper. Does the type of ball make a difference to a double didget handicap player?

If your Driver is on line with the Target
Should your Feet be a little Left of Target ???

You’ve participated in many Wednesday pro-ams being a from PGA tour member. What are the most common mistakes amateurs make and what’s your suggestions to fix them?

Thanks,

Tom Creighton

David: where is the proper place for the sand trap rake? I have ask this question of many green keepers and golf course managers their reply is thay don,t know.

David, if you could replay your tour life, what one thing would you change (other than retaining more of your earnings)?

Dave (can I call you Dave?), have you thought about instructing? As a former player I feel your knowledge of the game is being wasted behind the cameras at golf tournaments, what do you think?

Why is it that the courses in Ireland and England seem to handle the weather, rain especially, better than the courses in the states?

David, out of all the US Opens you’ve attended what is your most memerable moment on or off the course for that matter?

Beth Page Black aregular mans track. Where fans do yell and fans do yack. If you have thin skin you aint gonna win. Well David FehertAY Who will be the winner at the end of play?

Hi David,
Do tour players ever have to pay for anything themselves during a Tour event, or do they simply show up and play. I know about courtesy cars at some events (maybe all events?), but what about food, lodging, entertainment, etc. etc. With all the tour vans and reps milling around, do the players also have access to any clubs that they wish to try out, the ones not under a club contract that is. Just curious as to how this plays out week to week, thanks, Chad.

David, In the “modern era” how close has a rank and file non pga pro come to winning the US Open?

Hi David, Why do most amatuers try to hit golf ball rather than swing at it?

Fairway Feherty,

The US Open is always considered the toughest challenge in golf due to the severity of the set up. If you were asked to set up a US Open course, which course would you select and how would you set it up to be a true test of golf’s best?

Hi Dave, Which Pro Golfer do you think will have the best score at Bethpage??

David, I t seems loud and colorfull attire is returning to men’s golf via Ian Poulter and John Daly. Do you have an opinion on men wearing short pants during competition? And how when and where did the dress code arrive at no short pants allowed for men?

David, we all watched with interest and humor as George Foreman worked to correct his swing. In the first episode, Tiger Wood’s workout program was discussed. Do many other golfers on the professional tour have such an exhausting workout program?

Why does Greg Norman use to different type of Putter
He has done this for years
blade type and offset type

In the question of who is the greatest golfer of all time, the ultimate 18 hole challenge would include, among others, Tiger, Jack, Arnie, Ben, Bobby Jones. But we can not do that. Would Cobra host an 18 hole challenge, with the best golfers today, using equipment equal to what was used in the 1940’s-1950’s, on a course groomed the way courses were in the same era? We know how good these guys are with the equipment of today. I would assume they will be good with the equipment of yesterday, but how does that performance compare to the greats of yeaterday? It would at elast give us a basis for comparison, and I think a large live TV audience.
Thanks for your consideration.
Mike

So, I playing golf with my friends last Saturday when we encountered a questionable situation in a bunker. My ball landed directly on top of the rake (in the bunker). No part of the ball was touching the sand. What’s the ruling.

PS: I picked up the ball, cleaned it, removed the rake from the bunker and dropped the ball in the bunker with no penalty. Was I right?

David, how do you stay so knowledgeable, well-spoken and handsome?

David: how do you think you would do if you competed at Bethpage

David,

You hear players say they like a certain tournament or course.
At tournaments what do players like to see in a course set-up and what type set-up do they dislike and complain about the most?

David,

What are some of the superstitions players have out on the PGA tour and do you think they really help?
Which player/players have the oddist ones?

David,

when you look back on your career on the tour is there any shot that you still regret? i hate to throw it back out there i am talking one that cost you a tournament kind of like lefty did off the 18th tee in 2006 i think! if so what would you have chosen to use or do? if you have not done anything in your golf career to regret how about while being a commentator? since you tell viewers what you think have you ever said anything then after you said it think it was going to come back to bite you or anything?

In a match between you & McCord, what kind of wager would be involved?

David,
It’s perceived many golfer (amateurs and pro’s) use training tools to improve their game, Medicus, Momentus, Swing bag to name a few. We also get fitted for our clubs to ensure we have the right loft, shaft, and grip. Next, we need to ensure we get the right glove and ball which best suits our game. Finally, we watch video’s, The Golf Channel, and read golf books which offer useful tip.

