Playing sports in high-school and college I had several coaches that acted this way from time to time.  Everyone is different, but it never did anything to motivate me.  Like others, I just mentally checked out during the rant and focused on the next race, game, etc.

I think the fact that coaches jobs (tenure, pay, etc.) are so results based that you get these melt downs every so often from someone feeling the squeeze.  Do I think its warranted?  NO.

It's basically a caveman style approach to motivation, with fear as the primary driver.  And, kids are softer today than the previous generation but we are softer than the generation that came before us as well.  It's a by product of an advancing society.

      My Swing (Gestate0560)

      By gestate0560 · Posted

      Posted a couple swings here. I think my attempt to blend the movement still results in a more “around” back swing?

      PXG Brand

      I never heard dislike for them.  From my perspective, they are just like any other club. Though, they were always probably over-priced, until recently as other club manufacturers have been raising prices the past 5+ years. You had to wait for them to go on sale, which you can get them closer to other club manufacturers.  They sell good clubs. Nothing crazy..

      Why do so many people dislike PXG clubs and constantly criticize them? All the folks at my club and especially online, I never hear good things about them except from people who bought them and defend them. They look fine to me but curious is there some sort of quality issue or is it just stereotyping the buyers.

      ShotScope LM1 ($200 Launch Monitor/Speed Radar)

      I have the LM1 launch monitor and I’ve been very impressed. I agree with your assessment and it’s very accurate for me and ease of use is wonderful. The price point of $199 is very hard to beat with this form factor and performance. I was previously using a PRGR.
