Articles Section Idea?

Hi guys,

Just wondering if you think it would be a good idea to add an Articles feature to the site. This feature would allow members to write their own articles in a particular section. For example, if you want to write an article on a particular golf drill that you recommend.

Just an idea and wanted some feedback on what you think?

Hi Greg,
This could be a good idea simply because the speed that questions are answered with tips and drills, after several days these are lost, without searching old threads it is difficult to re-trace tips.

On the flip side......there would be no point if having members helping members if you could simply look up tips and drills when you have a problem, i.e no one would talk to each other.

food for thought.

Greg I think this is a great idea.

As Ian said it can sometimes be hard to find specific drills, even with the search function.
I don't think it would stop people talking on the forums, I think it would make them talk more! I'm sure there are plenty of opinions out there, which is a good thing.

Nice idea, I would be willing to write an article or two. Would you be able to upload photos with the article.

How about a section for articles on the previous weeks golf tournament - like a news column.

Or even better a section to write an article on your previous round like a sort of golf diary?

What do you guys think?

Bwood,

Now that is a great idea, everyone could write about there weekends game and things the did that changed the round for the better, course management etc.


can't wait.

I think it would be a great idea to have articles on drills written by members. people could then comment on the drills and give advice to improve drills. A golfing diary would be good as well!

why not have it when you click on someones name and have a personal drills section and a golf diary? And then people could write their own articles on golfing news, tournaments, golf courses in an articles section?

What about a player stats section as well, in someones own profile section along with the diary & drills? Members could fill in their rounds stats such as G.I.R, fairways hit, putts, sand saves, up & downs, & strokes? the figures could then be added up and averaged and give yearly members figures. People could then recommend drills and advice to improve a golfers game looking at what is letting them down!

Just a thought
