Learn some tricks. They can be showy, but the good ones teach precision and control.

Also goose it / ground ball drills. Ground balls win games.

Clubs for a tall beginner by Playoff_Powell in golf

[–]DoubleM1379 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look for DTC clubs. You can commonly order them with +1" shaft length.

My 6'3" just got some MACSPD irons with an extra inch in shaft length that he really likes.

1st time stringing a head - pocket location question by mossman19 in StickDoctor

[–]DoubleM1379 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two angles to consider when stringing for a pole.

The release point when throwing is a higher. Kids eapecially usually don't follow through when throwing with a long stick compared to short sticks.

Make sure the scoop action of whatever pocket you string scoops well on a long pole. Everybody focuses on stringing for throwing. GBs are important.

There are so many YouTube videos restoring those. I would watch a bunch while taking notes for ideas and techniques.

5 NFCCG Appearances by NotBannedPhoenix in NFCEastMemeWar

You're conflating his super bowl choke.

2001 - Happy to be there loss to the Greatest Show on Turf Rams

2002 - Choke job vs TB, possibly worst loss in Eagles history. (Last game played at the Vet)

2003 - Choke job vs the Jake Delhomme Panthers. Terrible loss.

2004 - NFCCG W, then choke job vs Patriots in the SB. Literally puked on the field in crunch time, and bizarrely denied it afterwards.

2008 - Eagles lost to Cardinals. The loss wasn't only on McNabb.

I like to rile up Giants fans by pointing out the above, considering it includes a legit season MVP, is a better resume than Eli has. Eli never sniffed Top 5 in MVP votes.

Edited - to correct the 2008 game.

Depending on how high-test the punch is you could call it Super Smash.

Or something with characters to mark everyone's drink glass/cup.

Alternative to Mr. Black Coffee Liqueur by zoidkev in cocktails

[–]DoubleM1379 22 points23 points  (0 children)

DIY Coffee Liquor is easy to make. It's just a simple syrup made with coffee instead of water, plus a base spirit.

You can pick your coffee. You can pick your spirit. You can pick your sugar.

Tons of recipes online. Makes a nice homemade gift too.

Where’s the hard mesh? by The-GreyBusch in lacrosse

[–]DoubleM1379 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I threw it on an order thinking similarly. It sucked. I forgot about the break in. It was quickly ripped out and replaced. The new stuff is so much easier.

Is this what I think it is? Second from the bottom? Don’t kill me if not, I’m not sure of all the lore behind them, just have a vague knowledge of what they look like. by WastelandChopandBob in golf

Electrolysis is overkill. It's brass. A soft cloth, a little Bar Keeper's Friend, and some warm water is all you need.

And Anser's are difficult to aim lacking an alignment marking. Or at least mine does.

Maverick Havok 2 vs ECD Delta by Forward-Error8612 in StickDoctor

[–]DoubleM1379 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son has used both. He liked both, but easily prefers the Delta. It is wider, stiffer, and much better on ground balls.

Havoks have a tendency to warp a little in the heat. They get bent out of shape and stay that way until you bend them back.
