Playing helps you appreciate what you're seeing on tv.

At 32? Hell nah. I played from 11-15, and picked it back up at 31.

Yes. It's the fastest way for you to start enjoying it.

Lots of pros in Baton Rouge too.

Never


Just be prepared to spend a lot of time and money on it


But the returns are well worth it... You don't have to be great, just seeing improvement every time you go out there makes it worth your energy

No.

I hate playing and love watching it on TV.

Your argument is invalid.

Before I was 30 I probably played 5-10 times. Mostly scrambles. Now it's a problem if I don't play 5 times a month.

I watched it before, mostly majors but now find myself watching every weekend. Bad when you can spend an hour watching on the range. Which btw is a great addition to golf channel. I think there should be more pro tracer.

Old people with failing eye sight love pro tracer.

Agreed.
