    If you think golf is less precise......go drive a vehicle and turn the steering wheel a 1/4 inch, then go hit a golf ball and turn the golf club a 1/4 inch, and see which one gives better results!And as a comparison, a pro golfers clubhead is moving at 120mph plus!
    ZERO, it's a much safer bet that if golfer Eldrick was to take a full on balls out ride in a full house wingless 410 two seater sprint car behind a guy like Thomas Meseraull at Terre Haute he'd need oxygen, 4 shots of Crown Royal, a hundred milligrams of oxecontin, a change of britches and someone with the stomach to clean the seat!! LOL!

    I think golf is a lot less a lotta' things, let alone precision!

    As far as the precision goes, no offense intended, but I'll take the word of a multi time champion driver who also golf's over the publication that deals solely with subject matter as mundane as golf.

    120 MPH clubhead? Well, lets see........the guy I spoke with drove a car straight at a solid concrete retaining wall at speeds approaching 80 MPH faster than the head of Eldrick's mighty club, turned the car dead left without touching the brake or lifting his right foot even a little bit. He had to flawlessly execute that maneuver 4 times every 45 seconds or so under green flag conditions for something over 150 laps. Sometimes with other cars within inches of his. Regardless of the "precision", golf has the physical exertion, intensity and excitement level that narrowly exceeds that of a brisk game of 8 ball! LOL!

      Since you wont give an attaboy for Tigers precision, you gotta give him one for this:

      Harold Varner texted Tiger Woods, asking for a favor for friend of Varner's battling cancer. And Tiger delivered.

        ZERO, Eldrick doesn't give a fat rat's ass if he gets an attaboy outa' some knucklehead race fan from the Midwest, such as myself. Rightfully so. But I must say, for a time, he was the best in the world at what he does, however mundane it is.

        I can't begin to imagine how much what Eldrick did meant to the gentleman battling cancer. I can only wish that something I would do could mean as much to a total stranger, as was the case with Eldrick and the cancer victim. Hat's off...........
