Literally....the show was not that great, and it was only 30 minutes. Does anyone else agree?

I don't even plan to watch it. Ever. Any of it.

Ya it was unbearable. I had to mute it constantly. Every now and then I would look up and put the sound back on and I would last about 20 seconds.

I thought it was pretty good. It's better than having to watch old highlights or paid programs. The Golf Channel needs more shows like this to air on monday-wednesday to keep us entertained while we wait for Tourny action.

I agree, better than watching re runs of the 2002 Honda Classic or whatever. It was ok.

I hate John Daly, and this show just reinforced it. I have no -NO- sympathy for the guy. It was his fault he got drunk at hooters and got suspended. His fault he started smoking and drinking. His fault his game sucks. His fault he ate his life away. I hate watching the commercials, and I can't imagine the show being any better. My mother took one look at the commercial and said "he is one messed up guy." That sums it up pretty well IMO.

Reminds me of the old joke about two men complaining about a meal:

"The soup was cold." "The meat was tough." "The potatoes were dry." "And the portions were small."

I wish I had gotten to watch it. He is a somewhat interesting guy IMO. Hope to catch the rerun one of the ten thousand times it plays.

I don't have a problem with the guy personally- far from it. It's his life. I just don't like the show because its terribly uninteresting.

John is a head case no doubt and the Golf Channel did a horrible job directing the show. But John talked about how is pissed away his talent, did wrong by people and wanting to correct it. He didn't blame anyone but himself. Hopefully he can turn his life around..

I do like John Daly and hope that he can work things out and become the golfer he is capable of. On the other hand I'd have to say that as usual the pin heads at TGC groveled and came up with another totally uninspirering series. I will admit that is is better than watching info mercials, but not by much.

    • My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
    • Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.   
    • No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death. 
    • Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area? 
    • I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
