Agree. Why change?

Owch, that's just bad!  The trailer is childish and not something that the average viewer would relate to ... i mean seriously, stop with the pop-up tweets and emojis!  Barf.  The slogan itself is boring, fails to evoke emotion, and is definitely a step back.

Wrong "live" Steven.

It's the "Living Under Par" variant.

Oi, I had the video on in the background and didn't pay attention. if it was live, as in tv, I guess there would have been a comma, as in: Live, under par.

Live, as in living, under par is awful.

The way they cut the UNDER off on the bottom is cheesy.

Horrible, so horrible.

Bad music, awful cuts and swipes, way too much social media pop ups.  It does look like a bunch of 5th graders made it.  Way too much money spent on this turd.

Here is what I see happened.  Some bigwigs son or daughter needed a job, they heard about this and wanted in on it and since they have no talent, schooling or any experience they produced this turd and nobody on the board spoke up cause they didn't want to hurt the CEO's feelings and now we will have to listen to this when watching a tourney and contemplate quitting golf so we don't have to listen to it.

Why have a brand statement that no one understands? And who wants to live "under par" anyway? The term makes sense in golf but sounds like you're living a sub-par life. -Marv

"These guys are good" is much better and that statement has never been more true than now. The talent on tour is pretty incredible these days. I guess the new slogan conveys a similar concept, but the older slogan seems catchier to me.

What about everyone on tour that doesn't live under par? Those that struggle to make cuts regularly? They are still good (These guys are good), but they don't live under par when they are often over par.

It's like explaining a joke.  If you have to do that, it was a pretty awful joke.

Yep, not a fan. 

Also, what happens when we get the US Open and nobody's under par...? Does this mean they're all rubbish?

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

    • Day 134 (26 Apr 24) - played Minnesott today, worked with the mid-irons and approaches (especially the 7i).  Scoring was a little higher, but I was focused on making the needed adjustments to the swing to achieve desired distances.  
    • I honestly believe if they play longer tees by 300-400 yards, closer to or over 7,000 yards, more rough, tougher greens, women's golf will become much more gripping.  BTW, if it weren't for Scottie killing it right now, men's golf isn't exactly compelling.
    • Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.
    • Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.
