Kelly is cute but her golf game is horrible.  5 shots from 125 is bad golf (rough or not).  Natalia should have beat Kelly but she choked under the pressure.  I don't get these girls, so far no one has shown any great skills yet they go on the attack in the elimination round.  If they would just use good couse management and avoid the high risk shots until they have to they'd be a lot better off.

I see a lot of people commenting on Anya's skills but so far I don't see it, she's not that good.  I have no idea who will win as they all have looked weak at some point so far.

The whole concept and format of this show has always short circuited good golf skills--no matter who is on it (the LPGA pro

had her problems last episode commenting on her nerves)  The taping of one show takes most of a day involving long waits between

each crucial shot, with plenty of cameras in their face and direction.  I think if there was more segments of play on a series of holes, what

ever talent the girls have would be better revealed.

Ya, I had a quick chat with a previous winner from here in Canada (Derek Gillespie) at an event last summer. He said its tough, because you warm up and then you sit for HOURS during taping. That really isn't condusive to good play.

In the Ogio Kingpin bag:

Titleist 913 D2 9.5* w/ UST Mamiya ATTAS 3 80 w/ Harrison Shotmaker & Billy Bobs afternarket Hosel Adaptor (get this if you don't have it for your 913)
Wilson Staff Ci-11 4-GW (4I is out of the bag for a hybrid, PW and up were replaced by Edel Wedges)
TaylorMade RBZ 5 & 3 Fairway Woods

Cobra Baffler T-Rail 3 & 4 Hybrids

Edel Forged 48, 52, 56, 60, and 64* wedges (different wedges for different courses)

Seemore Si-4 Black Nickel Putter

We're (I'm) not on a golf show positioning ourselves for entry into pro golf tournaments and equipment endorsement contracts, the ladies from the Big Break are.  There's a difference, but back on topic.

If any of you watched Allison's elimination tonight, watched her tears flow like tiny faucets, and not want to go to her, hold and comfort her---then

maybe you don't have a penis. That aside, her attempt at driver off the deck was really sad.

When she pulled out the driver from the fairway, I thought to myself, "OK, maybe she has this shot. Who knows?" She didn't have it so much I couldn't believe it.

Michael Breed will either teach her how to hit that shot in his show tonight, or tell her to never, never, never do that again.

That's what makes us high handicappers. The golfers on this show are supposed to be sooooo close to their respective pro tours. The golf this season really is pretty awful.

my get up and go musta got up and went..

On Allison's elimination 6' pitch, it  looked like the chains were not set for 6', but about 4' or 5' when you compare it to the guys holding the chain, unless they were 8' tall.  Maybe it was the angle of the camera, but after looking at it several times it still looked like the chain was not 6' width.  Anyone else notice that?

New poster, my take (for what little it's worth) ... Allison was by far the cutest, bummer she's gone. I'm not seeing much love here for Christina, she's the cutest of the girls left. The Columbian chick is terrible, she needs to go soon. Pittsburgh Thick (you know the gal I'm referring to) is annoying - but not as annoying as was Aubrey.

    • This is pretty much how I look at it.  I understand there are times when the piece of mind has value. I think over the long haul I'm money ahead by never buying the extended warrantee. Hell, What do I know? I went to Ch!cago PubIic SchooIs.

    • On my car I got the extended power train warranty. I do read the fine print most of the time. Though at now 37, my eyes aren’t what they were 10 years ago.    The problem with most of these extended warranties on electronics and appliances is you don’t register the warranty with the place you buy the warranty from, which I’ve always found strange. Unless it’s GameStop then you know Alina drops her Switch in the next two years and the screen cracks they’ll replace it. No questions asked.    You buy a slow cooker at Walmart for $50 and the extended warranty is say $6, you have to go through a third party to register your product for the warranty, and it’s pretty damn annoying. Target is the same way. Anything you buy the extended protection on you have to go through a third party.    Why do retailers go through a “broker” for warranties? Because they don’t wanna deal with it? They make me talk to someone from another country, that I can barely understand, when I need my warranty fulfilled.   Sorry for the rant.
    • You may be able to find a regular flex Blueboard on the second hand market. I’m little more than half your age so I swing a shaft that launches pretty low so I don’t have a lot of experience with Regular flex (other than when I try to hit it I miss way to the left).    There are other shafts, such as the newer Ping Alta that I’ve heard good things about. And one that no one talks about. The Jupiter shaft. You can get this shaft for a $100 with a grip and your Ping adapter installed. I was talking to the golf manager at Dick’s Sporting Goods here and he has one in his driver and has nothing but good things to say about it. I thought about getting one for my Paradym Triple Diamond to play it a little shorter, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet.