Now on the first hole, we hit our shot and it doesn’t go straight. What are some of the best tips you can provide amateur golfers which avoid letting your mind get the best of you and remember the good swing thoughts or tips we have been provided?

Mike

Hi David
has ther ever been a major fail up in the us open like, ROBERTO DEVANCENSO in the masters
that cost someone wining the us open.
thanks dee
P.S. YOU DO A GREAT JOB.

Hey David,

I am from Lubbock, Tx (North West Tx-Panhandle area). If you can’t play in the wind, you can’t play here. My question is, ” If you are on the green, you mark your ball, replace it, step back to take a look at the line and the wind blows the ball in the hole. What is the ruling?”

Thanks,

Wade

Hi David
Who was the last amiture to win us open,how many amitures have ever won us open and last do you ever think an amiture will ever win it again.
Thanks dee
P.S. you do a great job.

Have you noticed that a lot of times when a serious contender gets stymied behind a tree they always seems to be a problem with a borrowing animal that gives them lateral relief? Why lateral relief?

David – Having attended several PGA events, I noticed that there seems to be a definate pecking order concerning the practice tee. While at the Players Championship in 2007 I watched Tiger arrive at the practice tee and although Bubba Watson was already hitting balls in position number 4, he and his caddie were immediately moved down the line so Tiger could have the spot. It was obvious that the alpha male had arrived. Is this typical? Do the premier players have pre-established practice tee positions? What about the putting green? Give us the scoop from inside the ropes.

Gary Miller
North Bend, OH

David, would you sleep in your car to play The Black at Bethpage?

Why do you do what you do — and if you could not do it, what else would you do ??

Hi David,

Is the Stimpmeter reading only taken in dry weather and only on one hole?

Is there any set length (height) for the grass in the fairways, first cut, or rough for each PGA event or is that up to each course to set?

ok david i need to know how do you replace your ball on the green. you have picked your marker up and you back off for one more look and a big wind comes up and blows your ball off the green and in to the pond.

what is the rule for lets say you hit your 2nd shot on to the green and your about 2ft from the pin and the next guy hits and his ball hits yours and knocks it off the green.

Many years ago at a course named Palisades in FL, I hit a shot and my playing partner said I should have been penalized a shot for building a stance. Here’s what happened. I pulled my drive left and the ball came to rest at the bottem of an embankment by a cement rail fence that had out of bounds makers by it. My ball was in bounds but was so close to the fence that I couldn’t get my body between the fence and the ball and make a swing. I didn’t want to hit the ball backwards or take an umpayable lie penalty stroke, but I could and did climb over the fence so I was standing on one of the rails. Leaning over the top rail, I opened the face of 3 wood (I had a 6 ft high bank to get over) and swung parallel to the fence. I managed to advance the ball up over the embankment some 50 yds and I think I salvaged a bogie. None of my playing partners saw what I did, but when I told them, one of them was insistent that I should be penalized a stroke. If you could settle this old dispute, I would be greatful. Was I within the rules or should I find that old score card, make the correction and appologize to my buddy?
Thanks David

Larry Roux

WHEN IS IT CORRECT AND WHEN IS IT NOT CORRECT TO USE A DRIVER OFF THE TEE.HOW
DO YOU DETERMINE IT, IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN A DECENT SCORE?.

Who on the LPGA or Duramed Futures Tour would you most like to play 18 holes with and why?

This is the 109th US Open, how many courses have hosted the Open and where does The Black at Bethpage rank amoung those venues.

David, Who spends more time on the facial maintenance ,,,you or McCord?

Now that Faldo has been knighted by the Queen Mum, will you address him appropriately as “Sir Nick”?

David,
Much ballyhoo has been made about amateurs breaking 100 on Bethpage Black’s US Open set-up and I just saw on The Golf Channel that Michael Jordan shot 86. What do you think you would shoot under the same conditions?

How do you feel about USGA system of determing who plays in the OPEN? I think there are far to many ” certified” top levels golfers that are not in the field. Instead there are a number of unknown faces that are only there to provide a thrill for themselves and family. The stronger the field the better the tournment.

