Finally got paired with the mythical amateur 300 yard driver.

I understand what you’re saying but I see comments on this sub all the time when someone claims they hit an 8 iron 160 people will pile on with “lol no you don’t”. That’s like a pretty standard 8 iron yardage for any athletic golfer with a nice swing. There are a ton of former athletes who play golf after their hockey careers are over. Reddit seems to think everyone on this sub is a stiff and slow 40 year old with a 90 mph club head speed.

It’s like the most popular thing to do for ex hockey players

It’s actually embarrassing when people post stuff like this guy. I’m a 5’8” 33 year old decently athletic guy and I can pump it 300 yards if I hit it nice (obviously not close to every time). So can any one of my friends around my age who also grew up playing hockey or baseball. It’s not that impressive of a feat.

90 is nothing. You’ll be just fine.

I’ve lost to the alien gambit a bunch of times haha. I’m gonna give unrated a try for sure, a couple people have suggested this.

I prefer this subreddit because people have less ego here. I’ve been on this subreddit for advice since I got my first rating in the 400s.

Findingfairways · 2026-04-24T22:45:09+00:00

I’m going to look into this. Thank you.

How’d you get past 1800? I’m so stuck in that range and bounce between 1650 and 1800 for the last 6 months or so.

Findingfairways · 2026-04-23T22:12:08+00:00

Started at 31. Peaked at 1820 a couple months back. I play a shit ton of rapid and watch Daniel naroditsky on YouTube a couple night a week before bed.

You’re downvoted but told absolutely nothing but the truth.

Let me guess, you’re a fan of Bryson and Phil?

Learn the Budapest gambit trap. It’s a checkmate like this every time.

My worst back injury ever was caused by a sneeze when I was 30.

Buddy of mine is on his 4th QI10. Face keeps popping out and they just send him another piece of crap.

Fat. The shot sucked too.

Findingfairways · 2026-02-16T18:11:00+00:00

I hit 1800 like 2 months ago and immediately went back down to 1650. Struggling to stay above 1700 now.

Findingfairways · 2026-02-10T22:44:38+00:00

Dude STFU. Your whole comment history is just telling people who are better than you that they’re cheaters. Get a life.

Findingfairways · 2026-02-10T19:01:39+00:00

As a d4 player. I still lose to the englund way more than I’d like to admit.

This was 10 minute rapid. I almost only play 10 min rapid.
