My friend's father is a boxing promoter so he asked if I wanted to go to a boxing match. It really doesn't appeal to me, but people keep telling me it's different when you're there live. I have a feeling it would be even less appealing live though. Anyway - has anyone ever been to a live boxing match and if so, is it fun?

I have been but it's not my thing.   The choice of seats makes a big difference.    Remember, there is no instant replay and if you blink or get up to use the restroom, you'll miss something.    Usually there are several matches.     The atmosphere is completely different watching live.

A long time ago I was a sportswriter for a small paper up north and one particular summer a televised boxing event was held in town. They had me write a few preview stories leading up to the thing and then grounded me in the office on the night of the fights. Had me watch the damn thing on tv and write something up. 

That was when I started re-evaluating my initial career choice.

      Todd Kolb / Vertical Line Swing

      By keb ·

      I find the Todd Kolb / US Golf TV instruction videos very helpful. I like their simplicity as opposed to the complexity of the stack and tilt and other instruction methods. Thoughts and experiences? I expect some naysayers.

      Older vs Current Putter Weight Differences

      By wetzel1592 ·

      I’m assuming my feel for distance will be better with the heavier setup considering that’s what I got fit into. My putter before the Edel (Odyssey Rossie) had a head weight of 355 grams. I had a tendency with it where pace would be good then all of a sudden I’d blast one way past. I haven’t gotten that near as much with the Edel and I’m guessing it will come back with the lighter Anser. At the end of the day, I just think it would be cool to play a putter that my dad used and the refinished head looks awesome in my opinion.
