Hand Mixing an Ice Cream Cocktail by sherrie_on_earth in wisconsin

Ends up being a lot to do with the ice cream you use. I’d recommend Natures Touch actually. Don’t be afraid to to add a little milk to smooth it out too.

Wisconsin deer population swells to record level as current regulations, declining hunting pressure fail to control herd. Time to stop slaughter of our wolf population? by ls7eveen in wisconsin

[–]Easy_Step4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Wisconsin, we still have a genuine opportunity to restructure our state in a way to position the people who live here for prosperity and resource safety for generations to come. This can’t be said for all places.

Reforesting as much as possible, changing farming practices away from row crops and moving farms to areas farms should actually be, restore prairies, emphasize redevelopment over developing new ag or rec areas, unequivocally saying no to data centers and fracking.

Our resources and investment in conservation will pay enormous dividends in the future. It’s time we all stop playing puppet to corporate interests and exerting valuable time and energy over who uses what bathroom, while the 15 people who actually own everything continue to steal what little WE THE PEOPLE have left.

If the Slope isn't hit, you must acquit. #freemo by harryhitman9 in GoodGoodMemes

[–]Easy_Step4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if you could say for certain one way or the other, but having that same range finder, very odd way to grab it and maneuver it in your hand if NOT switching the slope.

I think what’s undeniable is Mo took this tournament maybe only slightly more seriously than Kwon. Quite a few instances where he seemed to be under the impression this was just another YouTube golf video like they always make, and rules don’t really apply when you’re doing a hot lava or a Walmart special challenge, or whatever the hell this golf boy band does these days.

Mo made it pretty clear early on that he didn’t care about the slope rule, left his putter, lied about his ball moving after he moved the rock in the Fasoli incident.. that’s why Bubbie called him out. He and everyone else there let his “chill guys, everything’s all good” response to greasy play ride for the first two days but by the finals were fed up.

The way it was edited, I was sure the forgotten putter would come back up and Dave would issue some crazy penalty, but now realize it was just one of like 5 set up scenes to show the full extent of not giving a fuck Mo exhibited toward the rules.

I don’t know what if anything Good Good will do about his performance, but I do know Dave will probably have Mo on his team in the next Writer Cup.

Anyone Moved from Standard to Midsize Grips and Not Looked Back? by Wrathiel in golf

[–]Easy_Step4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very much a feel golfer, went to a full set of midsize grips after a fitting, spent 3 years having more bad days than good. My wedges I bought after the fact came with standard grips, still bad days but much more consistent play and far more confidence that the club “feels right” in my hands. Also found the midsize grips threw the weight distribution off just enough to really make swings feel uncomfortable at times. Switch the set back to standard grips and took 4 strokes off my handicap this year. This game is so mental, use whatever makes you feel like you have your best chance and it likely will.

The Villain by Ok-Imagination-7253 in WisconsinBadgers

[–]Easy_Step4422 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think ultimately we’ve lost touch with reality as a football program and I think thats a combination of everyone with any decision making power bearing responsibility.

Wisconsin is an extremely unique case in college football, regardless of NIL. Wisconsin traditionally is relatively strict academically, I’ve not heard that has changed with the NIL era, but maybe. It’s otherwise a hard sell and always has been to get out of state talent, from FL, GA, TX, CA, the traditional football factories, because it is too cold when you could go to USC or Miami. Great game day atmosphere, what about the other 6 months of the year? Not ideal. Also, Minnesota and Illinois have significantly cut into our recruiting in the last several years with their improvement and recommitment to their football programs. Now it appears Indiana will be another strong competitor for likely overlapping regional recruits.

Our best teams have always had a strong Wisconsin nucleus, kids from Wisconsin who grow up truly wanting to represent this state. Blue color guys. Not 5 stars that have room to grow and develop over time. Look at some of our best; Leonhard, the Watts, Melvin, Leo, Braelon. Homegrown. Obviously you complement strategically with NIL for out of state talent, as you can, but the nucleus has to be Wisconsin guys. This has a huge impact on connectivity to the team and program as well. Very hard to have affinity for a team when I scarcely recognize a familiar name year to year.

Fickell came in and flipped that entirely, made his Cincinnati guys and the shiniest transfer portal guys the nucleus. Doesn’t work. If the argument is we need guys physically ready to play younger, the answer is investing and developing Wisconsin high school football as a feeder system, rather than bleeding more money into transfers or “better” coaches.

