The Tale Of A TV Golf Spotter - Or How I Came To Love Their F Bombs

Unless you have been on the inside of a TV network's coverage during a PGA Tour or LPGA Tour event and are familiar with their manic methods of bringing golf to your big screen TV, you would have no way of knowing just how crazy things can be behind the scenes. Watching a golf telecast on TV you would never know that people are screaming orders and yelling for camera angles, swearing like sailors on a troop ship, cursing spotters that miss a call and even yelling at each other back in the production trailer.

TV Golf Needs Spotters

While spotters are invisible to most TV people (who will cross the street to avoid one) they play an important role in the smooth operation of a network golf show. If they do their jobs correctly they are never seen or heard unless called upon and never, ever, under penalty of death, do they speak to a player unless the player speaks to them.

Golfer Posts 5 Aces In One Week!

There must be something in the water in Kappa, ILL, if so, Curt Hocker is a thirsty man, how else would you explain the impossible? - he recorded an astounding 5 holes-in-one during the past week. (two of them on the same day!) Friends at the El Paso Golf Club are amazed at his streak and have christened it "erie." I can think of other terms more befitting a 22 year-old amateur whose name is one vowel away from being a Hacker - included would be; astounding, weird, amazing, unbelievable, awesome, etc.

Golfer's Good Fortune Forces Golf Club Into Bankruptcy!

Just kidding! But golfing phenom Curt Hocker is somewhat embarassed at this point as his golf feats (7 holes-in-one this year and counting) are breaking the club's bank, with his hole-in-one insurance the club is footing the customary "drinks for the house" tradition. Read the full AP story here.
