A few lessons.................I get that, but a majority of the lessons are done at the centers, not the clubs by the club pro's.

It was a comparison to Country Club Pros and how much time CCP's spend giving lessons. TV Club Pros do not spend nearly the same amount of time.

Feel better?? Understand better??

Hope your day improves.

Yes, thank you.

I was talking about Club Pro's............not the teachers at the academy.

I was not stating facts, I was stating my opinion, from over ten years of observations (in TV)...........comparing Country Clubs I've been associated with vs. TV clubs.

Nope, all good.
(my initial post was probably not framed up the best)

Did play Belle today..........the greens are thick with grass, pretty slow, but at least not on the sh^t list.

Gators are out cooking in the warmth.

3.5 hour round.......................Villages Life is good.

What do golf pro's in TV do???

They don't set up the course for play.
They don't give lessons..............compared to most club/teaching Pro's.
They don't develop a junior program.
They "front & center".
They don't manage pace-of-play.
They don't promote the game.

(IMO)

I've never seen one except in the Magazine.

I understand what you are saying.

I agree.

Some posters post their opinions and limited exposures AS FACT.
