PGA Tour Will Buy PGA of America? Believe it or not is back!

[@Noeau]

I just realized why this is one of the best podcast out there. It’s because the people giving their commentary and opinion are respected, knowledgeable, and insightful based on their many years of first hand experience and actually living what they’re talking about. All these other podcast are basically some Tom, Dick, and Harry that have no credibility on the subject matter but just provides sensationalism to get clicks. I know Mr Abrams won’t belittle anyone else because he’s classy but Kostis and McCord are the best and lucky for us we have a place to tune in to hear what they have to say. Even Coach Kostis lessons are better than most instruction that is out there.

[@oahujuniorgolfassociationc6656]

It really is a pleasure to still have a place to watch/listen these legends.

Thanks so much for your comment and know these are appreciated and the guys love reading them...and thanks for the classy remark!

Great to have Peter & Gary back

it's great to be back!! thanks!!

LIV has introduced a new feature, with which you can follow any player or team. They do have cameras on every hole.

[@rickschroth9869]

Who cares! Can you name the Team names? Now ask the Public. No one know snd know one cares.

[@robertschissler1236]

My wife and I watch all LIV tournaments and so far this year three LIV players have already won British Open qualifying tournaments 😉⛳️😇😊

[@kostismccord]

yes that'll start soon, we're looking forward to seeing how it is...thanks Keith!

[@Crawdad1975]

This is the most interesting golf has been since Lefty and Tiger. Love it

[@kostismccord]

thanks Crawdad!

[@billhenwood4253]

Love the show and the behind the scenes stories. McCord authored the funniest and most memorable comment at The Masters when Roger Maltbie was playing the 18th and was seating profusely slugging up the fairway and Gary said “now representing the smokers and drinkers on the tour is….” Laughed my ass off!

[@kostismccord]

thanks Bill...Gary keeps us rolling for sure!

[@joecook8352]

I always loved hearing Peter’s explanations of the shots and the Konica Minolta bizhub swing vision camera, I actually have RRHot’s music from that

[@kostismccord]

We'll be bringing them back soon!! Thanks Joe!! Big announcement coming up in the next week or so

[@mikekendall5870]

Love your podcast fellows. Miss having you guys in your former roles. Would you consider having a segment occasionally covering some of the most interesting former players on the pga tour. Example Bruce Lietzke, Jim Dent, Orville Moody, and many who may not have been big stars but may have interesting or quirky personalities.

[@kostismccord]

sounds great mIke...we will look into it...thanks!

[@richardcole4776]

Some great stories here that could be used on a sitcom (like The Office), about the behinds the scene stuff for a golf broadcast crew. Peter and Gary could be executive producers and creative consultants.

[@kostismccord]

thank you for your comments Richard...yes they could have both contributed to tv/movies in the past

[@princeprn1]

Another great chat gents. In regards to TV coverage I can't watch any or very few PGAT events because the coverage is basically rubbish. Watching the Pebble Beach event was unwatchable this year at one of my favourite golf tournaments of the year. Love watching LIV Golf because it's fast paced, it has new technology, I know what the heck is going on at all times, it's dramatic with the team event at the same time as the individual. The Hong Kong event just played showcased the changes in the team placings on the last day...every 5 minutes we had different teams leading the event. They are also not afraid to try something new in their infancy & see if it works or not. But then you turn over to the PGAT & it is just bland. No soul.

[@mikecoughlin4128]

It seemed to me that almost every point they made in this podcast about tv coverage issues has been addressed by LIV. I find it much more enjoyable to watch than PGA. When I do watch PGA I am constantly noticing new things that seem to have come from LIV, graphics for the most part.

If the Golf Channel were to go belly up, the big bright spot would be no more Brandel Chamblee. Yeah Ha

[@shanewilliams1216]

The sad thing is that the Golf Channel was Arnold's baby and NBC plus Brandel turned it into a shit show !!!! I only watch the LPGA and that's it as I have not watched the PGA in over 5 years, I have no idea who has won the Masters or any of the other majors either !!!! I think the last master I watched was when Bubba won it with that crazy 90 degree wedge shot out of the wood against Louie Oosthaseun ........LOL Have no idea what year that was !

[@2Thes22]

PIF/LIV should buy The Golf Channel and have it live up to its name. They should also buy or partner with PGA of America and DP World Tour.

[@shanewilliams1216]

@@2Thes22 I totally agree!! I seen where the PGAT is wanting to buy PGA of America the very same entity that Arnold and Jack left over 30-40 years ago ....LOL I SO want the PGA tour to fold and actually get a WORLD WIDE TOUR that has majors all over the planet on some really wonderful new courses with a new WORLD ranking system , the PGA has had a monopoly on golf and have turned golf into a pure shit show now days !!!!!! the PGA has no intentions of GROWING the game , only keeping the monopoly over golf and continue ripping everyone off with their over inflated TV deals and crap !!!!!!!!!!! Still hanging onto Tigers coat tails , hell hes worn out his welcome !!!

