Anyone here watches Big Break...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Big_Break
The Big Break is the Golf Channel's reality television program. The show's premise is to award an aspiring professional golfer exemptions into selected events on certain tours. The series debuted on October 6, 2003, and has become very popular, spawning nine subsequent editions (The Big Break II, The Big Break III: Ladies Only, The Big Break IV: USA vs. Europe, The Big Break V: Hawaii and The Big Break VI: Trump National, The Big Break VII: Reunion at Reunion, The Big Break: Mesquite, The Big Break: Ka'anapali, The Big Break X: Michigan) and celebrity versions (The Big Break All-Star Challenge).
Each episode is an hour long, though each season finale is two hours long. The show's chief signature is a giant rock that bears its logo, and a side rock that bears the edition number.

I particularly enjoyed the USA vs Europe one.
The ladies one had too many claws on fangs, kinda overshadowed the game.
But golf skills challenges are always fun to watch, like the Wendys 3 Tour Challenge and The ADT Skills Challenge

The show is great but unfortunately the Golf Channel fits it in between other shows. So you might find it late at night or during the afternoon. There is no set schedule and sometimes they show BB IV then go back to BB III and back again, so you never really feel like you can keep up or know when to watch for the next episode.

I first got to watch the BB with this American Japanese....Hitoshi 'something'.....damm....you should google and see his swing....totally solid....
But you know the funny thing, there was a writeup that he for some unknown reason just could not make it thru the Q school....even with the talent he has....

Yeah! Shaft Skinz is off that show. I like the Hill Shot Golf 360degrees golf mat, can train uphill, downhill & sidehill shots.

Hiroshi Matsuo.
Pretty good player who has competed on the PGA Tour before. His weakness is his putting.
He resides pretty near where I am now. Not playin full time already but have heard he goes round in the mini-tours once in a while.
