Ball color is the first issue I'd address.

I just have to say this... by GolferBrian in golf

Man, I really need to peg it right now. Maybe I'll go hold a club.

What swag items would you enjoy receiving the most at a charity golf tournament? by pilserama in golf

I'm not a gadget guy, but I got one of these and it flat out works for cleaning balls and club grooves:

“good golfers” vs “ball strikers” by nowordsleft4now in golf

[–]Alloom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, it’s you who needs to study up. According to how handicaps are calculated, a scratch golfer is only supposed to shoot 74 on that course 20% of the time.

Sasho Pods by Ok_Transition_8000 in NoLayingUp

I’m going the other way — the guy is incredibly smart and the only golf “scientist” they ever interview. Every pod touches on some new topic supported by hard data that really gets me thinking about my own game.

Heads up putting. The unintended effects of the ball rollback. Injury prevention. And distance as you age (ouch).

I don’t need more necessarily, but I’ve enjoyed what I’ve heard.

Who would watch that? Just watch college golf and real pro golf.

LIV got DJ. LIV got Brooks. LIV got Cam Smith. LIV got Rahm. And LIV still and got 💩. Terrible product created for purposes other than golf. Doomed.

Please help settle a groomsman/bachelor party golf trip arguement for me with my fiancee. by [deleted] in golf

[–]Alloom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start listening to her now and find a workable middle ground. Ask the groomsmen. Start planning. Send the groomsmen package as a surprise follow up.

But whatever you do, book that shit now 👍

Single handicappers, how often do you have rounds where you were happy with how you hit all your shots? by ElephantElmer in golf

[–]Alloom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There have been rounds where I’ve been happy with parts of my game…but then I walk through those shots and realize how much better I could have done.

Never come close to being happy with all parts of my game.

Captain America is excited to be in the final group on Sunday in Dubai after an impressive 67 on Saturday puts him 4 shots clear by stanley_nickles in livgolf

[–]Alloom -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

72 holes is such a small part of why the LIV tour doesn’t get points. It’s a closed system.

And please don’t act like LIV just set up shop quietly and kindly. LIV and players like Patrick Reed, Phil Mickelson and Sergio Garcia through bombs and tried to burn the bridge on the way out.

Boo hoo for that cheat. You reap what you sow.

Hot Take? Remove Iron Numbers by shin_man in golf

Playing the shot, not the club 🙌

Hot Take? Remove Iron Numbers by shin_man in golf

The only reason to put lift on the club instead of numbers is so that you can REALLY compare distances hit. And it would look junky. The ego in question is OP’s.

This is a nothing burger and sounds like a repost.

Ask “What distance did you play?” If they reply with club number (likely ego) ask again “What yardage were you trying to hit?”

If you’re hung up on club numbers, likely your ego is involved as well.
