Thanks!  I did notice this feature when searching for a playing partner.  Unfortunately, most of the groups have too few members to make them of much value.  I wonder if there would be a way to increase their use to make them more valuable?  There is a Michigan golfer group, with only 6 members, but I wonder how many are unaware this exists.


It's what we have. If people don't use it, nobody will be aware of it. The SoCal group is relatively healthy because people use it.

Clearly we're not talking about mental health. :-P

Not sure if this has been discussed yet or would be possible, but it might be cool to see a reward points system. A way it could work is people earn rewards based on how they contribute to the site. So everytime a member posts they earn points, maybe if they give good feedback on a swing then they can be awarded points, etc...  Something fun also would be when a member reaches a certain level of points they would win something golf related.

Well, I learned something new.


Every post also has the "thumbs up" button, so your "reputation" can increase too.

It would defiantly be better for new posts to go on the top not the bottom. Also maybe sign in with the fingerprint scanner if possible.

I disagree with having newer posts on top. I think it'd be harder to follow the conversations that are going on.

It may seem that way but I know from other websites and chats that it is most definantly not

Nah. If I'm coming into a thread for the first time and it's already on the second or third page, the first thing I have to do is click to go to the last page. I don't like that at all.

I agree some of the sites that have bottom to top posting, I get lost, although the iris scanner might be cool.lol

Also maybe sign in with the fingerprint scanner if possible.

I agree. I like to read from top to bottom :-D so it is easier to go from one post to the next that way.

How about weekly challenges? @Golfingdad tried to hit a ball out of a kiddie pool, maybe we can have a weekly challenge of an abnormal shot or trick shot or whatever. Anyone who wants to try the challenge gets to video 3 attempts. We could pull ideas from Big Break or just create our own. Gentlemen's agreement that you upload your attempts regardless of success. Lets get some communal mirth going on!

A history of your handicaps and all your personal information would be nice.

When I look back at some of my posts like "First Birdie" and I can't remember my handicap or equipment at the time I did it.
