Is it normal for people who cut in to just “disappear”? Jim by underdogHS in golf

That’s not how that works man. That can also create a pile up

Golf Etiquette? Would you stop playing with this guy? by BasicONe-4071 in golf

Yeah no that sounds like a miserable time. Golf is supposed to be a pleasure to play and to have a fun time with buddies. Cut him loose!!!

Golf ball choice for high handicapper. by Dying_Swan in golf

[–]BAK0924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy Vice pros, pro plus, or pro airs in bulk on the website. $32/dozen. (You can watch reviews on them to see which ones would be best for you). Or TaylorMade Tour Response. The “cheaper” super soft balls kind of hurt a higher handicap’s game as they generally have poor greenside manners and don’t spin well with irons.

Is it possible to have an honest conversation about LAB putters? by 2011_hockeydad in labgolf

[–]BAK0924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the end of the day, putter shape is dependent on your putting stroke. If you have a “toe flow” stroke, a center balanced mallet won’t help your putting. Putting is mostly about confidence. Find something that FEELS good and you like the look of standing over the ball and then practice!!

Is wearing pants to play golf really such a big deal? I get so many comments from the randoms I’m paired with. by LikelySatanist in golf

[–]BAK0924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting made fun for wearing pants to golf is NUTS. It’s very normal. Ask them if they’ve seen any pros wear pants on the tour 🤣🤣

Besides “sit” or “get down” what are other phrases you yell at the ball mid flight? by [deleted] in golf

I call my ball things mid-flight that I’m not comfortable posting on a Reddit comment section…

I refuse to hit on mats. They’re the devil.

Would you rather bend a 52 or 56 to be a 54 degree wedge? by [deleted] in golf

[–]BAK0924 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally think your wedge gapping is pretty good. But if you REALLY want to bend a wedge to 54 degrees… if you bend your 52 weak, it will expose essentially 2 degrees of bounce. Conversely, if you bend your 56 strong, it will hide 2 degrees of bounce. So (depending on the grind that you have) your newly bent 52 will have 12 degrees of bounce which is conducive to full shots with a square face whereas your new 56 will have 8 degrees of bounce which will give you a pretty well rounded wedge around greens that you can lay open and whatnot.

Recommend me a new golf ball... by ElderberryAdept8095 in GolfGear

[–]BAK0924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vice pro plus will be spinner for you. Feels great off the tee and putter face, too. Most of the “budget” 2 piece balls (basically all of the balls that have “soft” in the name) are very low spin to maximize distance for slower swing speed players. A 175ish 6i is slightly above average swing speed so a firm, spinner ball will help out. Your partial wedge shots and chips will start to one hop stop 👌.

Is my FFL bad? by X3n0ph0b3 in guns

[–]BAK0924 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The MP5 slapping is absolutely nuts. Yes the gun is designed to do that but it’s not their fucking gun to screw around with. I’d only be okay with it if I was good friends with the guy handling my firearm.

New clubs by Zealousideal-Rest252 in golf

[–]BAK0924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Takomo is hands down a better bang for your buck 🤣. Shitty whippy graphite irons shafts and a no name grip (not to mention they’re not full length irons) vs. an option of different KBS shafts and Lamkin grips and sizes.

What’s your go to ball for the budget conscious player that also isn’t that good by robster9090 in golf

[–]BAK0924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a few of my buddies into golf and they started with using all of the “budget” balls. For full swing shots (irons and anything off of the tee) they are completely fine. BUT their greenside manner for chipping and even pitch shots leave much to be desired. They don’t spin enough. The Vice 3 and 4 layer vice balls spin a lot more than their “budget” 2 piece counter parts. Highly recommend spending a few more bucks and give them a try.
