[itsamomentintime]

I used to love that channel - putting tips with Dave Pelz, yoga for golfers, Breaking 100/90/80....

cant believe its been 10 years since the Golf Channel UK stopped broadcasting.

 

[patricks148]

Didn't know it had stopped, been over 10 years since I lived in a house that had sky.

You make it sound like you don't live in your own house.

I first saw it in America over 20 years ago... Big Break was great... and who was the blonde doing the yoga?

 

[jim8flog]

I miss Big Break but not the repeated adverts.

The guy with all the antique equipment who was pointing out that there was nothing new in golf club design was bit of an eye opener.

Don't forget the incredible Slazenger K1speed...
Don't miss out... order yours today :thup:

Had forgotten Big Break, bit sad but used to enjoy watching that :thup:

 

[Deleted member 23270]

Ah yes, Big Break.

Who was that blonde haired geezer with the dodgy haircut that owned the course it was filmed on? Wonder whatever became of him?

does anyone receive the US Golf Channel at the moment?

Wasn't there a NOrthwestern 460 driver too that was meant to be the dogs proverbials ? I remember watching Tommy Gainey on the big break. I think Guy Woodman , English Pro, was on that series too.

I remember, had Sky way back then. May have bought my Momentus swing trainer from them, not sure. Have an abiding memory of an ad for a driving iron that went forever, big guy hitting it 300+. Also knife fairway woods advertised by David Peoples. Some of it was ok....ish.

 

[Owen_Thomas_14]

My brother had the Big Easy irons and the K1 Speed driver and actually played off single figures. My mate currently games(love saying that ) the Knife fairway wood

I can stream it, there's a lot of LPGA coverage and some strange adverts

I moved out of my parents house a few months after uni. Spent a summer overhauling their garden then left for Hampshire.

 

[jim8flog]

My mate had the K1 driver until I pointed out to him that he just been sold a nonconforming club by JJB. He successfully got it switched for the conforming version by them.

 

[jim8flog]

Ah yes, Big Break.

Didn't he go on to great fame in another TV programme.

I had one of those, more like dog excrement. So easily taken in by the advertising spiel when I was new to golf.

I'm sort of hoping that the new sky golf channel would be something similar but without all the guff. Think this may die off though if they lose any more coverage.
