Some very good points.. This is all very much relatively new and that's why I feel it is in a grey area.. Heck, how long did it take them to shut down Napster and Kaza? If it was so black and white they would have shut it down immediately IMO.. Instead it grew into almost a 100m user network..

That seems like an incredibly shallow view of why it took so long to shut down Napster. File sharing services have legitimate purposes; they're just often overwhelmed by the illegitimate ones.

As far as the DVD I agree with you.. It would be pretty tough to tell someone not to show it to someone else for example.. So, if we use the aimpoint DVD as a case someone could technically buy it and then when ever one of his buddies visited he could say hey did you hear about this and show him the video.. I understand that they might not get the whole experience, but aimpoint put the DVD to teach people and not to snare them into going to an instructor.

How do you know why Mark produced the DVD? I happen to have a pretty good idea because, as one of his instructors, I have participated and read conversations in which this is the topic. The two main reasons:

  • Make money
  • Spread the word about AimPoint and drive interest, which drives students to instructors.

      Water in Bunker

      By anaveragehacker ·

      A sand trap is not supposed to have 3 inches of water in it. To me that’s temporary, casual water. Just like if your ball lands in a deep rain puddle in the middle of the fairway. I would have gladly hit out of any spot in that bunker. I understand that it’s a different rule. I just think it’s a dumb rule. You are penalized because it rained.  Here’s what I think is the dumbest rule in golf, and all sports for that matter - professionals playing for millions of dollars in a tournament have to carry around a little pencil and scorecard to keep their score and sign it, when there are big scoreboards all over the course and on tv. Can you imagine the Knicks losing because they didn’t count their score correctly? Like I said, I love the game, but it’s time to move into the 21st century already.

      Could course committee have an MLR option to declare this bunker GUR?

      Sorry, I will disagree. You got a penalty because you hit it somewhere and didn't want to play it from there. Bunkers are not the general area. If you had hit it into temporary water in the general area, you'd be entitled to relief. You hit it into a hazard, a bunker. Why should you get free relief when you hit it into a bunker? If someone else hit it into a different part of the bunker, without water, they'd not get a drop for free out of the bunker. Heck, it'd cost them two strokes if they didn't have an ACC and wanted to drop it out of the bunker.