[@kostismccord]

appreciate the watch and the comments!

[@pjpredhomme7699]

​@@shanewilliams1216 I have been thinking about it a little lately - and in reality - the PGA tour that we know was really a creation built around AP. Going back to the 60s - he was probably as close to Michael Jordan in terms of star athlete of that time - he basically created the sports agent - Mark McCormack. So the entire thing was really designed around who Arnold was - and what people liked about him. With the TV came money - and that is what lead to the tour breaking away from the PGA of America in '68. That was basically Arnold and Jack saying this is the market for us - and we are going to determine the rules and how it goes. So in 1993 when Norman tried to start his world tour - it was all set to go until he got an invitation to Arnolds office one day @ Bayhill - and Arnold, Jack and basically the policy board had a little come to Jesus meeting with him and that was the end of it. So it stood to reason that after Arnold is no longer around there would be a complete re alignment. The most important thing about it all was greed. - Yeah Jack and Arnold were the headliners but they created a place where there could be honest competition. Mccord made a huge contribution with the 125 exempt tour in 82 that really opened things up and gave opportunities to guys that would not have happened without it. I think in the long run they will look back and see that greed killed it. Liv is not a sustainable model - hopefully they will come to some type of agreement some way and will minimize the damage but I think 15 -20 yrs from now - this split will never really be fixed and professional golf will never be as popular again.

[@supergolfdude]

I couldn't agree with Peter more regarding too many announcers in golf today. It's absolutely ridiculous. I could name at least six people now from NBC and CBS who they can shitcan tomorrow and it would be a HUGE improvement over the garbage they are putting out there now.

[@stevecrist4902]

Love the podcast - always informative and entertaining. About what's wrong with current golf shows, I recall watching an interview with Ben Wright. He said when Frank Chirkinian hired him Ben said he was told by FC if he didnt have anything to add to what is on screen don't say a word. Fast forward to today and the announcers never shut up which is annoying for the viewer. As for mis-speaking on air I heard one announcer years ago say "as he's going to play this shot there's a strong wind coming from his rear". I had tears in my eyes.

[@andrewfedkiw2783]

Love the episodes keep them coming! Peter and Gary are so entertaining, I grew up listening to you guys announce golf and its nice to be able to see you guys together again. The announcers these days are nowhere near as good as you guys were. It's a true testament as to how good you guys are. And also I love the swing tips from Peter Kostis there great lessons I always like to watch to try and get better!

Love your stories. The two of you could follow up on Fererty’s program and do interviews with current ,past, and individuals relevant to golf. I’d love to hear caddie stories and conflicts they had with their players. Also I’d like to understand when a player let’s say is hitting an 8 iron from 160 yards then several holes later he has an 8 iron from 190-200 yards.

[@pjwillsr]

Excellent podcast...great to see what you two faced. What about letting shorts come to the PGA and minimizing the 1 foot putt shots, or beaming back to an already made shot with the commentary that is so obvious that the shot is in the hole, or an incredible shot.

[@michaeljones3990]

thanks Keith, we think so too! But now you can hear us here! More to come

[@Supper-zero]

The tournament at Torry Pines was a joke this year with all the A-class golfers leaving the PGA and going to LIV. Like the Sentry in Hawaii, all these unknowns win because there are no good players left in the PGA, except a few who only want to show up for the big events.

[@raybowles8587]

Gary your "backward drill" was how I first started swinging when I first started playing. I was in high school and at that time there were no internet to learn about golf, only Golf Digest. I found I could hit the ball real consistent like that. Well, it didn't take long before I got rid of that swing. That is funny now I see you doing that as an aid to help get a feel. Struck me really funny.

[@markmaioli4]

Peter you are absolutely right about getting rid of the announcers. For the most part, they don't offer hardly anything more than what you can already see on TV. They cheer for shots, or worse talk to the ball to slow down, get going or whatever. They are obviously prejudiced toward the top players and faun over everything done by Speith, JT, Scheffler, etc. unless they hit poor shots - then they make excuses for the poor play. And lastly, when they're not falling all over one another to get their inane comments on the air they're always looking for the opportunity to make the grandiose call that will be forever immortalized in sports history. I'm talking to you Mr.Pebble Beach!

When I saw the headline I thought it was April 1st! Then I realized everyday in men's professional golf is April 1st..... Don't agree about Netflix Full Swing. I think its excellent and provides insights we have not seen before... We need more of this. It makes players human and we see the struggles players are going through. They could improve if it was more current and frequent so it wasn't looking back at 2023 but at the last few months on the tour....... Great show as always.

