There is no question that Brian Gay gives up yardage to the field off the tee. But he's not the only one. For example, according to the Shotlink stats, Jim Furyk averages 273.1 yards. Brian averages 269.3. That's a difference of only 3.8 yards. And yet, you never hear that Jim is 'short.' All you hear about is his 'unique' swing.
Jim Furyk has never paid any attention to the naysayers.
Neither should Brian Gay.
It is a player's birthright to seek improvement in his Stroke, either its Power or its Precision or both. However, any considered change should first be geometrically-sound.
In my opinion, the 'solutions' offered last weekend from the TV tower fell woefully short of that standard.

The talking heads were "short" in many areas on that telecast. They got Kip and is brother mixed up. They mistaked Collard Greens for Alex Sloan. Everytime big Vern mentioned Brian's name he said, "Brian Gay, who has never won a tournament . . . " Kinda like all the goofballs who constantly had to give us the revelation that John F. Kerry was in 'Nam. Ok guys we got it!
Yeah Vern Brian has never won on Tour . . . and he ain't never had to pimp a stoopid mongoloidian TV show like Pirate Master. He probably ain't never sat in a TV tower and ate a case of Hostess King Dongs using the Magic of the Right Forearm. He probably ain't never combed three feet of hair from his left ear to his right ear to cover up the hole in his mullet. And I doubt he's ever chased his asprin with a jar of mayonase either.
Yeah those guys where relatively negative they just kept going on and on about how short brian is and how is ball striking stats are like 16oth on tour. Whatever happened to talking positive about a player who is having a nice week and contending for the win.
Perfect example of this situation.
Jim Furyk came out to a skins game we have out here in CA. His best friend plays in our game. Jim was killen the ball.
Why-wide open easy golf course with no trouble off the tee.
Never seen the course shot 65 with no probs
Can't do that on tour..