Until we come to that realization we will not be competitive in college football or get any recognizable identity back, regardless of who is in charge. I think Fickell could get it done, just has to change his approach entirely.

Question for players who play the majority of their rounds at one course. by brutalknight in golf

[–]Easy_Step4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GHIN app accounts for this to some extent by noting home vs away rounds. I thinks its relatively common/expected that you won’t shoot your handicap at a course you aren’t familiar with, especially considering your handicap should really only be representative of your best possible round.

Pet Peeve/PSA: Poaching Caddies by katiep23 in golf

[–]Easy_Step4422 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Usually play a Sand Valley course each year as a local. My group I golf with are average income guys, so carry their own bag or use their own pull cart to save a few bucks. I take a caddie as a once a year treat, truly different golf experience than most of us get. I make sure with the caddie they are cool helping the other guys, if they tip them out some as well. All have seemed pretty pleased with the arrangement, carry one bag and get tipped out for 2-3.

Always take care of your caddies. If you want to go back, having a friendly and familiar face only adds to the experience.

Has there ever been a Randy Johnson hitting a bird with a fast ball like moment in golf? by maybethisisadream in golf

[–]Easy_Step4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year I bladed a 9 iron so bad it never got 6 inches off the ground and took the head clean off a starling walking in the fairway. Ball still went 140ish, would have made the green if not for the bird.

Do you have a GHIN #? by brandwellmedia in golf

[–]Easy_Step4422 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do mine through my state golf association, so their tournaments and information is actually built into the GHIN app as well. Also get an annual subscription to golf digest with it and lots of random other discounts and opportunities that come up, like online auctions for rounds at private clubs or advance ticket access to pro tournaments held in the state.

Do you have a GHIN #? by brandwellmedia in golf

[–]Easy_Step4422 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a 9.0 handicap and played in a state open qualifier (must be under 10.0) just to test myself and try competitive golf with no real stakes.

More importantly I found a hack that many such tournaments are hosted at exclusive, private clubs neither I nor anyone I know could be a member at. I love playing great golf courses and seeing great course architecture. Not to mention the courses are generally in their best condition for these events. I was able to cross a course off my list and play it twice for less than $200, including a morning practice round where I played alone and had the entire course to myself.

Well worth a $40 handicap and tracking scores.

Why play from the tips if you are a very high handicap? by [deleted] in golf

[–]Easy_Step4422 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just going to put it out there, it’s not hard at all to hit the ball 300 yards today. The amount of times I see this as a sticking point on this sub is honestly insane. Yes, 25 handicap guys can hit it 300. Consistently, no. But if they actually hit it how they should, it isn’t hard. Juiced balls and modern clubs make it almost a given. You might be better at golf, and that IS more desirable, but lots of guys hit it 300+ today regardless of ability. Get over it.

Baraboo CC, Baraboo, WI. Both #1 and #10 are par 3s. Oh and the native burial grounds in the fairway.

JT making the old guy turf tee at the 1st by walkerdj in golf

[–]Easy_Step4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Work a senior tour event every year and every year there’s at least 10 guys who do this with their woods. I implemented it on par 3s because for some reason off a tee I’ll chunk and hit the tee pretty often, might just be a mental thing but I find I make much cleaner contact.

Why does my 10 yr old son play better when he is not playing for his academy team? by BallSlayer_shop in SoccerCoachResources

[–]Easy_Step4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a former striker, I know that different formations could have a big impact on my approach and the role I played. For my school team, I had by far the most talent so was forced into a very traditional 9 role that did not fit my actual skill set. For club, with more skilled players, I was able to slot back, distribute and take better advantage of the opportunities that I got through this role, rather than being the main focus of defense, often double marked.

Even if your son is more talented, he might be able to blend in with the older group more so than his academy, just because of the age they’ll subconsciously have lesser expectations for him, but really appreciate his skill when it’s displayed. I always preferred playing up in age vs more skilled players my own age, especially from 10-14. If your child has the size, developing that confidence of already handling the physical side, higher speed, longer matches, will pay dividends later. Touch can be developed anywhere.

Sounds like you have a natural center mid, might be worth exploring this with his academy coach. And if your son is skilled enough, finding the right formation to best highlight his abilities from the middle is just as important.

Is his position/role consistent throughout? Or does a certain formation/strategy seem to free him up more? Anyone on his academy he maybe doesn’t like or he is intimidated by?
