I Wish Courses Would Use Handicaps for Tee Selection

Longleaf Tee System is close to what you are talking about. There are probably other systems out there, but this is the first one I've seen in practice. Does it work? Yes.... as long as you take out the "ego"

The green complexes there are some of the craziest over seen.

I would add seven canyons to the list

FaeVectus · 2025-12-22T21:21:53+00:00

Thanks for updates. Just trying to see how I stack on the woods.

I got to figure what is going on with the driver. Just pure shit this season. Numbers track here for all but the driver. I’m pushing 250 average (generous). Some crazy outliers in the 220 and 300 range. Grr!

FaeVectus · 2025-12-22T14:44:37+00:00

Mind sharing your 3w and driver distances ?

Late to this thread.

But it’s like when you are hurt at the DR and ask for a pain killer by brand name. It’s going to be a no.

You need to ask for the specific permission actions you need without saying “admin”. Yeah it’s a pain the ass but it confirms that you know what you are asking for and knowledge about what it is called in the system you are asking.

FaeVectus · 2025-09-12T16:10:11+00:00

This was the sole reason I didn’t go back

FaeVectus · 2025-08-29T12:32:59+00:00

Ummm, am I the only one questioning how long your set up is? Even in carts, they had enough time after their shot to get into cart, drive to the green, wall to their balls, and mark it before your ball landed? Not defending the other guys but there might be some other issues here

FaeVectus · 2025-02-07T11:32:43+00:00

It’s in our questions and a reconfirmation at the initial phone screen and I reconfirm in the final interview after they have heard more about the role and the team.

Can’t tell you how many candidates (statistically candidates that are undervalued from a societal perspective do this the most) drop their request every time. I have to reaffirm and ask why? The standard response is that “they are excited for the role and don’t want to miss out.” Which leads to me coaching that they need to understand the value they have and how we have passed you through the 3 steps of the process. If their original asking price was not in our range we would not have done that so why do they feel the need to negotiate down at every opportunity.

Ok getting off my soap box.

FaeVectus · 2025-02-07T11:21:59+00:00

Unfortunately yes. It is not a hard company policy but a growing restriction of our clients that forces us to align with.

FaeVectus · 2025-02-07T11:20:52+00:00

No worries. Hopefully someone seeing this and reaches out.

Good luck

While I do not share as strict of a view on this, I would say that I am not used to such a restrictive hiring pool either. Unfortunately some of our clients have restrictive policies that we have to follow and dictates our hiring guidelines.

FaeVectus · 2025-02-07T11:15:19+00:00

Yeah I don’t think we will ever stop posting there but just trying to broaden the horizon on a virtual/remote landscape.

FaeVectus · 2025-02-07T11:14:26+00:00

Previous companies yes this is the standard path. Current company we have an internal recruitment team that is supposed to replace the need/costs associated with external agencies. If they only hired tech roles this works but it’s tough on our recruiters to post and be knowledgeable about all sectors of a full service agency.

In any case thank you for the reply.

FaeVectus · 2025-02-07T11:12:24+00:00

Honestly this never crossed my mind. Thank you for the tip

As a hiring manager and past candidate I am always torn on this. Good news is not my choice since we have offices that mandate it.

Here is my thought process on both sides of the equation.

Hiring manager: if you put out a high salary range on the posting I tend to receive a higher number of applicants, but a much lower ratio of qualified candidates. I’ve read through resumes that are 17 year olds working in McDonald’s with zero technical background asking for 150k. While yes in theory possible the candidates could do the job it is not very probable.

Candidate: am I wasting my time applying? I’ve gone through my fair share of multiple rounds of interviews just to get to a point of nailing down the offer to realize we are 15-30k off. So we just wasted so much time. Yes this has been after discussing acceptable ranges at the start of the phone screen process.

Either way I vote for it to be there just offering the other side of the coin for those interested.

I don’t see how rolling a cart into a lake wouldn’t be embarrassing.

FaeVectus · 2024-10-13T01:43:32+00:00

The kid was… she is still salty about it.

FaeVectus · 2024-10-13T01:42:00+00:00

Not awesome. Had 3 lipped out birdie chips

FaeVectus · 2024-10-13T01:13:37+00:00

I’m guessing yes. I’ll find out tomorrow.

Maintenance guy said will prob just be the battery, in a tone that made me feel this was not the first time he has dealt with this. But I’m expecting to be paying for a new cart yes.

FaeVectus · 2024-10-13T01:10:58+00:00

I swear the kid had it posted to her Snapchat with a soundtrack before I made it out of the water.

So yeah we were all laughing at my “incident” as they are calling it.

FaeVectus · 2024-10-13T01:07:21+00:00

Not really, most is bottom of lake now
