How to make the Golf Channel Better...

Subsonic

I know we will get the usual more golf less commercial snapper heads, but what are some ways they could really improve?

I always liked the Big Break franchise...

Good concept ruined by more talking than actual golfing.
Same as their telecasts.
To me, they spend too much time talking about Tiger, even if the subject is not relevant to him.
The Cut is good as well as anything Inside the Ropes.
As for "better", I think that shark was jumped ages ago.

Big break was decent. Maybe they could do some shows on equipment. How about a reality show about a chronic club ho.😁 I think we have a few people who could send in there resumes.

I like the Playing with a Pro franchise. Always seem to get some nuggets of info that are worthwhile.

I think it would be nice to see more focus on Amateur Golf.

Maybe a how to show about Golf... How to Play... Etiquette... Club Repairs...

Topless hosts or our choosing?

I like the old classics like Shell's Wonderful World of Golf. Hope they keep it going.

sdandrea1 I also love the old shows like Shell's WW of Golf, Challenge Golf (Arnie & Gary taking on two other pros), All Star Golf, etc. They used to do lots more with instruction than they seem to do today.....I'm not too interested in the talk shows that they show over and over again....

There was some other golf channel I had a few years ago. I can't remember the name of it. They had a show that chronicled a business that went around to the golf courses in the South collecting golf balls from all the lakes. It was cheaply produced but fairly entertaining.

I think the Golf Channel just needs content. Content does not need to be expensive to be entertaining.

Yep. When I turn the channel to Golf Channel, it's like walking into an old house that still has wall-to-wall shag carpet and cheap veneer paneling on the walls.

Not that there's anything wrong with that, but time marches onward.

I agree on equipment, club repair, fitness with the TPI guys, lessons... I looked forward to watching "“The Golf Fix". The playing lessons from the pros was good too. I like the LD stuff too mostly for the swing breakdowns.... things that help us improve.

Im not a fan of them shoving the Collegiate shit down my throat. Bad enough watching it but then it’s repeated every 2 minutes.

I know they are done with morning drive. The women brought that down I think. I’d rather have Kelly Tilghman back. I have no idea why they wouldn’t put the repeat of the morning episode on at night when people are home from work instead of a repeat of some random PGA event from 1998.

This is a pro bono focus group for Golf Channel.

I just want them to play Tommy's Honor and Bagger Vance all the time.

The only thing I watch on the Golf Channel is golf, the occasional golf movie, and the major preview shows. That's it.
