Hi All,
Anybody in So. Cal LA District or San Diego District belong to the Golf Channel amateur tour. I' been thinking about joining but would like to hear from you guys as to what to expect. Is it a good time? Are there a bunch of Butt Heads? Just looking for some feed back before I do it.

Thanks Guys and girls

I've been tempted to join myself, my wife keeps telling me to go for it but I think it involves a lot of traveling from what I can see from the tournament schedule for my state.

I think my wife is trying to get rid of me lol.

Yeah, I agree. Seems to a bit of traveling....Might turn it into a vacation when my wife decides to retire in future years. Meanwhile, I'll practice and lower my 28...but it does sound exciting and fun.

Swing Happy My Friends!

I've checked into the series on the golf channel web site and the comments posted by golfers who have played in it. The card is purchased for $200.00, entry fees are as high as $750.00. Most of the postings I read were about guys winning their group by super wide margins (I think there are 6 handicap brackets) and about lax officials who rush the show. To see this, it looks like you spend a lot of money to play with sandbaggers (or crybabies) depending how you perceive the posts to golf channel officials who take your money, herd you thru like cattle and don't want to know about anything.

Ive heard that the traveling is a bit and should be expected if you want to experience 'it.' But one of the things that isnt known about the experience is that the individual tournaments can be very expensive.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 47, June 22.  After work today, I spent 20 minutes in my indoor practice room, hitting about as many balls.  Slow, as slow as I could, 6-iron swings, same priority piece as the past month.

      Day 291 6-22 full, faster swings, focusing on low point, missing towel. Recorded some face on and dtl. Practicing full speed changes is something I wasn't doing enough.

      Day 2 (22 Jun 26) - used the clip the tee drill today - focused on picking the tee and then collecting the divot.  Hit a few hard foam balls later in the session.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Club of the week, my hybrid. Stripe show on every shot. This one was probably the best. About 240 to the green. The ball was on a severe upslope. I hit it just off the back of the green (like 1-ft.

      That will sting for a long time. Had all the momentum in the world.  The on course heckling of WC a bit over the top. IMO, that may have even galvanized him. Kinda like RC. He may have picked up some sympathy too. So boo to the boos. I can't stand him (and it's not just the incidences) but I think when punishment outsizes the crime, the tide tend to turn. He has stuck to "I've earned the hatred" narrative. Smart kid.
