Inside Social Golf - Forum Article

[AndyP]

Has anyone had the chance to read the latest issue (Feb) of Inside Social Golf (http://www.insidesocialgolf.com.au)? (Yes, I know it's the first day of the month). If not, have a look through (hardcopy or online), particularly pages 30-31, where you'll find an article about golf forums. In fact the article on page 30 is about our forum, including an interview with yours truly. :D

Have a read, and give your thoughts.
I wouldn't be surprised to see quite a few more members join up over the next couple of months, and hopefully from all around the country.

I think it's pretty exciting for us.

Nice article that. Good to see we got most space compared to the 2 southern sites.
Very exciting.

Just picked up the Inside Social Golf newspaper from Golfworks. Had a quick read. Good job AP. And the fact that ours emphasised the social games rather than crap was a good touch. Oh and the fact that we got more space than the others.... :)

[Jarro]

Nice work P, you're a legend !

[Bruce]

Nice work Andy.

You'd never guess what a pack of pricks we are from reading that.

[Courty]

Nice stuff, AP. You didn't come across the slightest bit grumpy. ;)

I can see Bebox turning purple and steaming from the ears at the fact that OZgolf got more real estate than ISG. :twisted:

[Eag's]

Just had a read of the online version, well done Andy you summed up this place very well :smt023

[PeteyD]

Good stuff.

[jimandr]

Well done Andy.

We come up smelling like roses compared to the others, which is only fair.

You did very well to keep this a secret from us, too.

[Moe Norman]

haha ISG the most active through weight of numbers.

only because subscribers to the site our now counted as forum contirbutors!

[just]

I had a read online, good stuff AP!

[gazgolf1]

Nice work Pee. :)

eh? its been all over Ozgolf for ages :-)

by the way, the guy who wrote this article, reads this forum often, and knows all our names. Behave!

[BrisWesty]

They may win by weight of numbers but we win by weight of column inches! Go AndyP!

[goughy]

Thanks for your kind words Mr P! And to our mystery member writer! Great articles in general. All good for golf forums in Australia. I've been dying for this to come out!

[AndyP]

The editor is obviously a smooth operator by picking up all that beer for nothing.

I just put a post up on ISG regarding the article and within 10 minutes the thread was deleted.... how precious are these people????

Wankers!!

[Courty]

Hehe. Nice work, Shaz.

[BrisWesty]

What. Couldn't they handle the fact that we got more inches?

Shaz,

I did the same thing on ISG last Saturday morning. I always post these things on Saturday mornings as they have the best chance of lasting a while.

I was pretty fair minded as well. All I did was mention the article & said that ISG got a good write up. I didn't mention any other forum.

It lasted 2 hours.

[Flowergirl]

I just read the article. Great job AP.:smt023 But I seemed to miss my name being mentioned.:shock:;)

[AndyP]

Wha? I'm sure I mentioned Peninsula bogans.

It's interesting that iseekgolf doesn't want people to read the paper, because they have a giant ad within the first couple of pages.
Letting social golfers know that these sites are about is good for all forums, in my opinion. Let them make a choice based on what they'd like out of the individual forum.

[Moe Norman]

i reckon the ISG guys might be scientoligists

[PeteyD]

Nah, but they are GolfMachinists.

[WBennett]

Don't publicise the forum too much - you don't want KYCGolfer commentating on every single post here.

Let ISG go - its a tenth the forum it was at its prime, and is only good for baiting newbies these days :)

[Jono]

Good work AP.

If you want to talk about power accumulators and flying wedges, go to ISG. If you want to meet great guys and play real golf, Ozgolf is the place. 8-)

I went and had a look today, first time in months I reckon. Bit of interest in the ebay/fake stuff but apart from that, **** all happening for sure.

I agree, its a joke and best forgotten. Full of morons these days...

[PeteyD]

Flying Wedgees? Is that DC at the champs?

[Toolish]

I have always felt a loyalty to ISG because Paul really helped my game. That said I also follow TGM, so I guess I am on the dark side on this forum!

That said, the forum over there isn't a match to what it once was, hopefully it comes back. I DO NOT agree at all with them not allowing this article to be posted though.

Mate, I just saw your thread over there on your journey to scratch. Well done and keep it going!

I used to follow TGM when I was a bit more motivated, but these days I'm happy just to get out there and have a hit ... or 17 ... :lol:

re: getting laid off. Here's a little trick that you might want to try. When your hands are about chest height during the backswing, twist your right hand counter clockwise about a quarter of a turn (whilst keeping the right wrist bent). I learned this move from Mike Austin's teachings but it is also described in few other places as well. I think this quarter turn counter clockwise move is also described in TGM, but I could be wrong.

If you want the best instruction in the game listen to Jack.

Buy a 7 wood, drink bourbon and coke, and if ever in trouble in match play, bring out the p0rn to distract your opponent :lol:

After just looking for Champs photos for Courty, it reminded me that one of our resident photographers got full credit for the photo used in this article. Nice work, Tez.
