He definitely is not. I am 6' 4", and when I talked to him recently he was about the same height as me, maybe a little shorter.

I don't know how tall Ricky is but in almost every YouTube video of his card his head get in the way of seeing someone's tee shot at some point.

Talked with Dave eye-to-eye many times so 5' 10" is about right.
I am 6'3-1/2" and the one time I've met Shusterick, Wysocki, Shultz, and Climo in person as best I can tell I was looking the slightest bit to a small bit down at each of them, practically level, especially with Kenny and Ricky. I would put them at 6'2, 6'3, 6'2, and 6'3, in that order.

I'm 6'3, and if memory holds from the one time I've met Climo in person, he's a little taller than I am. Feldberg is much closer to average height, as others have mentioned.
Next time the pros come to town to do a clinic or something, I'll try to pay more attention to how tall they are.

I'm 6'6", and am only stating heights of folks i have stood right next too, all were at worlds this year.
Ricky is about 6'5, almost my height, I think he's grown in the past 2 years, so if you met him a while back, it could be quite different. He was taller than I expected him to be.
big jerm is a solid 6'7 (he stated in a thread here once i believe, maybe even said 6'8?), def taller than me at the keg at worlds.
Will is about 6'3, taller than i thought he'd be as well.
nikko is pretty short prob 5'9-5'10
Feldberg and McBeth are right about the same as Nikko, so 5'9-5'10
Climo is prob 6'2-6'3, quite a bit taller than i expected him to be.
avery is a big 6'3, he's a large man, most of the others are stick thin, but he has mass to him.
Double G is prob about 5'9-5'10 as well.
Barry - i'd guess 6'1-6'2, i didn't expect him to be very tall either.

The discs between the vertebra in your spine hydrate at night and loss water during the day, decrease in height, thus the "shrinkage" and why most lowback injuries happen early in the morning when the disc are fully hydrated.

What a weird thread. Might as well start a thread to speculate on the breast size of female pros

Don't tempt us.
Umm, it would be a little more interesting, especially if it were combined with the new dress code change for the ladies.
While I understand you're just trying to stir the pot, I don't really see how it's the same thing at all... a good example that people care about how tall their favorite athletes/skilled athletes are is the fact that height and often weight have a line on the profile of pretty much every major athlete for every major sport.
The topic of whether height = distance has been beaten to death, and I think in general most people who understand physics agree that height can help get a bit of extra distance, but technique and muscle comp trump height every time.
FWIW, I do agree that your topic might be a bit more interesting though... :thmbup:
