[Todd]

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I am giving thanks for being off until Monday so I can watch all 3 nights!!!

i didnt watch last night but wednesday night was awful. kim is a joke. what were we supposed to have learned from him?

[shortgrass lover]

Yea AK really wasn't much of a teacher, but I still thought he was pretty funny. I still learned some pretty good stuff from Tiger though.

[bogeyhitter25]

I'm "semi-watching" it now. I've only caught glimpses of it and yes, I tend to agree that Kim really isn't much of a teacher, but Tiger's great.

Mostly bad golfers get to hang out with Tiger.........whatever.

Kim is one of the top players in the world. So he doesn't have a systematic way of playing, who cares? You weren't watching some tutorial online. Kim's basic advice is you aren't a pro because you know where to put the ball in your stance or how your swing is picture perfect, it's all feel and practice. I liked his advice when he said if you're hooking right in practice, then you'll play to that when you get on the course and not try to force the ball to do something else. I think you can call Kim a joke when you make a couple million dollars from playing golf.

I notice a big difference from Anthony Kim and Tiger just on their ball position.

Tiger is within 3 ball distance for his ball position on all his shots, while Anthony could be front leg or back leg for his PW depending on how he's striking the ball. I impressed with Anthony Kim that he is able to adjust each day and play the fade all day if he needs to be as long as its not going left, I think this is very difficult for most golfers even pros to be able to adjust so much day in and day out.

chill out, bro. i dont have a problem w/ AK as a player. in fact, he is prolly the only guy on tour that has made me tune in to a televised event since tiger got hurt. what i was miffed about is that he is not a very good teacher, and i didnt learn anything from what he said. the advice that you quoted was nothing new for me, or anyone else who has some clue about what they are doing. the 3 shows were painfully disguised pitches for nike. nothing more. peace out.

sorry i wanst trying to attack you but you simply said he was a joke. So i took it how you said it... and yes i agree with you that the 3 shows were just long nike commercials for their new irons.

exactly my thoughts. what was the women who just started playing golf doing buying a dozen nike blacks? honestly when your that bad the ball doesnt matter.

youre right, i probably should have been more clear about how i felt that AK was "a joke". i meant it strictly in that his insight on the swing, in the context of that particular show, was sorely lacking. JMHO. :)

that's what i was thinking. but i agree this show was just to promote the VR irons, and ONE's. i really didn't learn anything, even from tiger, and deff not from AK. the 2nd show was a complete waste of time out of my thanksgiving day. i do appreciate the effort from tiger and AK though.

[traviswise]

I must agree it was a bad let down. I thought they would get to play a round with Tiger not just one hole but I guess since his surgery he can't.

[jermzkill]

Also, the show put an emphasis in showing that Tiger is not a "tool" rather he is a down to earth, next door neighbor type guy.
