In my opinion I would like to interview Peter Alliss (A golf commentator over in England).
He sounds a nice guy with a good sense of humour and has a lot of anecdotes that would make the interview go quickly.
If he wasn't available then I'd go for Ernie Els

Id interview John Daly. He doesnt take himself too seriously and is happy in his own skin. He also says what he thinks and could tell more than a few stories thats for sure. Next would be the Golden Bear- he really is God, and i believe he provides an invaluable insight in to golf. If Jack hasnt done it, its not worth talking about.

There are too many journeymen on tour who are just corporate automatons these days, so there arent that many from the current generation that would be interesting to interview, apart from Boo Weekly ('i wanna live off the fat a' the land).

Professional Golfer: Freddy Couples- I'd like to walk along with Fred while he plays a casual practice round at Augusta and just listen to him speak freely about his career and golf in general.

Professional at anything else? Michael Jordan

Tiger. I've seen him on talk shows and he seems pretty much like a normal guy who loves golf and people. He jokes around a lot, and isn't a robot like I've seen some pro athletes who just answer the question and stare at the host, waiting for another question.

I would like to interview/talk with Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus. I would like to tell them "THANK YOU" for getting me interested in golf over 50 years ago by having a rivarly that I enjoyed watching on TV (mostly in balck and white). This love of golf has been passed to my two sons who at 34 and 21 are enjoying the game as I do. Each of my sons has independently commented how glad they are I started them playing golf. I would like to thank Mr. Palmer and Mr. Nicklaus for getting a small town boy who was not very atheltically inclinded interested in a game that can be played and enjoyed for a lifetime and which can be passed down to his sons (sorry but my daughter just never took the hook in terms of taking up golf).

    • 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.
