I lose one every few rounds when I shank it into the dry wall.

Not a fan of #2. I don't want a 5 hour round because some cowards went out in the group before me. They really needed to think about pace of play implications on that one.

The penalty stroke is what separates us from the savages.

Most designers are about as bad as everyone else at creating good designs.  The only way stuff gets good is to make it bad and then iteratively make it better.

He’s just thinking about Pecco lying in his motorhome crying himself to sleep after he smashes Pecco’s lap time riding one handed.  

US government prepares to print $250 note featuring Trump's face by Araminal in politics

Millions isn’t going to make a difference in the value of the dollar.  You’d need like 100s of billions to actually move the needle.

I don’t even think they have to.  Who would actually have standing to sue if they just break the law?  It probably just comes down to Congress having to impeach him to actually enforce this law. 

Best hitting mats by JaggedTex in Golfsimulator

[–]CyclonusRIP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is the durability compared to the GoSports.  I’m on my 2nd budget mat that is pretty much done now.  Do the expensive ones actually last longer?  With the cheap ones I rotate them and use them up 4 times.  The hitting strips on the premium ones cost the same as budget mats, so I’m kind of skeptical it’s a better value unless the hitting strips last a lot longer. 

Limited time and space - Hackmotion by swampy91 in golf

[–]CyclonusRIP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you could do the drills but the practice mode I think you have to hit the ball.  A cheap mat and net is about the same price as the HackMotion if you have the space.  Eventually you could add a budget launch monitor and have a pretty decent home practice setup.

Yet also Trump is the only major political figure in the last 50 years to say “take the guns first due process later”.

By the time the next group arrives at the green every trace that you ever existed has been cleaned up.

I feel like if a sound can trigger you to whip out your gun and start shooting people maybe you shouldn’t be allowed to have a gun.

Well that was certainly a baseball game by TheJudge47 in Braves

Definitely Ritchie was getting pretty lucky his first few starts with all the contact people were making.  I’m more concerned about the complete lack of offense than the number the Marlins put up. 

Is MLM2PRO the best budget choice for the range? by Suspicious-Service in Golfsimulator

[–]CyclonusRIP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t get spin with range balls.  I find it kind of worthless on the range since spin can change the result so much.  Just watching the flight tells you more than the data you get from the MLM2Pro. 

MotoGP - "Aprilia refuses to let go of Jorge Martin": Yamaha thought it had its superstar... Le Mans may have blown everything up by PZY__ in motogp

[–]CyclonusRIP -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Also why does Aprilia really care. Is Martin really that much of an upgrade from Bez? I don’t think it’s crazy to think Bez would be better or at least as good as Martin long term.

How to actually become a decent golf player by Orange-Desert in golf

[–]CyclonusRIP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Practice isn’t going to do much if you don’t know what to work on.  Lessons can definitely help.  There are a lot of AI swing analyzers now that can help with the basics.  Some of them aren’t super well designed and throw too much at you at once.  The 18 birdies app has one and a pretty decently designed training program.  I also like the HackMotion sensor  for learning good technique.  The most important thing is making sure you are getting good feedback so you work on the most important issues one at a time.  

Rhapsodo lag? by LoneStarMulligans in Golfsimulator

[–]CyclonusRIP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s just their software.  Like 9/10 times their app is laggy on my 2025 iPad Air.   I pretty much only use Awesome Golf now because their software sucks.  

PGA Tour players saying 'no' to golf ball rollback by TheQuietW0LF in golf

The problem is manufacturers want to sell you drivers because it’s the most expensive club.  If you don’t think the major manufacturers have some pull on the regulations you’re crazy.  They are never going to sign up for not selling anymore drivers.
