BUBBA Proof?

[CincyCreech]

Hope this isn't a repost!

 

Decked out in Oakley?!

[nacho]

Wow sweet

[Damo75]

I love that tee shot...

I was lucky enough to be in Hawaii about 11months ago and that is exactly how I remember it. Being there now for the Hyundai ToC would be unbelievable.

All the best to all the WRX'ers heading to Maui!

PS: Sorry for the thread-jack, I just couldn't resist after seeing that photo!

Shoes?

Reason #1 why PGA players are required to wear pants when playing in tournaments

Cool shot.

Looks a little like the Chevron logo.

Happy New Year AUSTRALIA!

Only male on the planet who can pull off the pink driver.

FJ Icons

[Frankensteins Monster]

Let's hope none of his shirts have the top button sewn on so it prevents him from nerding.

Some of his TM outfits looked like stuff kids wore when I was in Kindergarten. This is a huge improvement.

I couldn't disagree more but thats what makes us all unique

Anyway here is the official TM release regarding Bubba https://twitter.com/TRAVISMATHEW/status/285813286291775490/photo/1

[CincyCreech]

awesome! very nice..

Kind of crazy with this year coming to a close that we are going to see alot of these rumors coming true!

[monkeynaut]

Didn't know he left Travis Mathew. Just spent the last five minutes searching the internet for info. Feel like a jr high kid who missed out on a rumor.

Nice catch for Oakley. They get Bubba AND Rory/Nike court money?

[jbrunone]

that is one ugly shirt, love the view tho!

What is Travis Mathew?

And why did they spell Matthew incorrectly?

No wonder Bubba left them.

[WilburnLong]

I always liked the Bubba and Travis Mathew pairing. It just seemed a great fit for both parties. I've never been a fan of Oakley gear I must say. Oakley to me is always equated with Pacific Sunwear, puka shell necklaces and a bad bleached hair.

[scratchswinger]

Seriously is there a hole better than Plantation 18? Remove nestalgia all that cr*p and show me a hole that is more fun.

It's crazy that Bubbas swing works, that position is less than ideal.

But does it really work? He's only got 4 PGA Tour wins over the past 3 years including The Masters...

I think you answered your own question (although may it was sarcasm)

Like with many players he can be ice cold with the putter, and chilly with the chipping

[AP2 712]

It was 100% sarcasm Vindog

Didn't see that coming, I always liked Bubba's TM styling...hopefully Oakley suits him with some nice stuff, always liked their colours and BELTS.

I must admit that I've always thought that he is the last guy on tour that people would look to when choosing golf clothes. He looks like a complete redneck no matter what he wears, a situation exacerbated by his bizarre insistence on tieing his top button

rednecks "tie" their top button? Who knew??

I know TONS, and most don't "tie" any of their buttons.

Now you know!

That was fun fact #1 for 2013...

[gators78]

First thing I thought of was can he even wear sunglasses and not bump them with his right arm on his backswing?

Second thing was I'm not a fan of the glasses and old school visor look.

Third thing was where the hell are my car keys.

Travis Mathew is a clothing company.

Mathew is spelled with one T because the founder Travis Matthew Johnson didn't want a company named exactly after him. He came up with the idea of just using his first and middle name after he was ID'ed at a bar and the bouncer said "Travis Matthew, isn't that cute."

Travis Johnson left the company in 2010. He is now working for Leisure Society and they are getting ready to launch a new brand called Matte Grey, which is supposed to be similar to Travis Mathew at a better price point.

[/quote]I actually hated 18 at Kapalua the two times I played it. Maybe it was because the course was dried out and running really fast during the summer time...but I hated hitting a 270 yard tee shot down the middle only to find that it rolled out to 430 yards and it had rolled up into the hazard that comes in towards the fairway about 150 yards out. This happened to all 4 guys in our group the first time we played the hole. The 2nd time, I hit a hybrid off the tee to the far right side of the fairway to keep it from funneling down so hard to the left.

Other than that though I really enjoyed the course. I've never played on greens with so much gravitational pull. Once you figure that part out then it's a great round of golf. I enjoyed the 36 holes on Lanai better but Kapalua was a blast as well.
