If you're interested in being a moderator, please share the reasons why here, as we'll look to add 1-3 moderators over the next few weeks.

Duties and obligations and perks:

  • Check in on the forum regularly.
  • Participate in the staff "Slack" group.
  • Manage some posting on the forum (typically this involves merging posts into existing topics).
  • Occasionally we have to hand out a warning. This isn't done if you're participating in the topic - other moderators make their own decision in such cases.
  • Access to review stuff, and the soft expectation that you'll occasionally review some things.

Ideally, you already visit the site pretty frequently, and really, we need to moderate so infrequently this isn't a big-time thing. Most people here are good people, and we all have a passion for the game of golf in common. Plus, regardless of which moderator does anything, including our dedicated moderator @The Committee, I get the blame for it. 🙂 So you'll be fine!

I would like to also thank the guys we recently removed from the moderator list for their many years of service. We wouldn't be where we are without them. Thank you!

I would be interested in being a moderator. I frequent the site pretty much every day, but it's mostly reading topics. I'd like to become more involved and get to know everyone better. The site has given me so much information and opportunities to meet up for play (even though I have yet to make one of those opportunities) that I'd really like to give back in some form or fashion other than being a supporter.

Okay. You'd be good, I think. We'll talk soon - I want to see if there are a few others so we can have one conversation instead of two or three staggered similar conversations. 😄

I love this site and I’ve gotten to know a good handful of the members here, and I visit the site several times a day. I love the game of golf, and I think I would be good as a moderator.

I’d definitely be willing to be a moderator. Been around almost 10yrs and visit the site very regularly to check things out. Obviously have golf experience and teaching.

I'm willing and interested as well.  I'll be transitioning into retirement over the next year or less, and will have more time available if needed.  I've enjoyed my time here from the first, and really value the effort you and the mods put into it.

I'll send a PM out to a few of you.

    • Day 113: 4/18/24 Stack training progress check after finishing my 6th program, and 4th Full Speed Spectrum Training session, which is recommended for my next program.     Gained 1 mph with driver, 195 g, 95g. Maintained with 280 g , and gained 2 with 145 g. Lost 1 mph on both lead and trail arm. Felt like I lost distance in my last round…
    • Please forgive the sweaty shirt.  Just got off the treadmill and decided to do my Evolvr drill.  
    • I'd agree that 4w seems like the right play here. I'm not a course designer or anything but that hole looks like it could be so much more fun if everyone played from those front 2 tee boxes that are right outside your shot cone and they cut down most of the trees down that left side of the fairway. That would give risk reward to long hitters who want to try and push it up to that left fairway, allow more players to reach that second fairway, and still allowing it to be perfectly playable for someone who only hits driver like 150yds off the tee.   Yeah it looks like 4iron aimed at that inside edge of the right bunker is the play there, especially if you don't expect a 20mph tailwind again. If it is down wind again, 5iron would be just fine too, it'd still get you inside 150yds for your approach.  Keep in mind tee marker locations too, you measured that one from the back so if those tee markers are moved all the way towards the front of that box then 5 iron is probably best just to be sure that right bunker is never in play. 
    • Day 1: worked on my drill for my arms.
    • Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
