Summary

In today's episode Lou, Scott and Mark are talking about PGA Champion Steve Elkington's comments that strokes gained is useless and that tour pros do not use it. This creates some great golf chat about strokes gained and the pros and cons of the system. We also get treated to a couple of Lou Stagner golf stories talking knee high drops with your bottom and shanking the golf ball in his club championship. We also talk about the move of the PGA Championship to allow pros to use range finders in a major and what this means going forward for golf. Learn more about your ad choices.
