Does anyone remember seeing the documentary where the old women in the Outback were chasing feral cats and clubbing them over the head to bring back and eat for dinner? I was telling someone about it, but I can't remember the name of the doc. Can't seem to find it with the googleizer and I want to show it to a friend.

In a country with 100 million sheep and 25 million kangaroos, they chase feral cats? Possible I suppose.

Apparently, feral cats are a huge problem. These older women, 65-80 or so, grab a burlap bag and a big stick. They find a cat hiding by a bush and whack the bush. Cat goes screaming to another bush. Woman walks over and whacks that bush. Cat runs again. After three or four runs, the cat, built for speed, not endurance, can't run anymore. Old woman whacks cat on head and stuffs it in the bag. Rinse and repeat. After they've caught however many, they take the cats back and cook them on a spit over an open fire. The show was something like NG, but I can't find the darn thing. If anyone recalls, i'd appreciate it.

all I found was this bbc report from 2007: [URL=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/6974687.stm]http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/6974687.stm[/URL]

Thanks. I'll keep looking for the doc, too. It was actually very interesting. The cat thing was just a small part in a segment.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
