Athaletic skill and size?

Alright. I am reading on this site that bubba is hitting a is hitting a hybrid 300+ yards. I play baseball at a very high level and have connections to some MLB teams. I have met all of the Marlins, Phillies, Giants, and a few players of mention like Pujols and Manny Ramirez. I am wondering how built bubba is, because these players are huge. Is bubba big, because all of the mlb players I have met are 6'2''+. Any body know how tall or how built he is?

Well I don't know about hitting the hybrid over 300 plus yard, Bubba isn't a huge guy but he swings out of his shoes on alot of his swings. Just wondering what you playing baseball at a high level and meeting a bunch of Mlb players has to do with the build of our new favorite lefty?

i was talking to my ping rep last night and he said in no way is bubba 180lbs, he is about 195-200, and his equipment is very "normal" so to say...except the putter...it is a TITANIUM B60 w/G5i insert, definitly not available to anyone other than his custom request. and his driver is a bimatrix shaft painted pink

I was standing 10 ft from him, he looks more than 180. 200 I am not sure, but I am 170, and he looks to have me outweighed by at least 10 lbs.

... bubba is no where near as big as some of the guys you mention (though ramirez is nothing special). bubba is a far cry from built, but at 6-3 i'd say he's 200. heck, they list ernie at 210 ... but, when i saw him i'd swear he's (a very unbuilt) 230 easy.

Every once and a while I get to take off work and play in a group at a course called Tangelwood (Dog Track) in Milton FL. It is a little north east of Pensacola. When Bubba is in town, he is there, same with Boo Weekly and Heath. I have played in front and behind Bibb. You are safer when you play behind! His balance, timing, and drive through the ball are unbelievable. I hit the ball pretty long, but he is stupid Long!!! If any of you guys ever make it our way let me know! They have a real good game! Decent money.

Just wondering what you playing baseball at a high level and meeting a bunch of Mlb players has to do with the build of our new favorite lefty?

Well my guess is that it has everything to do with the time I once owned a BMW M5 but later had to get rid of it for financial reasons and such, but as long as Bubba is stupid long, swings out of his shoes and weights 190lbs....its all good. :drinks:
