Let me see if I got this straight;
You are on the nuts with a 1 iron
You're average drive is over 300
You are hitting wedges into par 5's (but can only manage par )
You don't play very often
You have a four handicap
Again, not saying you aren't all you say - but I'd have to have confirmation.
Kind of like some of those ams at Pebble, the ones they tell us have a 4 or 6 handicap - then we see them take the loooong way around the course . Well I only watch on sunday now so don't know if Kevin Costner or Kenny G or Kelly Slater didn't outplay their prof. partners the other three days... or even broke 90

Yeah, I definitely think that Matt is wasting his time (with whatever he's doing) by not going on tour. Let's do the math:
Par 5, 522 yards...no dogleg and no elevated tee and uses a sand wedge on second shot.
At the Accenture last week on the last hole that Tiger used a driver he hit it 319 yards.
If Matt hit it 40 yards further than Tiger, that would be a 359 yard drive...and embarrass the hell out of Tiger.
It would still leave Matt with 163 to the pin.
Now, unless Matt plans on hitting that sand wedge in the belly every time...that is a very strange club to be using for a 163 yard approach shot.
Hmmmm............................