I understand that Tour players typically use drivers shorter than 45 inches, but drivers sold in golf outlets are typically 45 inches long or longer. If the Tour players want a shorter driver, why aren’t these drivers available to the average golfer?

David,

How well would tour players do with the technology of Arnold’s or Jacks’s time? And vice versa? Would Jack have more Major wins if he had the technology of today when he was in his prime?

Thank You,

Mr. Fehrty:
What advice can you give from your vast golf knowledge and experience that will help a golfer getting up in years to help improve his golf game? With all the aches and pains of being almost 60, I have lost distance and accuracy. Are there any drills you can recommend to help with these problems? Also just want to say I enjoy your monthly articles in Golf Magazine.

Hi David,

What is your word for the day?

Hi David, being a relatively new golfer, I have not been able to work out how the Nationwide tour fits in with the PGA tours. How do they qualify to play in Nationwide and do they receive money for their wins?
Looking forward to watching our Aussie’s in the US Open. It is great to see Cobra as a main sponsor.
I love my offset Cobra driver.

My son has been in the Navy for 14 years and he and his navy comrads play golf and watch golf constantly..If you could send them a great and humorous message, what would that be?

David, The U.S. Open and Father’s Day coincide this week. What’s your best and worst memories of this event and “the old man” ?

Hey David,

Just wondering if you can compare yourself to any other pro athlete. It doesn’t need to be a golfer but it can be. I think this is an interesting question because I could not really think of anybody to compare you to.

Regarding the U.S. Open at Bethpage Black, and especially b/c of the wet conditions and heavy rough, will most of the pros change and or modify their wedges, and if so, what would be the typical change?

David,

During your PGA days you participated in many Wednesday pro ams. What are the most common mistakes amateurs make and what are your suggestions to fix them?

Thanks,

Tom Creighton

david: i’m curious how important the caddys role is in tournament play. we know they lug the equipment around for (4) days, console the player after a mishit, keep them calm, etc. But are there other things they do?
seems to me they are underappreciated for there performance.
(and NO , i’m not a caddy)

charlie

David,

You seem like a very light hearted guy. Were you that way on tour and did you get nervous and what did you do to control them.

I would like to know if modern pros pronate like Ben Hogan did and if not how would you explain how they are so good without pronating????

In observance of father’s day, has there ever been a father against son playoff in a pro tournament?

Has a caddy ever got disgusted with his golfer and walked off the course. Who and when?

Hi David…

Please compare your opinion of the difficulty of this US Open with prior US Opens, relative to the course setup and the capability of the competitors.

Like your books and sense of the game. What are the possibilities of doing an in depth piece on how and what various players work on with their swing coaches?? It seems all we get is a little taste and a snipit of what they are working on, I understand how protective this magic stuff is but I not sure there is really magic as so many people believe. Are you still riding your bike? Be safe ,you make me watch golf on the Tele. RD

David, I tend to leave most of my putts short. A friend suggested putting in panties, knowing I’m Scottish and naturally not an advocate of undergarments. I put on a thong for our next round, and I had the distance, but was pushing them out. I then turned it around to find out I was now pulling all my putts.
Do you have any suggestions?

David, who was the first one to finish 4th in the 2008 U.S.Open?

Hello Mr. Feherty,
You seem to have two of golf’s coolest jobs: tv commentator and a golf magazine column writer. If you weren’t able to have either of these two jobs, what would you be doing to either be close to golf or have all the time in the world to enjoy golf?
THANKS A MILLION!!

Mr. Feherty:

If you are in a hazard, do you have to identify your ball, before you deem it “unplayable”? (Outside the red line marking the hazard.) A friend told me that if you can’t identify your ball, you have to take a lost ball penalty, which is different than a 1 stroke hazard penalty. My logic would be a water hazard. You can’t identify your ball there but you still drop a new ball approximately where it last crossed the hazard line.
Save me a dollar and answer this for me!!!

Have you ever played so poorly that you quit the round and why?

Where should the sand trap rake be keep in the trap or out of it.

David: I have always admired the effortless swing of Monty. Also, he takes very little time before hitting the shot. Do you believe he will join the Champions tour when eligible and if so, how competitive will he be?????

Hi David

I have played the Tiger Woods video game many times and love the constant banter between you and McCord. I’d like to know when being able to play AS David Feherty will be an option.

