    Professional Golf 2024 & 2025

    You've summed it up just as I see it, especially your football examples and the nonsensical stats. . . . "The last time they won a match on a tuesday 7:45 kick off in their green away kit was . . . blah blah blah......" Similar with snooker. Loads of guff about bugger all.

    Professional Golf 2024 & 2025

    I wish they had a "No Commentary" button on the remote. It does my head in with them all trying to get a turn at gabbing about bugger all. I regularly have to Mute when they are blathering on when someone is on their shot. Trouble with that is the mute symbol can block some of the view. Also, I...

    Professional Golf 2024 & 2025

    Talking about Faldo . . . I remember seeing Greg Norman giving an interview early in 1996 where he said "all Brits are chokers" Then came the Masters where he started the final round with a 6 stroke lead . . . . . 😄😄😄

    More surgery for Tiger

    Absolutely right. The sycophancy knows no bounds. There will be players actually on the course and taking shots, but we are force fed montages after montages of Woods, replays of Woods, history of Woods, blah blah blah. Even when he's missed the cut we still have to suffer this never ending *ss...

    Putting - No Practice Swing?

    I practice swing on putts but more to get a feel for the strength of the putt.

    Putting - No Practice Swing?

    I think a bigger danger is over thinking when putting. I'm convinced this is what is messing with Rory McIlroy's head. That missed eagle putt :confused: He fussed and flapped, then tried to tickle it into the hole. Who tries to work out the break on a two footer. Aim straight and just firm...

    The Open 2023

    Anyone else think some of the camera work was diabolic. Mainly on putts. Quite often they'ed go from a perfectly good angle, showing the man taking the putt and the hole, then they'ed switch the camera to a low angle shot where you had no idea where the bloody hole was. While having a moan - I...

    PGA Championship

    Getting putts is similar to getting doubles at darts. If you can't finish you can't win.

    I played today and..(Rolling) -originally created by JohnnyDee

    I played 9 holes on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Two different courses. I had a nightmare trying to get the tees in the ground. I even broke the end of a heavy duty penknife trying to break through. What do other guys do in this situation?

    Odyssey face insert repair

    Had it happen twice with mine. Semi fixed by my local pro both times. Got rid after the second time and bought an Evnroll with a proper etched out face.

    The ‘In the hole’ moron

    Same mentality as those who think it'll impress people if they do wheel spins driving out of the pub car park.

    Yup, really disgraceful.

    2022 Professional golf thread

    Dull is good. Warning - Rant coming. Anything is better than Dougherty, who thinks it's his show, and the golf is just something in the background. Wish they had a red button to change to a different commentary. My mute logo covers the bottom of the screen. I'm sure he thinks he's getting paid...

    Yes, Rory's military style tee shots are driving me bonkers. Left, left, left right left. Agh. :(

    Evnroll Putters

    Another long term Evnroll user and fan here. There were plenty of testing with robots etc. demonstrating the effectiveness of the groove technology. I'm sure there must be some stuff on YouTube. I've got the ER2 and was lucky enough to find one with a 385gm head which suits me perfectly. I...
