Take an average looking female and put a golf club in her hands she is instantly more attractive and interesting............thats just me.

I was going to harass you for including such a teasingly small picture ... and then I couldn't find anything better.  ;) I'm in as well at the start, however, if it ends up being a bunch of cra

On my face, please.

I agree completely. In fact, if more of this season's immunity challenges involved hitting from the tee, I think the current cast would look very different.  As for elimination, they should play 3 holes, a par 3, a 4 and a 5.

Very solid idea you have there. One of each type of hole would be fair.

As if fair had anything to do with the show. :-$

Would anyone else like to see 'em stir the pot a little?

Throw one decent guy in that mix.  No pro or even scratch player.  Just some schlub playing off an honest 4 or so, and let him play even with the ladies.....including the same tees.  I imagine he'd be sent packing pretty quick, but it'd be interesting/entertaining.

Never happen though.  Imagine the outrage if he actually did well.  We couldn't have that. :no:

So, you want one guy to play with six girls? Cue the porn music. ;)

Better than that......what do they start with, 12? :-D

You can never tell with these silly things, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him stick around for a few cuts.....maybe quite a few.

Yeah, but I would imagine once he reaches his climax, he'd be outta there.

Pretty non-descript episode tonight. Only two things worth mentioning, in my opinion.

1. While I'm glad the two hottest golfers (Renee & Fiamma) still remain, part of me was hoping Fiamma would get the boot for her pathetic decision to stay on a soft 17. I even told my wife who was sitting next to me that this was a perfect example of how women are terrible at game theory. Fortunately, my girl Renee redeemed her castmates with the aggressive (and correct) decision to "hit" on 18.

2. Tom Abbott should be fired on the spot, if not for his terrible golf commentary, then for the mind-blowing comment that Renee couldn't possibly know if Sadena had achieved a 21 or if she had busted. Keep in mind, Sadena only hit two shots, so it would have been statistically IMPOSSIBLE for her to bust. Sorry, but the stupidity of that comment basically ruined the rest of the show for me.

1. I don't find Fiamma that attractive. Would choose Jackie over her. 2. IIRC, if the player didn't hit a number, that would bust them so it was possible that Sedena mishit her wedge and didn't get a number. What is really apparent is that Mary is quite the politician. Should be interesting to see if next episode the little clique gets targeted.

Missing the grid counted as a bust, so statistically she could bust on 1 shot.

I have to say Melanie looks rather fine tonight.

Do you think she got into tv for her wit..?

Truth be told, imho the GC is going down hill. CBS needs to sell it to someone that knows golf. Golf central sucks, cept for Trip, Gary, and special guests. It's like watching a Scripted big network news show..

They think they need eye candy to make a show a hit, welp, got news for ya's...not so.

End of rant.

Disagree on 1, but good point on 2

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Darkfrog ·

      Day 26: Did full swing practice after work. First 15 balls were working on top of the backswing feel, and then tried to incorporate transition feel into the next 15 balls. A's, although this will be my last season of being a fan as they leave for Las Vegas (by way of Sacramento for a few seasons). Hard to see myself rooting for the Giants, but if that's the only MLB in the Bay Area, I guess I might get on board.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By billchao ·

      My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.

      Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.

      By GolfLug ·

      No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death.

      Spark League at Severna Park Golf

      By Paloma ·

      Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area?
