First, I must apologize to Bucket for trashing his room even more than it is already. Delete this post, whenever. It's just a no-good rant. I tried deleting this post but no "delete" button.
I haven’t read a Golf Magazine nor viewed the Golf Channel for a couple of years, except for Tounament Coverage. But, last night I watched TGC for about 15 minutes. A show called “The Fix”.
I must have started watching the show about halfway through when a caller said he was “Pushing the Ball to the Right”. The Host said: “place another ball right and in about here (the host placed the second ball about 3” from the golf ball on the Angle of Approach), and swing around it.” This will allow the Player to properly hit the back of the ball. He further stated, “If that’s not enough, use a little over-the-top, outside-in swing”.
As a result of viewing this program, I have the following Symptoms:
Rapid Heart Rate
High Blood Pressure
Seizures
Sniffling
Coughing
Depression
Headaches
Nausea
Watery Eyes
Stomach Pain
Chest Pain
Why is it that a Hair Stylist is required to attend two classes per year to keep her license, but that any guy who can hold a Putter be a Host on a Golf Instruction Program?
Is this really the best they can do? I’m well aware of the need for profits, but isn’t upper management at least a little aware of the garbage they pass off as product? Is it that they don’t care, don’t know any better, or don’t care about knowing any better?
You would think that their complaint letters would tell them something. LOL. Maybe they have.
I guess if people hear the same old crud enough times, then its got to be right.
We have people down in Oz teaching that the plane is rubbish, yet all their players do it just fine. Sheesh if they opened their eyes and minds life would be so much more interesting. I am glad for a Zen upbringing........ ummmmm
TV wise, I watch it with the Mandarin commentary. No idea what they are saying but it keeps my blood pressure in check. 'Puss da flied lice'.
That guy (Michael Breed) is a joke. I can't wait till they pull that crap off the air. And I thank Lynn, TGM, Alignment Golf DVD, and everybody at this site for saving me from jackasses like him. That show boils my blood.
Did you see the episode when Faldo joined him. Towards the end Nick had a funny look on his face........sort of like the Queen when she is "not amused".
A six time major champion getting free advice from Richard Simmons. I cant watch that show anymore.
The higher a golfer's handicap, the more qualified he deems himself as an instructor.
