Hey guys, just wondered if this is the place all the TGC guys went to?  TGC used to be hopping, but since they dropped Disqus the place is almost empty, wondered if this was the next best place, and were the folks all went

The guys who were already here probably couldn't tell you. We see a lot of traffic and are happy to have ya.

I'm a former TGCer and for me this is the best golf forum I've found.  I DO participate on another one, but this is the better of the 2, IMO.  In a lot of ways it is way better than the old TGC forums ever were.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

Is it GC or TGC? I wandered there and I can't even find it, the URL /forums is broken. Methinks NBC errr Comcast errr Evil Empire wants you to tune in and watch commercials and buy Viagra. I'm a cordcutter, WTF are commercials? I appreciate that there's GC to telecast tourneys, I really do, but the rest of it? Spit. Patoohey. I do my own programming via what's on YouTube et al and that's better.

It seems like THE golf channel has about three commercials and play them in a loop about every forty five seconds ad nauseum.

ok, enough....Stacey's mom has got it going on.

Pretty sure they dropped the "The" a few years ago.

That's how good the branding is. Years and I forget the exact name. Both recent threads say TGC.

I guess the dropped the "The" to make is sound more important...fact is everyone calls it THE golf channel, even the tour pros, so all of the money they spent rebranding has been one huge waste. I continue to use it just because it somehow makes me able to remind them they aren't what they think they are or should be. Not a good reason I know, but my way of telling them to step it up. I look at the THE golf channel as a failure in realizing potential. The infusion of NBC has helped a lot, but until they really clean house.....Tighlman, Lerner, Isenhower, the entire crew of morning drive they really aren't much better than the local stations covering high school basketball. Some real pros are needed, currently they're populated by a collection of wannabees.

    • Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.
    • Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.
    • That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.
    • This is the part I don’t get. He’s not even kind of sandbagging, he’s blatantly doing it and submitting scores that are verified to be incorrect. How he’s not banned from competition is beyond me.
    • He's right in what he's saying.I also have done this experiment with a golf shaft swinging with one arm at a time.one arm at a time is for me very fast but both hands together are very slow ..I got my 17 year old son to do this experiment and he swung very fast with either hand and he swung very fast with both hands together..My conclusion up to now is ; I'm not using my wrists properly but I not a 100 percent sure just yet..I will keep trying to fathom this out .I'm a 12 handicap and my son is 3.9 at Westlancs..
