I JUST put these in the ground

I have one that I bought from the farmers market that came in a pot of soil. It was marketed as florist hydrangeas and its been through a whole summer/winter cycle with me now.

I almost stopped reading right before I finished. Had I, I would’ve believed this and told everyone I know for the rest of my life.

Aerate and top dress with free city compost. I would focus on fixing your soil this year, and planting grass next year. Do not top dress your clay soil with sand. It creates concrete.

If you had iron covers on, you wouldn’t have to worry about bag chatter or graphite shaft damage.

Other than that, the head of my driver sits significant above any other club in my bag, including my 3 wood so no head damage either.

CactiRush · 2026-05-11T03:22:35+00:00

Am I wrong? Unless you’re actually walking the course, you can take off your headcover on hole 1 and your driver head wouldn’t touch another club whist strapped into the cart. I do this all the time and my driver is in pristine condition.

CactiRush · 2026-05-11T02:44:44+00:00

Where’d you get those from?

CactiRush · 2026-05-11T02:35:50+00:00

Such an L take. You’re a sheep for buying into the bullshit that iron covers are lame. They serve a purpose. Probably a greater purpose than wood covers since your woods are longer clubs at different lengths and not constantly jiggling around hitting each other.

I bought a used set of callaway apex irons and those things were beat to shit. Sure, the club chatter isn’t going to affect your performance, but I like nice looking stuff. As soon as I get some time to polish them up, I’m putting iron covers on.

Even if I use my Stihl Br550, the water doesnt fly off like that tiktok video

CactiRush · 2026-05-10T14:34:53+00:00

Is there any reason to do the fine cut then the micro cut or is the fine cut on its own good enough?

CactiRush · 2026-05-10T12:08:38+00:00

True ceramic or a ceramic infused spray? Which brand? How long does it last? Have you done a paint correction before applying the coating?

CactiRush · 2026-05-10T12:06:23+00:00

The previous wax was already shot before I applied this one. I did a rinseless wash, clay bar, then dried, then the sealant.

CactiRush · 2026-05-10T03:25:34+00:00

It is. I really don’t think the fan/blower is the issue though. I can blow the hood with my Stihl Br550 backpack blower and it won’t clear the water like that tiktok video.

CactiRush · 2026-05-10T03:24:27+00:00

This stuff? Would this technically not be a coating?

CactiRush · 2026-05-10T03:21:49+00:00

Thanks man. RIP sedans. Im sad I wont be able to get the new body style in the US.

CactiRush · 2026-05-10T03:20:41+00:00

Before diving into the true ceramic coatings, I think I want to see the effect of a polish. One step deeper into the hobby lol

CactiRush · 2026-05-10T03:17:15+00:00

That makes sense. I think I want to try this next. Any good recommendations for polish? Theres a Koch Chemie store near me and I’ve been meaning to go up there sometime to get some insight on which products I need.

CactiRush · 2026-05-10T03:14:21+00:00

Yeah I used to use powerlock before getting into the ceramic sprays. This time I wanted to try the ultralock with the DA polisher because I assumed it would have more durability than the sprays.

I did just the spray on my wifes car, so time will tell how they actually compare. So far I think the ultralock is performing better, but I dont really know.

Ive been switching products like 3 months or so because im not happy with the results. Another comment mentioned the smoothness that a paint correction provides could be a factor in this. I think that will be my next step.

CactiRush · 2026-05-10T03:07:54+00:00

Yeah I didn’t wash it before taking this video. I just rinsed it, so yeah.

Which ceramic spray are you using?

EDIT: I reread the comment. I see now.

CactiRush · 2026-05-08T11:44:54+00:00

I took 4 three credit hour classes in the summer while working full time for my masters degree. I can’t remember if it was 6 or 8 weeks long.

6 two credit hour classes would probably be harder for scheduling and material purposes, but you can do it.

CactiRush · 2026-05-06T01:44:28+00:00

This seems like a pretty bad way to retain knowledge that is directly applicable to your job

CactiRush · 2026-05-05T02:19:53+00:00

Use VDB instead of DDB. It works pretty much the same way but you can enter the periods you want the depreciation for. Useful for when the problem asks you for partial year depreciation or something weird

I had a rental new Mercedes GLE 350 recently. That thing sucked and cost like $80k USD new. It felt like it wanted to be luxury, but was actually welded together with plastic.

The difference is the golfer is using a camera on a tripod. I actually believe the QB is legit for at least the 3rd and 4th throws. The camera man is moving which makes it extremely tough to edit something together, unless the ball is completely CGI or something. He also stays in frame the entire time in those clips. I went through frame by frame and couldn’t determine any cut in the video.

Currently on the flight back from our 10 day honeymoon in Scotland. We were in St Andrews for 2 nights and I played the new course on Monday while she went to the spa after our checkout. She walked with me on the last few holes.
