In the hole
 
Am I the only one that is tired of hearing IN THE HOLE even when the pro's are on a par five tee shot. I could maybe understand if it is an approach shot or a putt, but when teeing off on a 575 yard par five. :shocked:

I agree.....these folks that feel the need to shout that are idiots! They shout it on par 4's and par 5's....really??

Ditto- I'm sick of these numbskulls, too!

Ditto,
I turned off the golf tournament today because of the idiots who wait for the split second after the ball contact to yell, "IN THE HOLE". Boneheads!!

You beat me to it - I was going to post this as soon as I got on.

I guess every sport has its share of idiots!

What ever happened to the guy with the John 3:16 sign? Haven't seen that in a long time.

I agree!

Sorry to hijack this thread but another bother to me about broadcast golf tourney is the full screen shot of a golf ball against the sky. Really! What exactly does that shot show? And once you've seen a ball against the sky you've seen them all; and you can't tell the difference between any of them!


Why not get a better camera angle that shows the flight shape of the ball, or the golfer's reaction or something meaningful?

Mikeod 08-26-2012 08:16 PM

Yup, me too. Just so when they go home and playback the recording they can tell their friends, "See, that's me yelling". Idiots is too kind a word for them.

That one is not quite as annoying.

Definitely tried of hearing all that junk during a tournament. Which is part of the reason I seldom watch them anymore. Blame goes to the media because they place those microphones around the tee box and greens for "sound effects" and then you get these idiots yelling for who knows what reason. Personally I do not care about the sounds I just want to watch the players play the game.

paulandjean 08-27-2012 10:42 AM

Never watch anymore,tooooo boring...................

It won't stop until they quit selling beer at the golf course, which they won't because it makes too much money. It's no different at NFL football games, stop the beer sales and you can end the fights.
