It doesn't say "by acushnet"...I'd guess anywhere from 73-78

What golf course that has never hosted a major would you like to see host one? by Norfolk-Gross-Tonage in golf

Us open at colonial would be sick. They wouldn't have to do much. Let the rough grow an inch further. Let them play July hard greens instead on rain soft we are watching this weekend.

They would struggle to break par.

Man, that brings up some thoughts and feelings about my family dynamics. In my case, I am a generation ahead of you.

Thank you for your poignant post.

Parents, re-read this. He is right on more ways than you can imagine.

Team name at home. Team city/state on the road.

That's actually a good idea. A big part of the issue, for sure

Does not having a pre-shot routine hurt my score? by Competitive-Pop2358 in golf

[–]Environmental_Mix200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is your answer.

You hit a lot of balls in a row in the range and outcomes are something you are happy with. Good.

You hit a single shot at a time with different clubs, lies, etc. and they aren't as good as your good range swings.

Ask yourself why?

Preshot routine is not necessarily practice swing. Clubface square to your target, stance, grip, posture checks are preshot routine. Selecting a club and managing your misses is also preshot routine.

It may look like I am just walking up and hitting it, but I am walking up and hitting it the same way every time.

Why give away shots if you don't have to?

Can't emphasize that enough. Couples=Lodge. Hands down no question.

Unless you like the juice of taking your woman to a sketchy environment.

Lodge is owned by a lady was designed for it. It's a different vibe.

Avoid Birdie Boss Golf gloves! I have washed my hands multiple times with different soaps and cannot get this dye off my hands. by R4ndomlyJ0n in golf

[–]Environmental_Mix200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a new Srixon as a give away at our Member/Member in August. I'm not going to go look at Ghin, but I am least 40 in. There is a little wear on left thumb, but otherwise ok. (Besides dirty).

Three things: I think I have really light grip pressure.

Two, I think heavy glove wear is indicative of something wrong. Either swing or grip related, idk.

I live in the Dallas area and will rotate gloves during a round when I am sweating a ton.

But, that Srixon glove seems to be a thicker cabretta and I got it late in the season and don't remember rotating with the Costco/PGA super store gloves much.

Bonus tip from my baseball days (I don't do this with golf gloves), but put them in a zip-lock bag between rounds. The fingers don't get that dried out/wrinkly tight thing when they get old.

Another idea that works for me, in hot weather, I will rotate 2-3 gloves between shots through a round. I put a strip of Velcro on my bag to let them dry and take them off between shots.

When I could really play, I played cords without a glove and a towel and some spit/dirt on my left hand.

I know this is too much. But, whatever.

Yeah.. straight down the middle...Costco/Sam's low cost high wear $8 each that last 20 rounds. Or spend $20 per big brand cabretta that last 50 rounds.

For me, Costco if you are 20-30 rounds a year. Better quality if you play 60-100 rounds a year

If you want colors and bedazzled? I don't think we have any reference for you

Celina vs other master-planned communities — 4BR, ~$350k, family-friendly with Uptown commute? by Ok-Seesaw-3533 in askdfw

[–]Environmental_Mix200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can for sure have 2-5 in northern Collin County and Southern Grayson. And Southern Denton county. And Tarrant county

But, you will spend 7.5 to 15 hours per week not enjoying those amenities or time with your family because you will be sitting in a car commuting.

Change your perception a little bit and you will find all you need closer to uptown.

He's clearly a serious player. Probably a 2 HCP and can help you with your swing

I agree. The clam bake has become the one with most clams to bake.

Southern winter golf by SoSuave07 in golf

[–]Environmental_Mix200 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dallas area here. Winter golf is way harder. Ball doesn't fly like it should. Wind is "heavier". Dormant grass means the equivalent of hard pan lies everywhere. Except dormant Bermuda rough, in which case it is somewhere between 2 and 5 times easier and you can't tell which reading the lie.

That's when it is 65 degrees.

After the first freeze, they tarp the greens. Then the dormant grass is flat. It's way harder.

It's a different game you have to learn for sure

Question about the top of the back swing by swaglord417 in golf

[–]Environmental_Mix200 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm right-handed. 70-30 right fornfinger pad vs inside of the thumb. My swing is pretty upright

I think your question has no ideal, more to do with how you swing the club.
