FWIW, I have no issue with his size. He's a bit of a character and its fun to have characters in golf.

Okay I am just going to say it. Aesthetically, "Beef" is relatively disgusting to look at. I am sure he is a nice person but I do not enjoy seeing the man blubber and "moobs", let alone the chin beard

Going into the PGA Championship, Beef accepts a new sponsorship with Arby's.

I'm a fan of Beef and hope he's here to stay. He's a normal guy from humble beginnings...His dad drives a bus and his mom serves school lunches. His appearance may be rough but his swing is smooth and I hope Arby's paid through the nose for him.  and apparently his autograph is just "Beef" http://www.golf.com/tour-and-news/beef-johnston-exits-pga-championship-style.  Question is, could he join the list of other single-named celebrities?...like Sting, Madonna, Cher, or maybe more realistically Coolio...or Fabio?

He's getting a lot of press in the UK too. Some village somewhere is missing its idiot... And he wasn't even the top English player at either Troon or the PGA-that was Tyrell Hatton both times. The media is a funny thing.

The dude is always smiling, very likable, he's having fun out there.  Hatton may be a better golfer but he looks like he hates golf, always scowling and complaining.  Hatton needs to be a lot better for that kind of  on-course behavior to become marketable.

Yep, I am pretty sure you are right in what you say about Hatton. But he is the only one of the two who has a chance of making the Ryder Cup Team (although I don't think he will). Beef is smiling because he can't believe his luck!

I would venture to say that by making it fun Beef is getting kids (16-25) into the game. I know of one personally.

That's better.

He's a good dude.  Yank like me could only understand about every 3rd word he said but he had a smile on the whole time so I figure it was happy talk.

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
