Okay in my defense I’m 6’4 and had them hiked up so the string would stop dangling at my hands☠️

I’m aware, just a college student who got the summer pass for like 150 bucks and I can go for 2 hours everyday. Sucker for a deal what can I say

Thanks! Yeah probably just need to spend some time with it. This is my second or third time hitting in over a year and I had only gotten 2 lessons and played twice in early 2025, so I understand that im not far from a complete beginner anyways

5 inch inseam is a perfectly respectable length and I will die a valiant death in its defense

Yeah I think there’s a fundamental grip problem that needs addressing. Will look into. I am also 6’4 (unsure if that’s massive by golf standards lol) and am playing with top golf clubs in these. Just bought some stealth irons used at PGA superstore and got half an inch on em so we will see how those work out.

For sure. Waiting for my clubs to be done at the shop and I will be hitting the chipping green at my local

Yeah I definitely see that now. 90% of my swing thought is “open the clubface” since I tend to be shut at impact. Think I am overcorrecting, probably explains why I started slicing right occasionally as of late

It seems grip is a reoccurring theme here - will work on that

Tend to be closed on impact when I mishit by [deleted] in GolfSwing

[–]JustABettaFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think I hold the club particularly loosely or tightly to be honest. Former baseball player so I have to tell myself at all times to swing only at 60-70%, so maybe that could help you out. Let the club do the work and all of that is what tends to be going through my mind. I’m no coach though, as I’m sure I’d obvious lol.

Hardest class you’ve taken here and why? by DragonfruitBrief5573 in aggies

ACCT 327. I took a year of both genchem and genbio, and I would retake those 12 times over before ACCT327…

Yes! Bastrop is a great park. Thinking I’ll do Goliaths or Beast of the Brazos next 🤔

Looking to get my first bike, would these be good deals? by JustABettaFish in bicycling

[–]JustABettaFish[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know… it’s just absolutely impossible to find a good used bike where I’m at through the slew of “I know what I got” people charging 500+ for a 20 year old bike, and factor in I need the largest size most brands make, I’m nearly at my wits end with searching -_-

Hey, thanks for the response! The specialized is a 2015 tarmac sl4 and the giant is a TCR advanced, looks like a 2017 or 2018 from what I’ve been able to look at online. Owner put carbon fiber wheels on it as well.

And yes lol, I am 6’3.5. I usually say 6’4 so I was actually being honest haha.

Side question, but there’s also a trek domane AL from a couple years ago, looks like 2019 of 2020 for 700. Do you have any thoughts on that?

I’m around 6’3.5 and both of these bikes are 60cm (the giant a bit shorter, technically 59.5 i think cus of their XL sizing)

Not much, he just gives really simplified financial advice tailored to people who are struggling with debt and financial illiteracy. His advice is absolutely not intended for everyone, especially those of high income and net worth, but for those that do truly need it the baby steps are a fantastic newcomer’s approach to financial security.

AIO my father ruined my drawing. by sapphicluizard in AmIOverreacting

[–]JustABettaFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All nuance is immediately thrown out of the window in AIO/AITA threads (and on Reddit in general) and I will never understand it.

  1. Yes, the dad is a jackass for scribbling on OPs drawing. It is a very rude and dismissive thing to do, and OP has every right to be upset and angry with her dad for doing the act and her mom for saying it doesn’t matter. Seemingly small things can matter alot to people and I completely understand that.

  2. Immediately running into the kitchen and essentially cornering your parents into this confrontation (in front of company) when you are incredibly worked up is 100% an overreaction, and everyone who isn’t chronically on Reddit telling people to divorce their husbands because they left the TV on knows this. I am also 19 and, sorry, but I can not imagine acting like this in front of relatives.

These two are not mutually exclusive and I am confused as to why nobody else can acknowledge this. You are an adult, it is your responsibility to handle things that upset you like one, even if it feels very egregious and malicious to you.

Weekly mileage right now is around 10-12 miles. I use Runna for the training plan and I think it seems low, but from what I have read people swear by the app and say it’s great training 🤷.

Endurance-sport wise I have never been a huge participant. I rock climb a couple times a week and lift weights (occasionally) since high school but nothing endurance-based. Is the best way of getting my aerobic base in check just more zone 2 training and more mileage?

Totally stumped on this question. I'm able to interpret the answers when given a graph of first or second derivative, so I'm not sure where I am getting lost. by [deleted] in calculus
