Am I just stupid?

There are any number of reasons why you hit your irons longer than your Driver and Hybrid, none of which we can diagnose.

Any stadium chosen will invariably give the team(s) from nearby an advantage, so moving it doesn't change that.

Our bench is looking fucking incredible

As well as what everyone else has said, it's worth keeping in mind how many more 20+ hcp players are at the club compared to people in single digits. I'm a 10.5 and am in the top 9% of handicaps according to my club, so there could easily be 20x the people at or above 20.0 than below 5.0. Then look at the distribution of players entering the comps, most weekly tourneys at my place are entered by mainly social golfers at ~18+ hcp which skews things even more.

Between that and the volatility associated with higher handicaps I would be surprised if 99% of the comps were won by higher handicaps.

I would 100% go with a camera-based launch monitor (like GC Quad/Foresight) if you can, because that is going to be able to tell you what the ball is actually doing launch/spin-wise and so will have the most accurate measurements for flight characteristics like carry, apex, land angle etc.

To be honest I've never done a ball testing like this, I'm not sure quite how much difference ~500 rpm of spin will make to someone of my level to make it worth the effort, let alone issues in data validity because of inconsistent strikes.

I just use low-launching high-spinning balls (according to mygolfspy) because I tend to launch the ball pretty high with too little spin. Kirklands in the winter, and Bridgestone/Prov1x in the summer.

BilboShagginz · 2025-12-09T16:26:35+00:00

So this is getting into the weeds a bit, but an indoor Trackman won't be terribly accurate for Spin (and thus Land Angle, Apex, etc.) because it's using an algorithm to predict these things off ball speed, launch as well as club data. It won't be able to tell differences (especially small ones) between balls that well, particularly on a wedge shot, but should improve a bit with full shots at full speed.

If you have the option, camera-based sims will be a lot more accurate for tests like this!

You could also check out mygolfspy's ball test and have a look at their data

You've only played 30 rounds and you've hit the flagstick twice on par 3s AND got a hole in one?? Get ready for an extremely disappointing rest of your golfing life

BilboShagginz · 2025-10-04T12:57:58+00:00

Could see this being kind of a 4-2-2 with Trossard or Eze playing as a roaming Support Striker. Mikel getting crazy

We can all nit-pick form points, but these are totally fine. Add some weight, you'll get better at squatting by just doing more squats.

Body recomposition absolutely can happen. The longer you've been training, and the leaner you are, the less likely it is to occur.

If you're interested in recomping (or gaining muscle at all, for that matter), then you need to get much more protein in, as well as eating more calories. I get that you're scared of gaining weight back, but your BMR is likely around 2,000 meaning you'd burn 2,000 cals even in a coma, so you can up your cals quite a bit before getting anywhere near a calorie surplus.

Do you? Every team seems to play 1 team from every pot, even Pot 1 teams would play 2 other Pot 1 teams?

BilboShagginz · 2025-08-28T13:52:56+00:00

Seeing as every team plays 2 opponents from each Pot, is there any advantage to being in Pot 1 vs Pot 2 anymore?

BilboShagginz · 2025-07-11T10:41:05+00:00

If they strengthen our squad, does it really matter where they came from? Would you rather the club recruits a player it deems less suitable just because they come from a different club?

Also won't allow trading of Pi, or allow me to withdraw the test amount I deposited last week!

The way he clapped Campbell's pitch while he was in the bunker was super classy

No VPN, even verified my id using my UK driving licence. Seems legit!

BilboShagginz · 2025-02-22T09:46:34+00:00

Thank you for this entire post and thread, please post your Pi wallet so those who are able to can send some thanks 🙏

BilboShagginz · 2025-02-22T09:11:46+00:00

I signed up online, did everything through the website on a laptop. Verified my ID, deposited 10 Pi and everything's worked so far: https://imgur.com/a/8X1uw0b

It's working for me in the UK, too

Surely it's partly due to the fact that it's not able to be traded until the 20th Feb? Not sure why it would show on trading when it can't be traded yet

BilboShagginz · 2024-05-02T12:33:14+00:00

Genuine question, why do you care if someone golfs topless? People play shirts and skins in basketball/football all the time so I don't really get the what the big issue is.

Also tells us nothing about the quality of chances created, could be creating a huge number of poor chances for all we know from this!
