torgeaux posted:I didn't even put down my umbrella to try. One handed putt to about 6 feet, then one foot past, then scooped and ran. I guess it's no surprise the millions of tiny balls both slow the putt and radically impact the line. This sounds like a scene Caddyshack should have included complete with golf ball sized hailstones.

Dr. Capco posted:Am I an rear end in a top hat if I take a small range bucket and go to a far away hitting area and practice my 10-20 yard pitches then go out and pick them up again to hit full shots? I did the yesterday at one of the munis and the assistant pro stopped a lesson to walk all the way down to where I was hitting and tell me not to hit balls I haven't paid for. I've done this for years and nobody has seemed to care. Kinda ruined my practice session but I didn't want to make a big scene and ruin everyone else's range time. He'll never be the Pro of a major corporation.

Shrapnig posted:How have you been hitting them recently you old fart? Glad to see you survived the 12,000 tornadoes in the last couple weeks. Inconsistent, plus I'll never get back the upper body strength I had, so I can't drive for any non-laughable distance. One week drives are straight, everything else sucks. And every once in a while i'll hit an absurd enough shot to keep coming back like a gambler, heh. Except this is much better, it's fun, I get exercise. A guy with a class of kids let me play through on this par 3 course I like, and those 8 year old snots were so good I asked him how much they charged for lessons.

Suprfli6 posted:Matt Every’s caddie Trey Bilardello apparently shot a 202 and was DQed in a US Am qualifier. Supposedly after the first two holes he began missing shots intentionally. His group started on the tenth hole and was the first group so he held up the entire rest of the tournament. He’s damaged two courses while playing the Minor League Golf Tour and also been arrested for domestic battery. Caddyshack: The Remake.

Daric posted:Yeah I'm obviously a bit biased here in that I've met Patrick a few times and like him personally, but I am aware of how the things he does look to the outside world. I am also aware that Justine running his social media and sending out Cease and Desists is not a good look. But the PGA investigated and both Slugger and Jay Monahan agree that they don't think he was intentionally cheating. So on one side you have a bunch of fans saying he was cheating and asking him to take a harsher punishment and on the other side you have the governing body of the sport going "we believe you, it's a 2-shot penalty". Which party do you think he's going to listen to? He should just embrace the Heel role complete with a little cheat wrestler logo on his golf shirt, sell thousands of them, donate proceeds to charity, and have the last laugh. Tell him to hire me as his P.R. guy next time you talk.

I almost had a hole in 1 yesterday at my par 3 course. Idk, maybe that's cheating. 135 or so yards. My son in law saw it 90 the cup and roll down a few yards. I baptized 5 balls on the next hole, a thing I've never done either. So it evened me right out. Dumb game.

GEMorris posted:Are Stix clubs a reasonable starting point are they just millennial IG marketing garbo? Get some quality used clubs like those below, and frankly anything from 5-12 years old are fine if they're in decent shape and have decent grips. Or you can regrip some if you really think they're winners otherwise. Work your way into what feels right as you go without getting all spendy from the gitgo. That's what's worked for me when I started 3+ years ago. Internet Savant posted:This includes Titleist , Callaway, TaylorMade, Mizuno, Ping, Cleveland (?). Adding Cobra.
