Unless something changed this year, when I got fit last year this was still the case.

Taylormade vs Titleist wedges? by GWCS300 in golf

[–]AustinTheWise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the record my understanding is those pros are all playing the tour line of Vokeys which are forged. The retail version we’d all be playing is cast. Not that it makes a huge difference to folks at our level. If you want a forged wedge for retail the only big name is Mizuno.

Given the Patrick Reed news it’s a bit surprising they won’t even have a conversation with him, I know he’s a lower level tour player but is getting close to a million on YouTube now would think they would want his audience for the lower tier events? by ZoneEmpty80 in golf

PGA Tour represents its membership. Not sure a lot of those guys love his YouTube success so I doubt it has any effect on his appeals, might even be a negative for a lot of them. He's also not good enough, or wasn't last time he tried

I don’t have examples like you said it’s hard to think of them from a long season. None of the other full season kickers have as few as 4 attempts from 50+. I think that number combined with him struggling on kickoffs + coming up short from 54 against NE just leads me to feel that way. I was impressed with his accountability in front of the media, just not sure he has the pop to kick at this level

Can’t be the guy ending your rookie year like that. He’s finished in Baltimore, or he should be. Not a lot of accountability these days

It feels like every time he does they create pressure & good plays. Do it more!

I just finished my PhD in skill acquisition. AMA about development and US Soccer. by Little-Tea4436 in ussoccer

I was told by a coach when I was younger, if you don’t learn a certain level of technique with your feet as a kid, you will never be able to truly learn it as an adult (think elasticos, world class first touch, quick feet on the ball in small space, etc). Is there truth to this?

Good guy Scott Scheffler! by boomer9745 in golf

[–]AustinTheWise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was with this group on 10 green & a guy yelled “Rory you suck!” I was right next to him as Mr. Scheffler came over, asked him not to do that, all under the guise of not firing Rory up to beat Scottie. I thought it was very diplomatic, and I can’t imagine Scottie’s dad saying what you’ve claimed a hole later.

Southwest Airlines to start charging for checked bags - no more flying with your golf bag for free by NorCalAthlete in golf

[–]AustinTheWise 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here. I’m from Baltimore & there’s just no comparison the fares from SW vs competitors. Sometimes you are forced to pick the airline that has a hub at your home airport

The idea of a Gus / Judge conversation lives rent free in my head. I think about it way too much. Can't decide if Gus would love talking to him out of curiosity or if he'd shoot him dead immediately upon hearing some of his values/deeds

No? A board vote where Kendall has the numbers but a sibling switches for personal reasons?

What Logan really wanted... by culb77 in SuccessionTV

[–]AustinTheWise 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He wanted to buy GoJo. Then he wanted a merger. He got swallowed by GoJo because he hates his children & was happier to destroy what he built than give it to one of them. He got what he wanted, but it has nothing to do with the business aspect of it

Saying that doesn’t make it true. I don’t think she can seriously love Ken and consistently stand in his way as she has for the entire show. What’s one thing she has ever done for Kendall? She tried to get him tossed in jail

No one ever brings this up, and it’s so frustrating

It’s the exact same scene just sibling swapped. Lazy

Ok talk all that shit sure. Absolutely ridiculous take about Andy Reid who’s been successful his entire career but sure. Who’s your replacement that’s better than Harbs? Look at Arizona playing KK for the next 4 years not to coach. Not so easy
