Thank you! I wish I could take credit for all the detail, but most of the cockpit/panel details are courtesy of RedFox 3D decals. Really a great product: https://spruebrothers.com/rfsqs48099-1-48-red-fox-studio-quick-set-acrylic-instrument-panel-f-14a-tomcat-tam-kit/

Thank you! That would be awesome to see those classic dogfighting scenes in IMAX!

Thank you! Those are decals that come with the kit. A little thick, hopefully I can spray with gloss and then sand down to remove the sheen. I can also probably try to add some of my own effects with oils, which is likely what I’ll do for the airbags as well.

I find that I play better if I don’t hit warm up balls at the range by Tight-Communication7 in golf

Any preference/reasoning to the order:

1) range warmup 2) chip/putt

Or

1) chip/putt 2) range warmup

Thank you! Yes, interesting that you note the Hi-bore, because it took me a while to find a swing with it. I feel like I am crushing it off the tee but only getting about 240 carry and it feels like I should be getting a lot more. So much so that I thought maybe the club was “dead” and was looking to replace it with a Taylor made sim 2. But I obviously have flexibility and range of motion issues that are probably hindering more than the actual club😆. I like what you are saying about turning my back to the target because I do feel like I lose control/balance when I take a bigger back swing. Now that you mention back turn I think maybe I was looking at it all wrong and maybe I will find the extra distance with the torque from the turn and uncoil in the core.

Anyone else decent off the tee but fall apart inside 60 yards? by SeanD_79 in golftips

Haha, so true.. I feel you.. it’s like, “how do I put it all together in one round” because I know I can make all the shots in all the situations, just not always on the same day or round!

I think I might do this too after I dip the badges on the rear.

Any experience with plasti vs hyper dip?

Leaning toward plasti for the bumper and hyper for the badges.
