I like Nick.

But I like Johnny too, and think both of them have a reputation with many that an honest listening of their commentary would show to be excessive in the negative direction.

I agree. I enjoy what they add.

I got a kick out of Nantz and Finch "disagreeing" on whether McIlroy should have putted or chipped on one of the back nine holes. It was like, I agree with you, but, over and over again.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

I met Faldo outside one of the "niche" burger joints in Winter Park. He just walked up behind me in line.  We were outside on the sidewalk when a lowrider cruised by on the road in front of us, rattling the windows of all the shops along the way.  I looked at him, he looked at me. He said something to the effect of "a vehicle with such class is timeless.."  It was funny.  Seemed like a regular guy, for a multimillionaire sports celebrity getting a burger in his hoity-toity Winter Park Chain of Lakes just-down-the-street-from-his-waterfront-mansion kind of way.

I like Faldo.  He does a good job with commentary.  He has 6 Majors, golf experience and has some good humor at times.  Keep him there!

I also like Miller, and McCord.  Those are my fav 3.

Nantz on the other hand, I cant stand.  Chamblee as well.  Always so critical of everyone and all their flaws and what they should be doing.  How many Tourneys did he win?

There is nothing wrong with Faldo. I like him as well. They need to fire Amanda Balionis. She adds nothing to the broadcast. She is cringeworthy to watch.  And why is she interviewing the players?

Chamblee is one the worst!

Because that's what she adds to the broadcast.

CBS' crew this time around was noticeably bland.  Really sad for the 1st major of the year. 

 

This is a place where the spiciest thing on the course is a pimento cheese sandwich. They like bland! 

I don't mind it being laid back. The golf should be and was exciting.

    • Day 118 - Spent some time working on the full swing. Need to film some swings for Evolvr tomorrow. 
    • playing with cleveland hybrid irons have friends that use hybrids anyone using hybrid irons or hybrids would appreciate fwwdback
    • I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory. 
    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
    • Day 296: did a stack session.
