If you didn’t have The Golf Channel in the 90’s through the 00’s, you really have missed out.
I remember getting it on my cable package in ’97 and dropping it in 2016 when we cut the cord because it no longer offered value of any amount for me, but the first ten years I watched it, there was gold in them thar hills.
Ben Hogan will be spinning in his grave, I’m sure, to hear about how Bryson DeChambeau shot a final round 58 in his LIV event at Greenbriar to win out, using a massive training-wheels driver to do so.
You all know my opinion by now, I’m sure, on the ridiculous aspect of professional golfers using equipment that is so forgiving due to the fact that there is no “pro equipment,” just the same giant and forgiving driver heads and low-spin balls that any amateur can buy in the stores.
I was saddened to read today that Dick Fosbury passed away yesterday at the age of 76 from a recurrence of lymphoma.
I have often pointed to Fosbury as an example of how you can do anything with any type of technique but that only one technique is optimal.
Again, I am reacting to the Tweet and do not know or care who the person posting it is.
I’m sure he is not the only one doing this, so let’s just look at the content, shall we?