Thanks

With Father’s Day on Sunday, who would join you and your father in your dream foursome and why.

David; I still fight a slice as a right handed golfer. I have read every book and magazine and watched every video on tips to correct it. I have tried closing the club face, changing my stance, adjusting my left hand to see two knuckles etc. Do you have one simple tip that I can add to my list?

P.S. Thanks for your time with our servicemen overseas, for what it’s worth I loved the comments about Pelosi.

What was the most interesting exchange you had with a fan while playing on tour?

Fairway Feherty: Exiting to early or passing the torch?

Do think Annika excited the game to early or has she passed on the torch to Anna Nordqvist?

Hóigh! David,

Conas tá tú?

With your great wit, sense of humor and clever political commentary, I have wondered what type of approach you would take if someone had suggested that you were not born in Ireland, but actually born in Bangor, Maine, USA of Scottish parents?

Sláinte chugat!

Mise le meas,

David,

Can you tell us about Tommy Armour III’s famous parties in Dallas during The Nelson? We need details since this event is never shown on The Golf Channel.

In your opinion, based on personal experience (or whatever you wish to use as a basis), which of the four “majors” is the toughest test, and why do you feel that way?

David,

Which Cobra staff member has the best chance at this years’ U.S. Open?
Geoff Ogilvy has handled the pressure before but appears to have something missing as of late.
John J.B. Holmes swings a big stick and could handle the length issue.
Camilio seems to have the game but gets in his own way.
Ian really loves the big stage events and normally contends.

Look forward to your reply,

Ron

David,

You’ve just blown your drive past your competitors. As you pass them on your way to your ball, does golf etiquette allow you to chuckle quietly, or must you simply satisfy yourself with a smirk.

Mark Allen
West Bend, Wisconsin

david , the way you ask a question with the answer in the question, is that the way you became so famous in the golf course commentary? will cobra golf carry one of these pros to 1st place in the us open

David,
I know a few former PGA players and a few guys that ocassionally play on the Nationwide Tour. They all seem to have a tremendous amount of confidence in their game, even when they are playing badly. Although I’m a relative new comer to the game of golf, playing only about 12 years, I’m wondering how golfers develope such confidence and how do they maintain a high confidence level when going through prolonged “ruts”?
Thanks,
Stewart

David, Do you think it is a real posibility that a non pro could compete and even win the open? The open is played on a public course,can a public golfer win? Your opinion would be interesting.

David, when are you going to write another book. I loved the previous ones, they were great.

Why did you choose to live in Texas instead of Florida with all of the Pros? Are you afraid of the competition or is it that you prefer Armadillos to Alligators?

David,
Love your writting and commentery. Best ever. Will you ever have the chance to host one of the PGA tour events in the big seats in the same capacity as Nick F. I think you would be the best. Hope it happens and soon.
Frank Schmidt

I have been listening alot about these LONG par 4’s at this years open. What is the longest par 4 on tour and is there a limit to how long a hole can be??

I know at each event the players receive gifts or promotional items from sponsors or event promoters. What is the most unique or curiously interesting item either you received or have heard that players received?

A golfer hits a ball near a cart path, in which a left handed golf
can make a shot, but not a right handed golfer what is the ruling
does the right handed get a free drop?

Thanks,
J.T.D.

i am totally confused as what to do if i hit a ball in an area that is posted (inviromental protected area)

David, Not to bring up a painful question, but if you were to rate the pain when you crashed your bike from 1 to 10 (10 being the most painful), what would you rate it? I know you are a tough one from Ireland…so go ahead…answer!

David, We know that when it comes to commentating on golf…you are the best! The first, the last and all that matters in between. However, when it comes to biking…well, let’s just say that you won’t be mistaken for Lance Armstrong. But, that is OK! Small town boy from Ireland comes to the US and makes good…only in America people will say, but I say, only David Feherty! So enough with that..give me your comments and send me the stand bag. Thank you, thank you very much!

David,

How do you think professional golf will be affected with the 2010 rule changes regarding club design? Higher scores, closer competition or will things remain the same as the golfers adapt to the changes?

David, with rain predicted for possibly all four days of the Open. The caddies will have a tough time keeping clubs etc dry. Why don’t you ever see caddies carrying umbrellas for themselves and the clubs? You see the players with them but the caddies and clubs are left in the elements.

