Har in the Hat Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I don't know about you,but since Michael Breed has left,the instructional shows just suck and I am no longer intetested in the golf channel (not counting tournaments). the website also is dismal and since they pulled all of his videos, there is nothing worthwhile on the website. your thoughts.

PlaidJacket Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Oh... I don't know about that necessarily. If you watch or do something long enough it will probably get a little old at times. I've even had periods throughout my golf career (amature golf career that is) where I'd take a short break. I enjoyed Breed but his show got a little old-tired. It's not the end of the world. I don't watch any other regular instructional programs they have much. Never been a Martin Hall watcher. His style and delivery just wasn't my thing. I can't comment on TGC website as I don't go there. It's not the end of the world. Maybe some guys here will direct you to other sources. ie...

Shankster Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I'll take all the golf I can get. I don't do the instructional portions, but the replays, movies, EuropeanTour coverage early.

GB13 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I don't care so much for the instructional programs. I don't think you can have the individualized instruction needed to build a good golf swing in a 30 minute TV program directed at every golfer ever. I do enjoy all of the tournament coverage (Euro tour, Web.com tour, LPGA, old reruns, etc.), Feherty, and a few other shows.

PMookie Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Well, no more Morning Drive as of yesterday morning. I gotta admit, about the only times I caught this show was when they were broadcasting from the PGA Show, other than that, I rarely watched.

Mr. 82 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Wow, a 2 1/2 year old thread resurrected from the dead. Speaking of dead, that's Golf Channel in a nutshell. They are moving their studios from Orlando to Connecticut. Tell me how that makes any sense in any universe? Sure, I'll tune in when they are covering actual golf, but to actually tune in to watch 3 talking heads give their (worthless) opinions on who is going to win, and what golfer is doing, or should be doing, or shouldn't be doing. I mean, come on; do I really need another opinion to tell me what I can see with my own eyes? And then they try and predict the winners to tournaments. I mean, that's laughable. Picking who wins a golf tournament is a total crapshoot. And if I had a $1 for everytime someone picked Rory to win a tournament... Hulu just raised their rates from $55 a month to $65. I think the only channel I had watched on Hulu was Golf Channel. They have the local channels, which is the other reason I got Hulu, but I honestly spend most of my TV viewing time on Netflix, Prime, or Disney+. Hard to justify $65 when I watch everything else a ton more. tony@CIC, Rickp, PMookie and 1 other 3 1 Quote G400 Driver XR 4 Fairway 16.5° Fli-Hi Utility Iron - 21° G Series 5-9 irons SM7 46°, 50°, 54° & 58° Ghost Spider S putter Nexus Laser Rangefinder Garmin Approach S20 GPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickp Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I like the idea of a dedicated Golf Channel. The long run shows have run out their usefulness (is that a word?) it’s time for a shakeup with different shows and some new onscreen Talent.Honestly I only watch the Tournaments especially the college kids.

heavygolffeels Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Swing X is a good show. I could care less about the rest of it. Would be really nice if they could somehow work out a deal to show the beginning of golf tournaments before prime time instead of just commenting on it. Even the masters has hours of play that is untelevised.
