I also know Gordy Rush doesn’t endorse crap. If Gordy says it’s good I trust him.

If a guy teaches 2,000 lessons In a year I wound say that’s pretty freaking good.

I called a buddy of mine who teaches at a GolfTEC in Tampa and he said the award is not metric driven. If it were guys in Hong Kong would win every year. Those guys teach around the clock.

I've done the golftec thing. It's good for what it is and helped me. I've defended it here. And I even said it's a good option in the other thread for someone who needs something quickly simply because it (was) cold and wet with no opportunity to hit things off of a range or at a course. And even Ryan would promote that. He's let me test equipment out of the store before.
I'm a fan of Ryan. I said he worked his tail off and he deserved the award. That doesn't mean I think he's the best in the area. You need to get that golftec dick out of your mouth.

I looked at the resume on the webpage and it looked stronger than new rope.

Let me get this straight. You are claiming Ryan is the best teaching pro in BR but you haven't had a lesson from him?

I am not saying he is best. I am just saying if I hire a contractor I do a little vetting. Same with a potential wife or employee. Who do you reccomend. I will try both and see which is better.

So all of your posts are about golftec and defending ryan but you've never been there?

I listen to 104.5 Espn a lot and generally when they personally recommend something it’s pretty good. I have heard Gordy Rush and Matt Muscona both mention they got better there.

I have Friends who have been, who I use to beat, and now these guys are beating me. I just wanted to see if anyone had any other suggestions. I am basing it entirely off what’s out there from an information standpoint.

The fact that you're using radio endorsements to suggest a place you've never been to while arguing with someone who's actually been there and experienced the service (while paying for it) is a little questionable, yes?

How can a guy teach 2,000 lessons in a year and not be decent? Wouldn’t you go out of business? And ads are different from personal endorsements. An ad is an ad but when someone says I got better or I saved 2,000 by switching insurance. That’s a personal testimonial now I guess it could be not true. But I know the difference between an ad and a testimonial I graduated LSU in advertising and marketing.

This is fricking laughable. Do you know how radio sales work?

If a guy tells me he saved 1,200 by switching to relief windows that’s a testimonial not an AD. It’s different.
Posted on 2/21/18 at 11:18 am to Zamperini2014
What the hell are you arguing now? That people aren't paid for their testimonials? That testimonials can't be ads themselves? Or that a testimonial, while true, means nothing without context? "I saved $1200 on my electric bill with relief windows.... over a 2 year span... after upgrading my AC unit too... and we stopped leaving our backdoor open so much... and those trees we planted by the windows are 4 feet taller."
