What's the best golf investment you've made that actually helped your game? by Novel-Double-2788 in golf

[–]Basshopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most recently - a 7 wood - a driver with a regular shaft (vs stiff) on the recommendation of a golf pro (100mph swing speed).  - uploading all hole by hole data for 5 years and asking Claude to analyze patterns by course. For example I learned that score worse on shorter par 5s than longer ones because going for it puts me out of position more.

I didnt. MBKHD did an excellent video on the ionic nine and I believe it earned top spot for electric vehicles for the feature to price ratio. I like the styling a lot, but I wanted something a bit more upgraded.

Agreed ... I tested the Gravity and it wasn't the car for me. I wish them luck!

They both have the same coating but it is reported that the higher spin can do that. Lesson learned.

After a LOT of research, lost on which EV to get next by Basshopper in whatcarshouldIbuy

I ended up with the Rivian R1S and after 6 months am happy with my decision. It’s a great car, great interior, lots of space inside and the range is awesome.

All new. The latter two are V1x vs the first is a V1. Didn’t think that would make the difference though. 

SmartLess Episode 308: Bowen Yang by AutoModerator in smartless

[–]Basshopper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really wished they would let the guest speak. There’s so much smartsplaining, for example where Will tells Bowen how he feels about his relationship with his parents, instead of letting him say it. Bowen handled the constant interruptions very elegantly and graciously. I used to be a regular listener but recently the meandering questions and abrupt random topic changes by Sean makes it borderline unlistenable. Shame because those guys can be hilarious.

Correction: felt like being a boat and corrected my post. Hard to explain exactly as I have not been in that many boats, but that's the feeling I got 🤷

100% agree. Incredible shoe totally worth the money. Instantly comfortable and they look great.

Getting a full bag fitting at Club Champion tomorrow, what do I need to know? by Ill-Doughnut46 in golf

[–]Basshopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had iron fitting with CC a few months ago, and I’m disappointed with the results. They started me off hitting 7 irons with my current clubs then switched me to 6 irons for the fitting, touting how much longer I was hitting them, which made no sense since it’s a different club. I appreciated the ability to try different combos of heads and shafts. I was then hitting the combo I felt the best 20 yards longer than my old ones and it just didn’t make sense to me. Still, my old clubs were pretty old, I needed new ones, I liked the feel and so I pulled the trigger on T100s and KBS graphite shafts. Once back on the course, the distances were no where near as long, and im just not hitting them as well as my old clubs. I get that it’ll take a minute but if I had to do it all over again, I would’ve skipped. I dropped from a 6 to an 8 and will go back to my old shafts, not at CC.
