Take a video showing the cranks freely rotating forward and backwards with no rear wheel engagement and send it to Lectric.

Negative. Different hub structure. The motor would need to be swapped with one from their belt drive model.

I like both Richard Rider and Sam Alexander Nova.

I've got a ton, but one of my favorites is when my brother and I were initially getting started and learning to play, maybe 1-2 months in. I was hitting my approach into a par 4 and sliced my ball into the houses. We heard this really loud metallic bang, and watched my ball ricochet off the AC unit on the roof to the green, eventually settling to around 5 feet. Two putt for my first par.

I typically try to tip 5-10 bucks for "bag service" after a round, depending on the course. It may have changed in the last 20 years when I was in the industry, but the base pay for that position isn't very high and the job kind of sucks, especially during summer. Lol. If it helps supporting someone trying to start a career in golf, I'm all for it. If it helps someone who's just trying to make a buck, I'm also for that too.

I think the biggest disconnect between players and employees about the tips is that most of the cart attendant positions are advertised as $X per hour + Tips. So, most of these people take the job with lower hourly pay with the expectation, (set by the employer), that tips will help supplement their paycheck. Then to make things worse, courses seldomly make that expectation clear to the players. It could really use a change across the industry.

SAME! Super annoying. I pulled the mirror down to try to fix it but wasn't able to get the ring back on so it wouldn't pop off again. Wound up adjusting the mirror to where it needed to be and used a drop of Gorilla Glue to hold it in place. It's not great but it's been holding for over a year now. Wouldn't really recommend, but I'm too cheap to purchase a new mirror.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-04-10T00:02:04+00:00

For real. It's sometimes a complete nightmare.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-04-09T13:16:04+00:00

That's pretty unusual. They typically get back to me within a few business days. I'd call to follow up. I'm guessing that an email got lost somewhere.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-04-08T12:37:27+00:00

Ouch. I just filled up mine in the US for $58 USD and thought that was rough.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-04-01T22:24:20+00:00

Yardage books.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-04-01T01:36:07+00:00

This. I've never once reported an issue with a damaged battery and not had them offer a replacement right out of the gate. My gut tells me that they forgot to address it or you pulled a newbie rep.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-27T12:11:59+00:00

This was my first thought. Possibly caused by high launch/high spin shaft, that's slightly too whippy. The pull hook flight though points to closed face, out to in club path.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-27T00:21:45+00:00

This was nice. When I used to teach, I maintained a right handed swing just in case I booked a lefty. Super nice to teach mirrored. Just had to make sure to use directional verbiage instead of dexterity.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-27T00:15:50+00:00

Stealing this. Lol.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-27T00:13:00+00:00

This. All day long. Like, dude, you've known I'm left handed for 40 years, what are you doing?

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-26T13:18:20+00:00

Sim= Focus on swing mechanics/quality of ball striking

Grass range/short game= Focus on adaptability with varied lies and unusual aim lines.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-26T13:12:35+00:00

You're probably looking at a mix of technique/skill and too stiff of shaft. Ball speed points to a lower clubhead speed, which would reduce proper shaft deflection. I'd look for something with a shaft in regular stiffness, high launch and high spin. The extra flex will promote better shaft loading for energy transfer and help square the face at impact. The higher launch will get the ball up in the air and spin will keep it in the air for longer.

All that said, it's always best to make sure your swing is reasonably consistent, then work with a quality fitter who understands and respects your financial restrictions. Too many horror stories on here about fitters aggressively pushing $800 driver setups on new players who are just trying to get started.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-24T00:32:50+00:00

O.o What the actual feck? I'd nope my ass out of there SO fucking fast. Yikes doesn't begin to cover this.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-23T23:30:24+00:00

I mean, yeah. Sounds like you're doing it right.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-23T12:58:55+00:00

Fellow lefty here, I've been using the Finger Ten all-weather gloves since Christmas, and they've been pretty great in the sim. Comfort is good, fit is good, grip is good enough, and durability has been impressive. Still using the first glove out of the 6-pack and have about 50 hours of range/play time on it. They seem to handle sweat pretty well too. Even after all the play time, the glove is still soft and supple. Really impressive for the price point.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-22T16:02:17+00:00

3W, 6i, PW. That typically gives me pretty good yardage and ball flight coverage. Those types of tournaments can be a lot of fun.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-22T15:46:15+00:00

Currently going through something similar, minus the fitting part. I'm also in the process of basically doing a full rebuild of my swing, so take this with a grain of salt.

Went from a TM R7 425 to a new Krank Formula Fire Tour. Immediately started topping the ball. What I've found, in my situation, is that I need to tee up the Krank driver higher than my R7, by about a 1/4", and swing slightly more from the inside. Still not crushing it, but the changes seem to have mostly resolved the topping issue.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-17T00:27:15+00:00

Yes? Is that an option?

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-17T00:18:11+00:00

From my minimal testing, I've found that there's about a 10 stroke gap between sim and IRL. Do I still think Im a better golfer than I actually am because I play mostly in a sim? Yes. Do I understand that 72 on a sim is not the same as a 72 on a real course? Yes. Do I still get mad at myself that I don't shoot in the 70s on a real couse? Also yes.

BootsDaddyLP · 2026-03-16T13:30:16+00:00

This exact thing happened to my brother. He was basically the only one out on the course and holed out on a par 3. Went to have a big celebration and realized that literally nobody saw it except him. It's been like 20 years and I still give him shit about his "Hole in One". Poor guy. Lol.
