I am probably the only one watching this and I am not sure how long I will continue but find the concept pretty interesting.
Essentially it is team speed golf somewhere in Jamaica. The terrain is pretty unforgiving and if you have ever tried to play
golf out of breath before it is not easy at all. Essentially they mix the course up to make it particularly challenging. You
tee off on one hole only to take your next shot onto a completely different hole usually over trees or water or something.
So far they have been varying the contests and rules so that keeps it interesting. I believe there are only 8 teams so it
should be a really short season. I enjoy the Big Break series more but at least they are trying something new to freshen
up the game.

Don't worry T-bone, I got your back on this. Watched the first episode, I'll give #2 a try as well. Overall, not a very impressive show so far, not even sure if I would call it a golf show.

I'm off the Big Break train, got bored with the format and the lack of personalities. Not too exciting watching good, not great, golfers hit balls at panes of glass and over walls.

Honestly, I'd rather watch the elite of the elite golfers or weekend hackers play as opposed to people who are not quite good enough for the tour.

I am about 60% through the second show. The head to head matchups are more interesting.

I saw it on a commercial and didn't see any reason to want to watch it.

It is pretty hokey. I finished the second episode and you see some pretty poor golf because the people are just too tired and out of breath.
