Wanted to respond to the recent selections....and up front...I wanted all to know that I enjoyed the submission process and really enjoyed the work that I put into my entry.

It was a tremendous idea for the Golf Channel to have this contest which inspired many to take the time to enter a submission....and to promote activity on their website. Hat's off to the Golf Channel for the promotion....and it was a success I am sure for the GC. The mere fact that I am making a post is eveidence of the success of their promotion.

However...it was a bit misleading and that is a fact. 4 were to be selected and it was advertised that way...only 3 were selected from amoung the 100's that were submitted. And I thought it was to be 4 new instructors...new faces....etc. Nope...that didn't happen either....with so many capable teachers in this country....how could they not find a new face or two????

It is my observation that this was a huge promowith no respect to the implied intent of the contest. It's disappointing....to say the least.

But....the show must go on!

Did you guys have to agree to anything regarding golf channel being able to use the content of your submissions as they wish? If so, that would make these selections extra suspicious, as they not only got a lot of publicity from this, they have also collected a pretty big library of unique and compelling instructional content.
