We here at The Sand Trap are interested in starting a weekly podcast - something you can listen to on your way to or from work, while you shave in the morning, whatever. It'll be short - 15 minutes or so.

What I'd like to know is what thoughts you have on the format of the show - what segments and things you'd like to see. Here's what I've started sketching out... TGC's "19th Hole" is the only real equivalent, so some of the segments are similar to what you find there.

3:00 - Top News - Talk about the news of the week, whether it's on the PGA Tour, the LPGA Tour, equipment, etc. This would be similar to the first four little pieces on 19th Hole where they talk about the various little things.

2:00 - GolfWRX.com - They're looking to supply a short "equipment news" segment dealing with Tour equipment and new retail equipment.

3:00 - TST Weekly Recap - In other words, we'd look back over the stories published on The Sand Trap in the past week. Jeff does a weekly profile, Josh does links, Cody does his op-ed piece, Don does equipment stuff, Dave does stats, etc. It'd give us a chance to voice our opinions on the work and opinions of others on the site.

1:00 - Listener Email - If someone wants to write in to ask us what we think of something, we'll respond. Perhaps this segment will have more than one email or question, and maybe we can set up a list of questions in the forum and just pick a few each week.

What else would you like to see? What would you change? You have control over the show at this point, so let's hear it!

The podcast would have its own syndicated feed and would probably be listed in iTunes (iTunes Music Store lists podcasts now). It'd be free, and each time we published a podcast, we'd mention it on the site itself and offer links to any of the stories or sites we talk about in the show itself.

I should also mention one other thing: anyone interested in joining weekly or semi-weekly (we will probably "tape" Fridays during the daytime somewhere), please let me know.

Great job on the podcast, I had a good time listening to it as I went along reading the forum. Keep up the good work, maybe have a voting poll once some names come up for the show. I'll be listening.

Cool, thanks. Next week will be better. We'll have... sounds! Music! And a format to stick to.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Clemsonfan ·

      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.

      My Swing (billchao)

      By klineka ·

      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.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By billchao ·

      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.
