I’m a huge fan of rolling and it’s time, you monkey, to roll!
And I think that this time the art of doing something that a lot of us have said was good is actually going to be backed by the Science. At the Sierra Pacific Spring Symposium 2011 (where Herr Maestro Mac was the Keynote Speaker), Oregon State’s Dr. Rob Golembiewski (aka G11) talked about his work with rolling.

I’ve got some definite ideas as it comes to pre-stress and early-stress conditioning of fairways.
