Your Subject on Golfing Mastermind?

[Gasp]

It doesn't have to be something you know alot about, though it might help, but something you might enjoy studying.
For instance MVP's might be "The benefits of custom fitting"

Mine would have to be "The Majors pre the introduction of steele shafted clubs"

 

[MikeH]

after a lunch time spent hearing JezzE waxing lyrical while munching on a mid-sized bowl of salad it'd have to be...

...Jezz Ellwood's round in the Challenge GM match last Friday

If I have to hear about how well he drove it round the Jubilee one more time...!

 

[GB72]

Mine would be 'Drivers that I have wasted money on to try and cure a slice that do not work'. Could write a book on those.

 

[HTL]

This is when I go all geeky and put my Sociology of Sport cap on.
I would pick: - Hegemonic masculinity and over conforming to the norms in the modern game.

Or Di Stewart. (YUM)

 

[Atticus_Finch]

Specialized subject? "The bleeding obvious" Sorry, couldn't help it. I'm a huge Fawlty towers fan.

erm... The life and career of Ben Hogan for me probably.

 

[John_Findlay]

May as well make it easy for myself.....Tiger Woods, the wilderness years.

Shouldn't take a lot of scoobing.

 

[MVP]

I like the post Gasp! Think you cracked it for me!

 

[medwayjon]

Cobra equipment!!!

 

[tpred]

Would have to be Scotty Cameron

 

[madandra]

For me it would be Drivers from £18.79 to £239.99

 

[Basher]

Mine would be "Fashion faux pas" a study of the life and times of Ian Poulter.

 

[toonarmy]

The Big Comedy Book of Golfer's Names (USA edition).

Slazenger K1 drivers and why they are the best (see also FAST irons, Huxley rotanets and golf-improving socks)

 

[RGuk]

For me....only 2 choices.
"realgolferuk.....the wilderness years" (sorry J_F)

"swing weights and shaft properties of Callaway woods, 1994-2008" yawn, yawn.

or (now making 3 choices!)

"secrets of how to talk off scratch (and how to know so much about the golf swing and still not get into single figures)"


Failing that......"used car prices on collectable Fords 1988-2008"......oohh, whoops, wrong forum....

Don't you just love the minutae of this sport? I'm sure the board of every golf club pays a nominated member to secretly adopt this role in the interests of light relief.

Life would be so dull without the asides that such buffoons provide. Surely a stock characature of the golfing fraternity and grist for a UK based golf spoof movie. I feel a thread coming on....

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Medal rounds - how to get snatch defeat from the jaws of victory (otherwise known as another double bogey on the 16th!!)

Every bloody time I get into a winning position.....

 

[Parmo]

Slicing.

 

[Teetotal]

"How the hell did that not go in?" - hit ball directly at cup, spins round, bounces out.

The lies that one is heir to - or
the quality of rough in South East Central Britain
