Definitely wouldn't spit on the green!!! Throwing clubs is only warranted when you hit an amazing shot. Excitement of chipping in or other cool shots all brings out a club fling with style......

You get style points for that...lol

I am in agreeance with the concept of the Golf Channel actually focusing on golf.

Jeez DD, next thing you'll want The Weather Channel to focus on the weather or a news channel to focus on the news.

I'm not trying to be funny, but I really think something like The Morgan Cup would make very compelling television, as opposed to Haney or Pipe Dream, which I don't watch. And/or show Shell's Wonderful World of Golf.

Agree that The Morgan Cup would be much more compelling than most of what is on now.

It's really just sad.. even when the event is running, the announcers are more concerned with talking crap than actually SHOWING play. I'm honestly happy any time that Faldo isn't announcing.

On the shows subject, I don't think I'm necessarily against them. Sure, I HATE the reruns of Haney and Pipe Dream (Burk is a douche). But I think all of use would be perfectly happy watching shows where amateurs play eachother or have challenges to complete (ie the Big Break). Heck, I never saw any of the seasons and would like to catch up! We all just want to see people whacking the ball around instead of "personalities" jabbering constantly.

Hey maybe you just hit on an idea. It could be like pinks on the speed channel. You could play somebody for their sticks. Lol

It was a pleasant surprise to have David Feherty in the booth today. More golf with David!

And bring back the Academy series.

Haha now that's an idea!

They only cut to him two times. One was on the second hole where he wasn't happy with his shot shaping.. Something about him feeling stiff and not being able to hit a golf shot

Then another one where he said he had been to the hospital a couple of times for his stomach pains. He was talking to Freddie who really didn't seem too interested.
