I have been attending seminars on these rule changes and I think this is the best explanation I have seen or heard. Well done.

Great job. Appreciate the efforts and high quality production. Have to watch a few times to remember all the changes. Wonder if the R&A or USGA have something this easy to understand!:) Like how you hit your leg off of the tree. Nice. Thank you.

Excellent video very clear and precise. Making Golf play quicker is important but simplifying the rules is just as important.

[jeanferret]

A fantastically well thought out video in plain language. Well done sir. The one rule that needed changed and was supposedly not even debated was the ball in a divot rule. Nothing more infuriating than a well struck drive ending up in another player's divot.

[coachvwgolf]

Well done and thank you. I will show this at my first team meeting.

[Tax_Master_DFW]

Maybe my second post on a YouTube video, ever. Really, really well done.

[andrewwhalley]

What an excellent, clear, intelligent presentation. Thank you for making this very useful video.

[methodicl]

I like the changes. It's much more common sense based. Thank you for actually demonstrating these situations. The double hit is a hard one and you were even willing to get wet.

[johnnypenso]

Sounds like the rules are moving more towards the kind of rules we play in weekend golf. Good stuff.

[Kazyman]

A VERY helpful vid. Props, Dude. Very well done.
