If you don't like to read that much may I suggest you view an excellent documentary I recently watched called Uneven Fairways. You may have already seen it but it is an excellent and very informative account of the trials, tribulations and victories of an underated league of players.

Here's the description: Take a rare glimpse into the Negro Golf Leagues, and the African American men who were forbidden to play golf at its highest level, but refused to take no for an answer. Rather than giving up their dreams, they built their own courses, their own tour, and ultimately, their own place in history. While the prize money was slim, each man won something that money couldn't buy: the chance to play. "The Story of the Negro Leagues of Golf" is a groundbreaking documentary celebrating African-American contributions to golf. Produced in partnership with Moxie Pictures, it celebrates the golfers who confronted prejudice and endured indignities for the right to play golf at its highest level. Hosted by Samuel L. Jackson and based on the books Uneven Lies by Pete McDaniel and Forbidden Fairways by Calvin H. Sinnette Uneven Fairways is a groundbreaking documentary celebrating the men and women who had the courage to follow their dreams-and the skill to make them come true. Delve into golf history told through interviews, never before seen footage, and real-life stories from the history-makers of the game, both past and present. Hear how their stories of courage and perseverance changed golf forever.

Agree he is a racist, but #1?  I think some of the Fox News guys or Rush Limbaugh would give him a run for his money.

BTW, anyone else but me think Costas could has been Marty McFly's stand-in in Back to the Future ?

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