How does the PGA tour treat on course volunteers? I recently spent 45 minutes online giving my availability for 5 days of the upcoming Presidents Cup in Montreal.

The Players charged $75 during the years i volunteered. After seeing the Financial Reports for those years show that 10% of the profits were from volunteer payments . I haven’t volunteered since.

[@johnlingnofski]

Your golf coverage comments are spot on. There is so much coverage of the “business of golf” on the Golf Channel lately that I find myself watching documentaries about the iconic courses and players instead. I’d like to see more golf on the Golf Channel and on the event coverage. Less analytics. It’s a sport, not a product. Just show them hitting the shots.

The talent that brought golf alive, for me, on TV was of course the players, but also the greats behind the mic. ie. Kostis, McCord, Venturi, Wright, Lundquist, Nance and of course Chirkinian. I try to watch today's telecasts and I lose interest within minutes. Appreciate your awesome work.

[@kostismccord]

thanks for your kind words...much appreciated!

[@pjpredhomme7699]

Absolutely in fairness your probably never going to get that back again - I would have to say Chirkanian is waaaaaaaaay underrecognized / appreciated. He had a MAJOR impact on professional golf because most people got to experience that on TV. Kostis and McCord were definitely contributors and were great but the constant was the Ayatollah. The telecasts now are really bad. Nothing against Trevor Immelmann but he is about as compelling as listening to grass grow - not watching - listening. These guys are right - telling the stories are what a golf telecast is about.

I have said this for years. Remember am radio? Not only did you here music, if they had a story, they told it. That's how you found out stuff about the artist or family. And, they always told you the name of the artist, AND, then, the name of the song. Good luck with that. 650 am, Nashville country station. Listen to this in the evening.

The tour now seems to be all about money…not so much chasing history. I saw a very recent interview of Lanny Watkins and the topic of the Ryder Cup came up. He said that he and other past Captains were sitting in a separate room, including greats like Ray Floyd and Lee Trevino. Lanny said NO PLAYER stopped by to say hello and certainly didn’t asked for any advice. Lanny also said he is completely confused of the attitude of the importance of the locker room click. It seemed more like a boys club than a group focused on winning the cup. Different breed I guess.

[@erskine68]

The Players finally felt like a major this year - without voicing about it like in the past. Certainly seems better than PGA Championship that got devalued by being sandwiched in May. Plus, prospects on Europe side not too great… Ryder Cup would be buying that at the top - as well.

Buying the PGA would further enhance the position of PGAT in keeping out the LIV players even more. So now the LIV guys will not be able to play Ryder or PGA Champ ..... So the fans that want to see the best v best can just go shove it, we want some revenge. And we want to hold on to the superior Tour Title and continue to keep the best players in the USA only ......... well, if this happens the current Karma that is engulfing the PGAT will increase 10 fold and will bring about a collapse in viewership from disgruntled fans

[@oahujuniorgolfassociationc6656]

Legends. These 53 min flew bye. As far as some of the topics discussed: The only thing more boring than 2 boring talking heads in the booth is 4! As you said they’re could be 3o balls in the air but we get 4 talking heads. It’s like they are joking. There’s a lot of people who still hate on LIv and I do agree their coverage deserves critique; especially from the likes of you two; but LIv coverage is a big step up. Golf coverage needs to entertain outside of golf shots but at the end of the day people are tuning in for golf shots. LIv Breaks from golf shots are used properly to balance the coverage; which is the opposite of what the networks are doing: a few golf shots to Balance all the other stuff. And I do think the team is being entertaining with a good mix of characters. I hated the walk and talks first. I’m glad to hear you two dislike them. Your old boy Nantz -whom has become more sheltered living at pebble than Bobby- is in love with them. But I will say walk and talks are not as bad with an interviewer walking with the player. And I will add nbc is doing a better job than cbs on the walk and talks.

I like watching LPGA but this week I had enough. I watched with the tournament with the sound off. I had enough of the announcers talking too much, while the players playing the stroke, and starting their comments with “I”. I would’ve done this or I think she feels this way. Plus one of the chatterbox has a high, nasally voice that is very annoying and not subtle for tv. Her initials are MP. As far as PGA, what’s wrong with leaving well enough alone? Why move on from Roget Maltby, Gary Koch, Kostis and McCord when they provide experience, comfort and familiarity. Is Kisner or Knost better than what has worked all these years?

No way PGA Tour buys PGA of America, and LIV needs television money to survive the next two years. Saudi Arabia wants a return on their investments which is these players not the format. Players sell the tournament not the format. The Masters and Open might be the only exceptions.

I’m not watching Full Swing. It’s just a propaganda wing of the PGA Tour.

Peter couldn’t be more wrong about the Joel dahman stuff. Those are the stories I want to hear on shows like that. Hearing Peter talk about all the liv stuff is what is boring. It’s all inside baseball
