If you were MikeH for the day...

Actually, I remember watching Top Gear once where James May posted a lap time and then spent the day with Jackie Stewart trying to improve rapidly.

I would commission a section where one lucky reader received a weeks worth of intensive lessons after posting a score to see how much they could improve after 7days.

I actually think this one would be brilliant to see!
 
if i was me i would get all the staff to put their money where there mouth is. and once a month make it a condition of ure contract that you play for skins golf up to the value of a weeks wages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that will sort the men/women from the boys/girls and some bragging rights.
 
Commission an article on playing on all 5 continents in the shortest possible time .

Good thinking! i would do a feature with all staff and selected forum winners here for a nearest the pin challenge!! Not sure if IPC media will like the ROI report though...

Serious answer to the original question, i would do a feature similar to the ping play your best from last year, but with a hand full of committed club players and no corporate sponsor just normal people with the normal restrictions of money, time etc etc. Have a 1 or 2 pager on them each month, what they are doing, results, new kit etc.. maybe throw them a bone every now and again with a pro lesson or something, then an end of year comp where the winner wins something cool like a wild card to some event...

That, sir, is an excellent idea :thup:
 
I'd pester a top pro to turn up on H4H day to hit one shot for every one as they go round... £5 a pop.

Alternatively, please can I join in the Quality Assurance testing of the beers at each of the Open venues...

Without reading past this post yet, there's actually real merit in an article like this and would make for a fascinating read IMO. Wouldn't cost anyone too much either.
 
I would take go to the annual golf expo in Florida at the start of the season and see all the new product launches and then tie up a number of invites with the big manufacturers to play a few top courses (Lake Nona etc) and try all the stuff out before it gets to the UK. I'd invite loyal 11 year staff veterans and two lucky forum members for a week long jaunt
 
Here's an idea for a feature ... can the Forum do better than the pros ? We get a group of those of use who profess that we think we know about swing mechanics and swing faults, and send us off to a range somewhere and try and make each other better ...
Could be the end of the world as we know it
 
if I was Mike for the day, I would stay in bed ........ :rofl:

With all the late night deadlines he has to meet, I wouldnt be surprised if Mike has a sofa bed in his office.....win the auction prize and you could make your wish come true..... you could probably even get Jezz to bring you breakfast in bed!! :rofl:
 
After I get my own full custom kit in the morning, feast on a good lunch, leave for Wentworth in my helicopter. Finish the day by doing a Terry and collecting the award for the best mag.
