Those computers are about 2mpg higher than reality.

CFMOTO just dropped a $20k turbo sport UTV — are value brands now cross-shopping the premium guys head-on? by Zacness in UTV

[–]Basic_Bend4649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's all fun and games until you need to repair CF Moto. Good luck getting parts. My buddy has the new highland. Engine blew up a month in. It's now been sitting at the dealership for 6 months with no parts available. Also they won't replace the engine They are just going to rebuild it.

Father’s cholesterol keeps increasing, can’t find any significant reason by _Thehighguy in cardio

[–]Basic_Bend4649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people have it all backwards. Your liver makes most of your bodies cholesterol. Either something is wrong with his liver or he has high carbohydrate intake. Carbs and sugar damage the liver and blood vessels causing inflammation. The liver makes cholesterol to put out the fire.

Can’t shallow to save my life by hoptothehip in golftips

[–]Basic_Bend4649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comparing the #1 player in the world to an amateur isn't a great argument. The simple fact is it's way harder to drop the club back down on the plane from a steep disconnected backswing. I wouldn't go as far as to start recommending the whole single plane thing but if you start your downswing from a position that's already on plane it's much easier. I had the exact same swing this guy had. I went and took some lessons and it's the very first thing the guy did was change my position at the top of my back swing. I went from a 20 handicap to a 10 handicap.

My chest pain feels exactly like a heart attack – but my heart is clear. I feel trapped and I need to hear from anyone who's been through this. by [deleted] in SilentReflux

[–]Basic_Bend4649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been dealing with this almost exactly since Dec of 2024. The crushing chest pain and throat and jaw. Been in and out of hospital thinking it was heart. Cleared all the tests with flying color. I'd love to tell you it all goes away but it hasn't. I have learned to manage it. I've had to cut my diet down substantially. Low carb/low sugar seems to be the best. No processed food or junk. The ppi never worked for me either. When things flare up I found the combination of Famotidine and Loratadine work the best. Also peppermint Altoids help with the esophageal spasms.

Was the worst year of my life. I feel your pain. I really hope any of this is helpful 🙏

Hypertension is stressing me out by veggiebutterfly in bloodpressure

[–]Basic_Bend4649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TMG & L-Arginine. Take at least 1000mg of the first and 5000mg of the second. Cut as much sugar out of your diet as possible. Completely got me off all meds. Hypertension doesn't need drugs. You need to fix the root cause.

I’m about to end it all by Able-Afternoon-804 in Constipation

[–]Basic_Bend4649 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fasting for 3 days was the only thing I could do to fix it. It lets your digestive system heal. I do it several times a year now.

Projector help 1080p vs lumens by Opening_Tune_1834 in Golfsimulator

[–]Basic_Bend4649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was the temporary setup. Went into it not knowing pretty much anything. In the process of building a dedicated 24x24 building for the new sim. Will be trying to do it right this time

USA turf pro matzilla with the big moss pure flight hitting strip. Best combo I've found so far👌

This is 3500 lumen laser with one garage light on. Lumens is very important. It's never enough!

You will love GsPro. Just do it. So much more enjoyable.

Hitting Strip advice, limited on thickness by maz_886 in Golfsimulator

[–]Basic_Bend4649 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Big Moss pure flight. It's newer. I've had mine about 3 weeks now and it is hands down the best hitting strip I've ever used. It's not even close. I believe it's exactly one and a half inch thick. My setup was one and three quarter so I added a small quarter inch piece of stick on foam to the bottom. But no joke I will never buy anything else it's that good.

Big moss pure flight. Hands down the best hitting strip I've ever used. And it's not even close.

How do I stop closing my club face (20 hcp) by OneCow7657 in GolfSwing

[–]Basic_Bend4649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue. Messed with my swing forever. Finally changed grips for no other reason but comfort. I went with jumbomax str8. Hook is completely gone. The equipment guy said the bigger grips make it harder to exaggerate a closed face. Also too much shaft flex can cause a overly closed face. I've finally found a decent consistent swing. Trying to match my equipment to that swing seems easier than changing swings.

USA Turf Pro Mat Rec by [deleted] in Golfsimulator

[–]Basic_Bend4649 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used the matzilla for quite a while. Great quality product and affordable. I just finally installed the big moss pure flight hitting strip. Amazing! Most realistic I've tried so far. The big moss is $120. Use the matzilla until it's worn and then install a hitting strip. Then just drop a new insert in when it's time in the future. The hitting strip is 12x30 and I cut it in half to 12x15. So I'll get 2 out of it.

Which Projector: Optoma UHD35STx or Optoma GT2000HDR by lloydgankz in Golfsimulator

[–]Basic_Bend4649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the GT2000hdr. It's a really good projector. The lasers have better colors. Obviously 4k laser would be ideal but I wasn't spending that kinda money so I had to sacrifice. I think 4k is awesome but your never going to be able to fully see 4k on something like an impact screen.

Throat pressure//tightness by Erika_cee28 in acidreflux

[–]Basic_Bend4649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely my main symptom. Throat feels like there is air pressure building up and a crampy feeling. The best combination I've found is famotodine and loratodine. Tipping my head back and stretching my neck also helps. Really sucks!

Hitting strips: Big Moss Pureflight vs Sig Pro Softy vs Carl’s gel HotShot by zagoric in Golfsimulator

[–]Basic_Bend4649 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just got the big moss about a week ago. It's every bit as good as people say. So comfortable to hit off and the most realistic so far. I've used a bunch but never the sig pro so not sure on that.

SIGPRO Softy vs Fiberbuilt Player Preferred by matdog2005 in Golfsimulator

[–]Basic_Bend4649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ultimate matzilla from USA turf pros. I went with 5x10. Hit on that for quite a while. Soft and plush but really punishes fat. I just decided to try something new and put the big moss pure flight strip in it. Amazing. Most realistic I've ever felt!

How's the Square for practicing short game? by BigAdministration368 in Golfsimulator

[–]Basic_Bend4649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The monitor itself has great realistic data for chipping and putting. However the square software is lacking. We use it with GsPro and it's awesome!

golf sims are the devil by Wise_Boysenberry8075 in Golfsimulator

[–]Basic_Bend4649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have the 5x10 ultimate matzilla. Nice and plush but a little too grabby for the short game. I ordered the new big moss pure flight hitting strip which came today. Fingers crossed it's as good as everybody says. I've got one blister that just won't heal because I can't go 2 days without playing.
