I would SO watch a celeb version. There's tons of celeb types out there with 0-5 caps.I vote that they go the way of "The Apprentice" series and bring on celebs and former athletes. Just make it a straight up reality series style with money going towards charities.
I would watch that.
You'd have more interest in something like this than The Apprentice too, they love golf and it's always in a great location.I would SO watch a celeb version. There's tons of celeb types out there with 0-5 caps.
I think there is always an exception to the rule but the show is pretty bad. For me it's about taking he spot of a guy or gal that earned it and can post a good score while the GC throws a person in there that doesn't have the nerves or skill to make a decent run at it. I watched the first season because I had a buddy in it but since then not much at all, maybe 4 or 5 episodes.
I wish they would do away with it and go back to something like pipe dreams.
Pipe Dream instead of The Big Break? Are you Mark Burk? Pipe Dream was about the most scripted "reality show" ever produced. Only other time I saw someone buy a huge RV for under $7,000 was on Breaking Bad.
celebs won't work, as they already had their Big Break, this is for aspiring golfers. They could tweak it, but I like it the way it is.
With the difficulty of actually making the pga or lpga, I think Big Break cast members have done ok.
Getting 50-100k, getting .com,or symetra tour fees paid, and sponsorship, and a exemption isn't getting a big break? Ask Tony Finau if his making the PGA would've been easier, and quicker if he had won. Bet I know what his answer would be.The point is, is this really isn't giving anyone a big break.
Maybe it could use a spin off, and I bet former athletes and celebs would be all over it, viewership would be good too.
I can't really get into the Big Break anymore. I'll try to watch an episode here or there, but they're not really doing anything new from season to season, just the same stuff with different names.
It's funny this thread came up cause I was just thinking of this yester day, some of these guys look like they could play but because they can't pull off some silly trick shot early in the show they get cut. They should have to be eliminated thru 18 holes not 2 holes at the end, anyone could have 2 lucky holes, it shows a better player to go 18 against someone.To me it's like American idol. The people voted off early do better than the winner. Tony F. Is one hell of player and didn't win, right?
Isn't pga golf (or all golf) doing the best with what you got at a particular moment? Pretty sure a few people have lost tournaments not being able to flop when demanded. And lots of tournaments with people tied with 3 holes to go? Sure it's gimicky, as its a reality show, but the gimicks all are a shots they'll have to pull off during a pga career. Including the break glass, and flop wall (obviously without the glass or the wall)I cant watch Big Break. There are only so many gimmicky challenges I can tolerate. When peoples fates come down to flopping over a wall and a 3-hole match play it's more luck then skill.