PS: David you’re the best.. Keep Gary in the clubhouse.

If you had a choice between two things to do, what would you do, build another house for your wife or go hunting in Texas with your buddies, and you have to let your wife know both questions before you answer.

Meadowlark Lemon was the clown prince of Basketball. Is David Feherty the clown prince of golf? You do brighten up the broadcast and I bet the folks in the truck just roll.

David,

Just out of curiosity, does “She who must be obeyed” travel with you much, or are your business trips of long duration keeping your marriage alive?

Fred Hirt

When a ball is hit over a water hazard, if the ball clears the hazard and rolls back into the water, where is the proper drop point for the ball?

Hi David. Thank you and Cobra Golf for the opportunity to do this.

In the ultimate fantasy Cobra Tour Pro’s faceoff challenge, Geoff Ogilvy hitting a ball from 120 yards out, playing in fescue as rough as Ian Poulter’s hair, and, Ian Poulter having to bend the ball willfully around a tree as tall as Geoff Ogilvy from the same distance, who would land closer to the pin?

Stacey Leek

Where can I pick up a sweet Leavenworth T like you are wearing in your latest post? I love the “Gated Community” line. Keep up the awesome work!!!

David: What was your favourite course to play and why?

David: I have appreciated your humor through the years. What forces came together to develop your unique sense of humor (even the serious ones, seriously)?

Have you ever been bitten by a dead bee?

Which every other yearly event is the biggest and what is the difference betweeen them. The Ryder Cup and the Presidential Cup?

Dear David

What did you think of the progress Hank Haney had with Charles Bakley on his show? I saw you made a cameo on the show and would like to know what you thought of the final ending for sir Charles?

david have you retired from competitive golf.great job on your commercials. keep them coming.

Hi David

I’ve seen you riding your bike on tv, have you ever ridden any races and if you did, how well did you do?

Hi David:

I enjoy your comments and interviews during the Golf Tournaments on CBS. Give us old guys one good tip on maintaining the angle of the shaft to get that delayed release. I’m really trying to increase my clubhead speed by ten miles per hour. We all want that extra ten yards off the tee.

Lee Milner

David,
There’s U.S. Amatuer Open at Southern Hills coming up at the end of August. I’m a golfer and volunteered to be a caddie for an amatuer player. What are the issue to caddie for a player. Is it to keep my mouth shut and let him do the work or if he ask me a question, do I give him my oppinion? I know I may not be like any other players on how to play the game like they have theirs and I have mine.

What are your suggested or what should I do to help the player to win the tournament? My thought was to work together as a team and to trust each other. Just like Tiger Woods and Steve Williams.

Your thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks, Robert Gaddis
My golf motto is: Hit long, accurate and make it to the Hole.

David we have 5 putting green here in B.V. AR and they all have flags instead of cups.What is your view on this?Is better to practice with cups than flags?

When I see tour caliber players hitting the ball using irons, why is it that they seem to keep the iron on the ground as long as possible?

Hey David, I was wondering if the new Cobra irons would allow me to hit the ball @ a lower trajectory. Oh by the way when are we going to quail hunt again. Thanks from Robe.

oh wisest sage of all rarified royalty of sarcasm and cynicism – what say you to the following:

If Washington politicos ruled golfdom, would the grass be greener, thicker, or spread out to all?

David,

As a person close to your age (49) can you give some suggestions on how to keep up with (Driving wise) the flat bellies (18 to 30) that I play? I am a 7 hdcp and Drive the ball on average 245 to 260 yards. The flat bellies are 20 plus yards ahead and say that I can’t use the senior tees until I am 65.

Hey David,

On the CBS broadcasts I know some of McCord’s funny lines are scripted but I was wondering if yours were just off the top of your head or the other end. Thanks and I commend you for your tireless support of our brave fighting men and women.

Steve L.

When will you be up in the Seattle area? I’m a big fan, Would be very happy to win the chance to play with you. Respect always Richard

David,

What are your thoughts on wearing shorts during a round and do you ever think the rules will change to allow them on the men’s tour?

Thanks,
Synergist

David I have read about 4 different ways to repair pitch marks in a green. But each seem to contradict the other. Could you demonstrate how you Pro’s do it? WildBill P.S. I loved your book A Nasty Bit of Rough.

