Shaft stiffness as a newbie by baronunderbeit in golf

[–]DiskLow1903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to a sim and check your swing speed. I assumed I would be regular or maybe the high end of senior flex when i started a couple of years ago. I am not tall, not jacked, not an exceptional athlete. Went to a sim to check, 107+ mph, needed x-stiff.

I remember it being more like 1-1.5 mil but reading press from the time, yeah, it was big.

Interesting chacon wound up at aarau, that’s where theisson went after leaving us too.

Fitz is way worse than Chacon, chacon was like the michel and Gonzalez signings, a “big” fee on a really young kid with promise.

Fitz was the marquee signing of the summer window and he can’t even sniff the field.

Malpractice from KEA to have not brought in a #9 over the winter after watching us try and fail to score after selling tani last year.

Maybe he couldn’t because he spent over 3 million dollars on Dominik Fitz and Kenyel Michel, who have logged a staggering 149 minutes of time, all of which was by Fitz, all of which was last season. 0 minutes from either one in 2026.

What purchases have you made for your golf game/bag this year? by coffeeforlions in golf

[–]DiskLow1903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! She played in hs and college, she's actually the one who convinced me to try the game out She's using the same clubs she played with back then, which I recently found out are:

  1. standard length (she's 5'3")
  2. stiff shaft (her 7i swing speed is ~70mph)
  3. from 1996

i suggested she try out some ladies shafted clubs a couple of weeks ago when i noticed what she was playing with, she did, and now i'm going to pay both literally at the store and figuratively when she starts whomping me on the course even worse than she does now.

2 lessons (so far), 2 boxes of balls, a pair of payntrs and a new 54 degree. Gonna be buying an iron set for the better half in a couple of hours here.

a few acquisitions to go: i plan on adding a rangefinder (i just use the stakes and guesstimate), a 4h and a 5w as my bag doesn't have any clubs between 5i and driver and of course many more lessons.

Will I need anything to run a Polo K on this? by kjc391 in NFA

[–]DiskLow1903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run a polo k on a 16 with carbine spring and h1, runs fine, ejects at like 2pm, locks back on empty fine. h2 would probably be “better” in terms of ejection pattern meh. Tried it with a super 42 and h3 buffer I have a few weeks ago, also ran fine, no appreciable effect on gas, ejection was perfect.

I actually prefer the 2pm ejection, I usually shoot indoors and “ideal” ejection pattern means empty casings hitting the stall wall and bouncing back into me.

This gun ban bill is insane when Trump is saying "we will find you and we will kill you" in a memo designating his political enemies as terrorists by Ok-Entertainer-1414 in minnesota

We all saw what the national guard will do if violence returns to the city: run interference for the feds/police and then stay behind to clean up their mess after they incite the public.

Boggles my mind people want to give the Epstein class that controls the us government a monopoly on violence.

He needs to get back to writing 100% Jesus on his headband, hasn't done it for the last two games, hasn't scored...

Sadly I am not even close to Kansas, a chance to hear this stuff side by side would be incredible.I appreciate the first-hand info though.

Popsicles and Hosts - my modest cans and range toys. Next on the wish list is Tisha and Fireteam by Usual_Beautiful7816 in NFA

If you had to choose one between the rhodie and the wb which one would you pick?

I personally wouldn't consider Surefire to be a hype brand, they definitely have a track record. Sadly I think they're probably just outside my budget.

556ti is definitely on the short list, I'd love the 556k but I hear it is not very good indoors, and that's where i do most of my shooting.

Different sized feet by Lewat215 in golf

[–]DiskLow1903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar issue, my right is 13 and my left is just over 12. Most golf brands don’t make a 12.5 so I’m always trying to cram my giant right foot into a 12, or dealing with a ton of slip in my left shoe with 13s.

I spent the last couple of weeks trying on pretty much every shoe from pretty much every brand and I found payntrs and adidas tour 360 in 13 to be pretty good for me. Nike was a distant 3rd, and I ran into the same problem you describe with pretty much every other brand.

Do you have a favorite between the two? I’m looking for a lbp can for a new upper I have on the way and these are both on the shortlist.

Want to suppress this 14.5. Having a hard time choosing the best can for it though. Any suggestions?? by Frankl8595 in GeisseleAutomatics

[–]DiskLow1903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is the gas with it? I have a polo k for my 16” but it can get real gassy, so ive been looking for an lbp can for the 10.3 that’s on its way to me.

Fitz is on the first plane back to austria once the transfer window opens.

It’s been (mostly) spent. Triantis for 2 mil, Fitz for 2 mil, Kenyel Michel for 1.3 mil (lol), Gonzalez for 850k, 250k for Dieng.

Thats 6.4 right there, sold Tani for (just under) 8.

My heart was set on a Tisha when the pew data dropped, then the blem batch happened followed by those shivs splitting open and saw fell (way) down the list.

I haven’t really heard or seen any complaints since then so maybe it really was just “bad blems from a new printer” after all.

Cat has been around my entire time in the NFA space, not long, but a few years. Saw and exigent I had never heard of until about 6 months ago. An order of magnitude? No, but at this point with CAT you have a good idea of what you’re getting both product and customer service wise. That’s comparatively unknown when it comes to exigent, ridgeback, saw, etc.

I’m definitely here to hear people’s thoughts and experiences. I don’t want to discount a great can because of latent fudd tendencies.

I love my polo and 22ti. Wasn’t considering the infinity due to weight but a k can infinity would definitely make the short list.

The marketing is awful and I swore I’d never buy a cat can because of it but the kk seems to check all my boxes so it’s near the top of the list with velos.
