If golfing is just a hobby what is golf. What athletics skill does it take to catch a fish. They may not be a golf center but there is a Golf CHANNEL. thats a television station for just golf, not an hour every saturday morning.

might be one channel for golf, but how many DIFFERENT outdoor channels are there?
as far as skill. talk about hand eye coordination---ever tried tying your own fly? casting, jigging, hooking landing a fish? maybe try paddlefish snagging. hooking, dragging and gaffing a 100# fish.

so you must lift weights for it to be a sport? alot of tennis players benching 315 arent' there. athletics requires a certain skill. trapshooting. hand eye coordination=skillbaseball wrote:point/center wrote:baseball wrote:point/center wrote:

if i could find TV ratings I would show you more people watch the smallest golf tournament on tv over the bass master classic or whatever. Who wants to sit and watch a person in a little paddleboat watch a bobber go up and down waiting for the "monster" to come. What athletic ability does it take? I bet these "athletes" spend thir whole day either on the lake or in the weight room pumpin up for the next "season" huh?
you said it not me....hoping a fish bites is like carrying out clubs and saying your a golfer. putting the ball in the hole is like getting the fish on the hookbaseball wrote:I still just dont see how you can feel fishing is more of a sport than golf. Not anyone can go and stick a 6 iron from 190 yards out 3 feet from the pin. But on the other hand, anyone can go throw a hook in water and hope a fish bites it.
