"it doesn't look good to watch on TV"

Right. Just don’t show it on TV.

@DeadMan and I regularly pull our hair out at their takes on the rules. Or distance.

No, it's just extra stupid.

They're particularly bad on the Rules of Golf type stuff.

I listened, and its fairly typical stuff from Aimpoint detractors.

What an absolutely horrible take.

That was my gut instinct. I have never heard anything about Aim Point being controversial with regards to the RoG, so I was surprised to hear what Soly said, and the rationale didn't make any sense to me. I don't think the slow play is Aim Point's fault. Aim Point is on my golf wish list and I thought maybe Soly was aware of something stirring about Aim Point and RoG.

Generally I tune out when the NLU crew discusses distance or rules stuff.

Cool - I owe you a PM on that. Looking forward to it.

    • Day 23 - Back to full swing work, trying to swing loose and feel the club head. 
    • Yet here we are. I don’t disagree that we should expect spectators to behave on any event, not just The Masters, but that’s not the case. There’s a sea of phones out there on any other event and a lot more incidents with spectators. Why shouldn’t we praise decent behaviour when it is often lacking in these days? There are plenty of golf related events to write negative articles about. I like when there is positivity to write about instead. Not that I expect them to behave at any other event like they do at Augusta just because it gets praise, but it’s nice to see positive spin on things. There are more than enough articles about rowdy spectators and cheating players. I think you nailed it in the first line: “grumpy old man”. 😉
    • Day 275: mirror work for a bit while watching TV. Working on cleaning up a few things in my lower body stuff. 
    • Yeah, I take your point. Perhaps you've just identified the other side of the same coin: maybe there is very little to celebrate about pro golfers as people, so the golf media are clutching at straws trying to find something.
    • Go ahead and name three things that, in the world of golf, have been more praise-worthy in the last three months. I'll wait. It's not like they got Congressional medals or something.