David, While watching the S.t Jude Tournament and seeing John Daly in his new wardrobe, I was wondering if you would have the nerve to wear a pair of those pants while working on the fairway this weekend?

Hey David!

Have you ever thought about having your own tv show?
I think you would be great doing interviews and going around doing crazy things.
I would watch it!

How is McCord handling the fact that you have the better facial hair?

David,
How would your game have been different, if at all, when you played on the PGA Tour if you had the advantages of all the technical advances made in clubs and balls? Do you think it would have improved your game or would it have remained nearly the same in terms of distance, control, score etc.
Thanks,
SgtMike

I want to know how to hit a low one hop and stop shot onto the green from close range? I can hit high lob shots but that low one turns into a runner that can be further away than where I started from.

if everyone has a handicap why so many tee boxes

David, you seem like a ‘fun’ guy to play a round of golf with and was wondering, what tour player you’ve played with that you’d qualify as ‘the most fun’ to paly with and on the other end of the scale, what player you’ve played with would qualify as, ‘dead serious and don’t even think about engaging in light hearted conversation. Not wanting to cause you any problem with a player but, they probably know who they are already!

How do you (personally) deal with cheaters?

As Euro Ryder Cup player, what is your favorite format (four ball, foursomes, singles) in the matches; and what, if any, alerations would you prefer in the format of the Ryder Cup including selection of players and captains ?

David,

Short of giving up the game I love, what is the best way to correct a duck-hook (that only occurs with my driver and almost never with my irons)?

Rogerb

Hello David, I play golf right handed and I’m partilly blind in my left eye. When I stand over a putt I loose my sight of the hole and am always moving my head. Any suggestions to help me keep on line with my putts

Hey Dave,..
With all the talk about Phil and Amy with her Breast Cancer. I was wondering how Seve Ballesteros isdoing with his recovery after his Sergery..
Also, I have a big Thank you to say to you and all the gang that Toured Iraq back on Thanksgiving ‘07. I was looking at pics my Brother sent me. He was Stationed there when you came by, you took some Pics with him. You really made his Thanksgiving. You guys are awesome. Thanks very much!!

On a well hit shot, are there any performance losses from playing a Cavity Back cast vs a Forged Blade?

Who would have been a better guest star on the ‘Love Boat’… You, McCord or Miller? Faldo?

With a 95mph swing speed, being a 8 handicap and 61 years old could one expect to get to a 2 or 3 handicap without increasing his swing speed playing regulation size golf courses.

What’s all this high tech BS about putters? I say pros and regular golfers don’t putt any better with these expensive ones than they did 50 years ago with 10 dollar putters. Thanks Ron

What distance determines whether a hole is a par three or four etc.. What is the maximun/minimum

What’s up David?

I’m a member at the “oldest continuously played golf course in America”. The Middlesboro Country Club est. 1889 in Middlesboro, Ky.

We have a former PGA tour player as a member…George Cadle.
Did you ever play golf with him or remember him on tour??

Thanks,
Joe

If you had never played golf, What line of work do you think you would be in today?

When in a sand trap, if you swing and hit the sand and hit the ball on the follow throw is it a penaity?

Can you explain the transition move? I have been told that it is one of the most fundamental moves in the golf swing for both accuracy and distance.

David,
When things are going all wrong out on the golf course, what would you recommend for the amateur player to help them find a way to turn things around and salvage the round?

You said that your playing career is over after your biking incident and that the Champions Tour is out of the question. How about being the next PGA Commissioner, or at least a PGA Tour Rules Official. Then you could impose an etiquette penaly on McCord. That is, after you explain to him just exactly what etiquette is.

How do you feel that technology has affected the game of golf and do you feel that this technolgy has been beneficial to it. Do we need to put more of a cap on the technology in the future?

I bought a set of custom fit Cobra irons about a year ago and I love them. I still use my Tommy Armour lob wedge because I can’t find a Cobra lob wedge to fit my set. When is Cobra going to come out with some wedges that we can buy?

Who do you feel at this point in the season has the best chance to win the Tour championship?

Can you compare the swing speeds of the Cobra long drive staff to the swing speeds of yourself or other tour players?

