and yet you watch golf
and yet you watch golf
the only one
That's what we're up to this summer. My dad's only got a couple of states left so we're doing a two week road trip all through the national parks. He's the kinda guy that's getting up at 4am to wait patiently until some random animal struts in front of his camera. But man he's got some incredible shots. And he knows the other ten birders that hang out in the parks every summer.We drove took a detour into North Dakota on our way to Glacier when I was in my early 20's just so my pops could say he's been to every state. I just have to check off Hawaii but poor.
could probably say that about a lot of sports at a surface level

Doesn’t south Texas have the most diverse bird population in the country?
I guess that's my point: there is a much great variety of moves in the x-games sports than there are golf swings and to an untrained eye, the former is way more interesting to watch irrespective of knowing how technically good it is
I have been to 49 states. Adding number 50 this year. Recently hit Nebraska and North Dakota as 48 and 49. Nebraska does not seem to have much to offer. Mississippi, Indiana, Delaware, and a few others could be in that same bucket. Or I could be missing out on something.
The worst place I have lived, by far, is Roanoke. Even it has enough for a great long weekend. Wondering how anyone could not plan a great long weekend in Houston, Dallas, Phoenix...
when I watch team sports, I can see so much more of what is going on on TV
when I watch tennis, I can see the whole court
when I watch a 100m dash, I can see all the athletes most of the time and see who is winning
when I watch golf, half the shot is a white ball against a blue background that could be a good or bad shot; similarly, you often can't even tell if a shot is good or bad from the actual swing -- all you get out of it is the result, not the process
it'd be like if you watched basketball zoomed in on one player and the hoop wasn't even in the frame until the ball reached the rim
