Hey, fair enough - just saying it was more about the eye candy than golf, and I can get eye candy elsewhere.

But can you beat eye candy AND golf in one show? Hmm

I like the show, just my opinion :)

Me too. I watched it. Some of the girls hit some clutch shots. Better than watching the Fanau (sp?) brothers act like a couple of infants.

Was anybody else confused on last nights(episode 2) elimination challenge? I saw the first two girls hit 4 balls, but the last two only hit one...did they edit out all their other shots or what am I missing? I even hit the rewind to try to figure it out but couldn't.....????

On each series of shots, they got 2 (or 3, I forget) attempts to shoot at the targets. On the last series of shots, they could hit as many as 4 shots, but if they missed the green before they hit 4 shots, they were done. Both of the people you watched happened to miss the green on their first shots.

Makes sense now, thanks for clearing that up.

I gotta hand it to Maiya. She really pulled through in the clutch in that first episode's elimination challenge.

The Up and Down challenge of the second episode was pretty neat. Carling got it done.

Haven't really paid enough attention to the others to make a pic for the finales.

Apparently that challenge went 7 rounds between Carling and Ryann, before Carling emerged. At least one time both players failed to get up and down, otherwise they matched clutch efforts. Taryn mentioned that during her interview with Golfgal this week. Carling also participated.

the only thing i dont like about the show is that the challenges arent explained very well, esp in the first show, i assumed the distance was 30 yards on the chip shots but i dont think they ever said. Same on some of the other challenges as well, i wasnt sure of the distance. Cant wait to see the next show though with Greg Norman on it. Id like to see the girls actually play some holes in elimination but I guess that will come later on in the show.

I agree with the whole "reality show" look. Its definitely a sign that the show is about to jump the shark.

Oh gasp! A reality show with a reality show look. Imagine my shock...

I agree with this. During the first challenge I was constantly rewinding & pausing the DVR looking for specific angles that would give an indication of how far the shot was. It really seemed like the network did NOT want us to know where they were hitting the ball from.

Thats because they dont. After watching the long drive comp., I would think they would be hitting more than 200-220 just because of their skill level. Also, they are using hybrids from 160 out. I think they didnt get the best talent, but instead best looking.

That's my complaint. yea, they're hot but I watch the show for the golf, not to watch them get served drinks poolside by their butler. I live in Florida and I can see hot women in bikinis any time I want. Plus, who do they have taking care of that course, Bill Murray? The fairways look like shit.

As for the level of golf, these chicks are all better than me and all have nice, smooth swings. You won't get tour quality players, that is the point of the show. I watched the past 2 BBs and will be watching this one.

Ryann won on the Futures Tour this week, closing with a 65 to finish -14, then making birdie on the first playoff hole for the victory. She is now 6th on the money list, with a good chance to earn an LPGA card for 2011.

Carling also had a strong finish, 67-68 on the weekend for T16.

That's really impressive, and kind of unexpected. Any word if wither of them was using Adam's clubs or looked like they have been on a shopping spree at Dick's Sporting Goods?

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
