What Is the Future of Online Golf News?

[Matt Saternus]

What I mean was, a lot of those tips are for people with specific problems. 97% of golfers slice, so if you don't slice, a lot of the tips are useless. Also, they produce a lot of conflicting articles. One week it's most tour players hit down on the driver, so you should too, the next week it's well, you aren't a tour player, you need to hit up on it, blah blah blah. I read them because I like reading but I don't use them unless it fits what I already like.

 

This is my take on the tips also, and I don't play to a 3...yet. If you tried to incorporate every tip in every issue you'd go bananas. I know this because my dad does, and he is in a constant state of frustration.

With the computer though, the great Haney article in GD could have had video rather than stills...

Not saying to use all of the tips, just that a magazine with videos of tips rather than stills would be helpful. Hence iPad version of GC.

Sorry if I was not clear on that.

Sorry, I didn't scroll up far enough to read your comment. I totally agree with that, videos > still pictures. A lot of times the pics and descriptions don't get the point across the same way that a video and audio would.

The Ipad makes for some interesting On-Line Magazine thoughts. Portable, sit on your lap, touch screen, no folding monitor. Things translate to this new media format very well.
