Graeme is reading this thread and wondering what he got himself into.


Thinking the same thing... :-$

Luckily, it appears he has a good sense of humor.

Alright, here we go..... Wow, what a day!  I was so stoked for the day, that over the last couple of days I've had to remind myself that things like this seldom really live up to the hopes and

I just got a call from GolfNow.  I was their top booker in the Orlando area this past year (it helps to book for a small group of nuts just like us) and they asked me if, as a reward, I'd be available

Alright, sorry for the delay, my daughter's birthday was this past weekend and I was tied up.  I'll see if I can't fill in some of the fun stuff now...... Graeme was a lot of fun to play with.

My wife and I were at a Christmas party last night in a downtown hotel.  I got an email from the woman coordinating the thing today but didn't notice it until we had left.  Turned out she was at the Golf Channel Christmas party in the room next to ours.  When I mentioned that we had just left there she said that if she had known, she'd have brought us around and introduced us to all the on-air talent and Nick Faldo.

Crap, that woulda been cool!  Plus, I'm SURE their party was better than the one we were at.

I figure I'll just tell him automatic 2-down presses and leave it at that.  That oughta keep him on his toes.....

Someone already beat me to the punch line. I just wanted to point out that had you met Nick Faldo, I think you would have felt the same as me: that the guy is ****ing HUGE.

True. I saw Faldo at Bay Hill once and was surprised, he's a big boy.

      Question for the group. The course I normally play at has 27 holes - 3 9s that they use to for 18 in the various combinations. Is it okay to declare* if I’m playing front or back when I play 9 on this course? I’m figuring I need to declare before I play a shot. *meaning just say to myself that this is the back 9. Curious what people think. Of course, my only holes left are 13 and 17, so I’m going to declare the back 9 for the rest of the year. Probably only one or two more rounds though.

      This is my opinion as well. I would love to see the LPGA take the lead on this.    This.

      I agree in general. The one way in which the viewer will notice the pace of play is just that "it's been an hour and Nelly Korda or Scottie Scheffler have only played four holes." Or if for some reason they show a lot of shots of players just standing around when they could be showing golf shots. But I think Andy Johnson said it most recently/best, playing fast is a skill, too. I would love for pro golfers to play faster. You'd see the players you want to see hit more shots in the same time than they do now. So I don't disagree with the pace of play stuff, and hope they can find ways to do it. Heck, the LPGA should leap at the chance to differentiate itself in this way, IMO. So: I stand by what I said in that the TV viewer really doesn't notice much about pace of play. It's rare when they do. I support increasing the pace of play wholeheartedly. But my top five reasons don't include TV ratings or viewership.