I play all cobra, (UFI’s/S9-1/DWS hybrids/Optica putter) What change would you or have you made to “your bag” as you have aged?

David , This may seem to be a too serious question for your standard reply to questions. I find you as being one of those people who has a great atitude toward life . How is that one with such a wonderful sense of humor zest for life was not able to apply that toward you years as a golf pro? I would think that beyond this zest and humor there is one who enjoys that part of the game of golf that has you reaching beyond yourself to get more out of the game. Thanks and I hope you enjoy this question . Billy D .

David

Tour Players like Tiger have swing coaches they use to prepare them for competition. There was an article recently about Tiger and Hank spending a day playing a round of golf at Bethpage in preparation for the US Open. I’m interested to know what kind of money tour players spend on that kind of service from their swing coaches.

David:
Why don’t tour players keep their own scores during tournaments?

David,

Would you ever encourage your kids to play competitive golf? I think it would be a hoot to hear your commentary of your child playing at the USGA Junior or on one of the tours when they make it!

David,
I am the proud owner of the 3W, 5W, TWS Cobra 59-1 (At 70 no need for a driver with these!)

Question
Hybrid/Utility how do you play them? Hit down on them like an iron or sweep them off like a wood?

hi david
i have changed from the ssi irons to the fp irons and though they are better(longer striaghter my handicap is 12)for the LIFE of me i cannot get on with the sandiron out of bunkers .I used to open up the face with the ssi but with the fp it seems to skid in the sand,is it me or is it designed to be used square????

Hi David -

When you’re about to stroke that 6 ft putt than wins a PGA tournament and a million dollars, or win a Ryder Cup, what the heck are you thinking and how do you quiet the demons inside your head so you can take the stroke without sprinting for the Porta-Pottys?

Thank you.

David,
Your Ryder Cup book was a great read. Considering your new citizenship, If you were asked to participate as an assistant captain would you be on the American side ?

Gary

What gear is in your bag now ?

With all your experience as a player, commentator and writer. What would you consider to be the single fundamental component of a golf swing ? I know there are many components but is there ONE which can, or IS, the most important component ?

Hi David. What advice do you have for older players who wear bifocals when trying to make solid contact with the golf ball? (its like looking at a fish under water; optical illusion.)

David, If I happened to be a 60 year old that probably is ADD (attention deficit disorder), would you please make some suggestions to help slow me down before addressing and/or hitting the ball. Desperately waiting/wanting to lower my handicap!!! Thanks for your advice, Roadrunner

One of the regulars in my weekend foursome uses every tip he has ever seen, heard or read everytime he swings. It’s so bad that the Marshall asked “What kind of ritual is he going through?” My patience is wearing thin. When I finally lose it, is the interlocking grip on a wedge the proper action and can you give me any tips for improving my clubhead spped so I inflict the most possible pain?

When a player is DQ’d, why do we seldom learn why so we can make sure we don’t make the same error?

Hi David,
Love your voice overs in Tiger Woods 2008!!! Please, correct me if I am wrong but the Tour Pro’s consider the The TPC at Sawgrass a fifth Major, if there ever was one. If you could have your way and could add a fifth major. Where would it be? When during the calendar year it would be played? Why?

Thanks,
South Carolina Golfer

what is the best advice you can give me to correct a slice on my drive

Who should use clubs with off-set hozzle? I bought a set in 1995 and want to buy a new set of clubs but, not sure about buying another set of off-set hozzle clubs.

How important is swing speed to distance? I am 68 and my swing speed has gone down considerably and I find it difficult to drive 250 yards, what is more important to increase this speed, the clubs or the balls.

I know you will have to ask for help on this question because this is not your area of expertise, but what is your favorite Irish whiskey? I’m a Scot but I prefer Irish, what say you?

Dear David,

I am usually straight and down the middle and my husband more often than not is in the rough or completely in the fairway next to us, but when we scramble together if his shot is even one inch closer to the green than mine we always have to use his shot. Why do you think that is?

Dave,
Is there realy a big difference in driver heads today? I thought that any player would benefit mostly from the type of shaft attached to the head.

Brian

Hey David; Do you miss playing on the PGA TOUR?

How are pairings established for the first two days of a PGA tournament?

hi david

in all your years and experience on and off the golf course what is the one thing you have notice that has improved and has deteriorated over the years ?

