Hello again GIH Fans!
Here are a couple of recent emails and questions from your fellow fans, we wanted to be sure you had the chance to enjoy them as much as we have.
Thanks Eddie and Dave for your questions and comments!
D&M
From Eddie S:
I just discovered your shows. I love it. I down loaded all of them on my Zune so I can take to the course with me. I will continue to follow you guys.
From Dave in Scotland:
Guys, could you so something on ball below the feet (hanging lies) and ball above the feet? Cheers
To Dave in Scotland:
Hi Dave, Great idea! We will do an episode on uneven (hanging) lies. For now, be sure to aim to the right (if you are right-handed) when the ball is above your feet and grip down about the same distance the ball is above your feet. The more loft on the club the more right you need to aim. We will get into why this happens. Practice some shots to get a feel. For a ball below your feet, you will need extra knee flex to get down to the ball, aim to the left and concentrate on keeping your balance and keeping your eyes on the ball thru the shot. This will get you going for know, keep an eye out for video. Thanks for your note, hope all is well in Scotland.
Coach Dave
Dave's (Scotland) reply:
Thanks for the response! I'm telling anyone who will listen about what you guys are doing. Your approach is bang on. d

Played a quick 9 tonight after work - the weather was gorgeous and the course was wonderfully empty and quiet.
I started badly as usual, making double bogey on #1, a long and straight par 5. Then I went bogey, bogey on the next two and I was actually feeling pretty good after hitting some really solid shots. On the 4th at Tashua Knolls, a par 4 dogleg left hole with bunkers all around the green I found myself in the sand.
No kidding, I thought back to episode 38 and opened my club face wayyyy up to the point where I thought Coach Dave would say, OK, that's far enough. I took a deep breath and a full swing. The ball floated high up and over the lip and gently landed on the fringe and rolled to about 10 feet! I made bogey and continued my round.
On the 9th hole, I teed off with a god awful duck hook that actually ended up on the far side of #1, about 50 yards left. I spotted the 150 yard marker and pulled out a 3 hybrid as I eyed a big bunker sitting right in front of the green.
I hit a terrific 2nd shot that looked great but ended up in the bunker. I was nervous and excited to give my new sand skills a whirl and again, opened my club face wayyyy open, then turned it just a tad further, hearing Dave in my head saying "more, more, more."
Once again, a took a full swing and once again, the ball lofted up and out of the bunker, landing 20 feet from the hole and rolled down towards the pin, stopping about about 12 feet, pin high.
Wouldn't you know it, son of a gun, I made par with a firm putt and was totally shocked. That's what Golf is Hard TV is all about!
I like rolling down hills, spinning out of control like some crazed 6 year old. I do not however, like a severe downhill lie while playing golf. That said, Golf is Hard TV episode 40 teaches us the basics of how to play this shot.

We're taking a risk here at Golf is Hard TV. Episode 39 was a blast to film but might very well bore you to tears, let's see what happens. We sat down and watched as some golfers finish up their round at the 9th on Tashua Glen, a local executive course. In this episode, we also meet Mike who for some reason, decides to toss his ball away after making birdie.
