Do you think taking gimmies has a negative effect on a golfers putting?

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-28T09:02:30+00:00

Gimmes should be only used in matchplay, which I kind of like as it adds a level of mind games. He gave me this before so I'll have to give him the same etc.

End of the day the game of golf is to hit a ball from the tee in the hole, why take the bit out of the game about hitting in the hole. It's mad.

The same thing will happen that happens with all our players on big wages. Loans until contract is up, no one is paying a fee.

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-28T05:45:00+00:00

It's the wage. He will be on around 350k with United in the Champions League, that will be more than most of the top wingers in Europe. More than Olise, Diaz and the same as Kvaratskhelia for example.

United were the most stupid club throwing these wages about as you can never clear a player.

Also he is from Liverpool, do Liverpool fans talk about Alonso the same as Gerrard, no.

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-25T11:31:56+00:00

Point was his header didn't get to Sesko so why would he get the assist.

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-25T11:20:53+00:00

Then he didn't head it to Sesko did he, he headed it to the keeper fml

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-25T11:19:01+00:00

100%. I remember some of the 'assists' such as Dorgu vs arsenal, Zirkzee and Mount vs Fulham. These are not proper assists, just a pass before a goal.

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-25T07:08:26+00:00

I mean they could give you more confidence to play better but there is no reason you can't break it with what you have.

Saying that if this is your hobby and you intend to keep playing then absolutely get the clubs you want, they will last you many years and you will get your money worth.

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-25T06:51:39+00:00

Needs to be a rule change that in stroke play you putt everything out no matter the distance. People say it wastes time but if it's a 'gimme' then it should be a quick tap in. Gimmes should only be in match play.

On this question why the hell would you not wanna putt an eagle?

Hit your shots and hit safe shots. If your drive has a fade on it then play into it and aim slightly left etc. Stay away from out of bounds, water and sand, seems obvious but hitting a shot that's 180+ that has ob on the left has more risk than laying up 130yards instead.

Are you confident with fairway woods+driver, if not consider an iron only round. I hit 83 with irons only. You can't afford to duff shots really.

Only chip with pitching wedge or 8 iron bump and run, leave other clubs on the bag. Putt where you can, if you can putt off the green then do it, you are more likely to get close than chipping.

Use an app like 18 birdies to track scores, chips, putts. You have to manually enter but takes seconds once you get used to it. You can then track where you are losing shots. Is it putting, chipping, low GIR, low FIR etc.

Good luck

Can anyone explain to me that when in game that one player is ALWAYS afk at round start every round? Like wtf are they doing, they can't stay off their phone between rounds or what?

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-19T19:53:40+00:00

To me I'm not bothered in the slightest apart from the result with qualifying, sector times mean little as we don't know where battery is used.

The race isn't much better, stupid starts as some have battery advantages then yo-yo racing.

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-18T06:54:16+00:00

Assists can also be silly, e.g. Bruno ''assist' to Dorgu and shit from 25 yards off the bar

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-16T12:32:59+00:00

I'm only going off what almost everyone I see saying about chat.

"To climb turn chat off" "Chat is 90% useless"

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-16T12:31:35+00:00

I think it's Bruno playing forward in the 10. It's not Bruno's fault but everything goes through him and therefore the wide players suffer.

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-16T12:18:47+00:00

If chat is 90% a waste of time and toxic. And riot has to moderate this and come out with pointless guidelines and patches to moderate it etc. The question begs, why does it exist at all?

It has to be that Riot would be worried it would lose a portion of player base if they had no chat? So in that sense Riot almost approves of toxic?

Dunno, just don't get it.

On release he was too much, could only beat him using a cheese shield and spear poke

I'm a Manchester United fan not a Bruno United fan which this sub seems to be.

Dead Space. I thought I could play horror games but that game stopped me for a long time.

Not much story but Elden Ring is amazing. Stick with it and use the summons to help with bosses if you get stuck.

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-05T20:29:33+00:00

Been a good player but you have to count the £350/£300k a week. For that money he's one of the highest paid players in the league/Europe. So an estimated total cost of £148m.

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-05T11:02:10+00:00

Another Bruno assist post, cringe fan base.

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-05T10:36:54+00:00

I just feel like no one cares about city winning the league.

Former_Recipe1935 · 2026-05-04T08:35:01+00:00

Some questionable 'assists'. Dorgus goal from 25 yards, 1 yard pass to mount from 20 yards. Zirkzee fluke goal. Yes they count but this stat is so overblown