I’ll let you off easy with this. I am a 60 year old golfer who loves the game.
And when I watch a broadcast that you are a part of it adds as much or
more enjoyment then if I’m playing with friends. These announcers that try
to pick apart every shot or just like to hear themselves talk are boring. You
make Golf fun. It’s suppose to be fun and a relaxing venue. So please keep
up your funny and often insightful comments. Life is to short to make everything
a task. Again please let me thank you for making golf enjoyable for me.

How far did you hit your drives in your “heyday” on tour, and how much farther do you think you would have hit them with today’s Titleist ProV1 golf balls and your Cobra S9-1 driver?

If there were a “golden ferret” for wittiest personality, which current pro would win the award?

In your history as player and commentator, what is the best practical joke you’ve been a part of?

David, When on the practice putting green people nearly stand right on the hole they last played while they putt to the next hole. This really really bugs me. Why do they do this? Is there a logical reason to tie up two holes on a busy green?

Thanks for you insight.

John

David , my question is rather serious. I love your approach to life and to golf. You are an inspiration to many people both young and old alike . I quess my question is , How is that you could not approach playing golf with the same attitude you have in allowing people to enjoy your comments about the game and it’s players? I have read a couple of your comment in Golf Magazine and I think you are funny but you definately get your point accross , thank you for your honesty. Your friend although we’ve never met . Billy D.

Was your great sense of humor ever a problem for any of the players you were competing with? I think it would be hillarious just to be there when you are razzing someone. Don’t change anything.

If I were to use you as a character in one of my mystery novels would you be a “good guy”
or a “bad guy”?

Today, I shot a 39 on the front nine and a 53 on the back nine. Since each score is half of an equal round, why is there such a disparity between these two scores?

What was the most common question you were asked by those you met on your trip to visit the troops in the middle east a while back? And what was your response?

David, do you still ride? How much padding and other safety equipment do you wear when you go out on your bike?

I just purchased a new set of SZ irons from the golf pro at Shannopin Country Club. My question is when I got fitted I was still hitting slightly towards the toe of the club. Can you give me a drill that would get me closer to the sweet spot?

Is that your real “T” on your chin or is it out of a box? As a 20 + year wearer, just wanted to ask.

Hi David,

What’s the worst shot you have ever seen a pro hit, and the best?

Why do caddys have to move away from the pro after lining up put from behind him or her?

David, Who do you think is the all time best with a putter? Thanks, K.

anyone ever tell you that with the facial hair you resemble the devil? Did that help you on the tour? Did you ever put the horns on your competors?

David; I struggle with shot alignment. I have checked my alignment by laying the club shaft along the toes of my shoes and this helps but how can I do this during a round since using the club shaft trick is not allowed? Thanks. Dan

What is the biggest difference between regular golfers and professional golfers in their approach to a recovery shot from a wayward shot?

Hi David

Why is all the instructional material published aimed at the young and fit? Us oldies need a realistic approach to improve our golf. I have taken lessons to help me with my golf swing. nothing has worked.
I can’t make a golf swing like the young guns. My body at my time of life is built for comfort not speed.

Thanks Lee

David, what was your most embarassing moment on the golf course when you were on tour?

David,

What’s in the bag? Any sweet prototypes, special grinds, or a circle-t Scotty Cameron? Also, any lucky-charms you need in the pocket before you tee off?

Thanks,
Matt

Mr. Feherty,

How much difference does equipment make for a high handicapper, and is there a specific club or clubs where this becomes more important. Or should I just make sure the shafts are straight and long enough to fish my ball out of the shallow water.

Thank you

David,
You recently suggested during the Memorial tournament that Bettencourt take a few cannonballs into water to practice for a difficult shot. If you were to do a cannonball into water on a PGA course, what course, hole and body of water would you take the plunge in?

David – how different is the lifestyle, and how different are the people and their outlooks on life in your native North Ireland as compared to your adopted home of Dallas, TX?

Hi David,

With the number of Tour players wearing the white belt growing each week, I’m curious if you’ve been caught up in this trend yet? I love wearing mine, despite my brother making marching band references each time I do. I think the old, more robust Feherty might have had trouble pulling it off, but the new, svelt Feherty could definitely wear it in style!

So yay or nay on the white belt trend?

Thanks,
