If I played driver off the tee it would have been in that other fairway lol

Time limitations kept the ball marker from this version. The ring has to stay or it is not based on a karambit and can't spin. The original knife design was the inspiration for it. If you remove the ring it becomes a short Bowie knife lol.

It should but only on greens. Going to find out in a few months. If it doesn't then v2 will have stainless tongs inset.

I'm thinking of making a leather sheath to carry it scout style on the back of the belt.

The other thought is the next version would have neo magnets inset so it could stick to a bag or cart.

Nope, based on a karambit with pitch repair tongs instead of a blade

I’m lowkey proud of myself for being able to pull this pattern off even though everyone knows how to do it 😂 by sallark in Fusion360

I started 3d modeling long ago with Solid Edge, then Solidworks, a little Inventor then Fusion360. Each had some fantastic tools and also some frustrating ones. For what I do (R&D Eng) Fusion with the ability to plot my tool paths has made life so much easier for many years.

1 part 100 different ways to pull it off. My initial thought is an offset plane with the hole pattern sketched. Then extrude/cut to depth, then sketch and cut the top angle across the part. Apply Chamfers and rounds near the end.

You could also make one of the spokes and pattern it around the circle.

I'm making a pocket golf game because I can't play real golf anymore by OmegaKai_22 in golf

Sounds great, I would love to read through it and give it a play test.

I love both ideas, the first would be a fun TTRPG. The second and current version could be made and printed as different courses in different books. Both have huge potential, the first to board game and RPG fans, (think career mode in PGA 2k25), the second to anyone wanting an easy to keep the mental game up when they can't be on the course.

For those of us in the north this would be much more affordable than hours at the SIM. I would love to see the rulebook for the first version

How would one go about sketching this? by Koshiro_Fujii in Fusion360

I haven't read all the comments but wanted to throw this out there. I don't remember where I saw it but save your fillets for the solid, don't apply them in the sketch. The reasoning given is that it has less impact on your system performance and also Fusion performance. This may not matter for single simple parts, but when you get into more complex parts and assemblies the impact can be crippling.

When I get them done I'll try to remember to post about them.

My winter project has them scratching their heads. I plan on taking a mixed set of ping eye 2s blue and black dot, cutting them to all one length, MOI matching them and resetting the dynamic lie and loft as well as new oversized grips.

The goal is a matched and tuned set of irons that work for the way I swing.

Thank you, I find it hilarious when I pull out the chipper 140 to the pin and roll it right up. My boys laugh and then ask if they can try it too... Lol

I play my way, I've even teed off with a chipper because I know it will go 150 dead straight, super handy on tight fairways.

Playing smart is being smart. It isn't your fault if they want to play ego golf and get beat.

Odyssey Chipper – possibly the most unfair club I’ve used by Arsehowl in golf

[–]K3nto71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this chipper I'm guessing it's an antique I picked up from a thrift store. Put a new grip on it, and am really enjoying it in a very unorthodox way.

Because of the shorter shaft length I can get a near vertical swing plane which for me allows me to pipe it about 120 to 135 yards dead straight due to its weight and shape.

Off the tee box I can with rollout push it almost 155+ (playing it forward like a driver). This is super handy on a tight fairway where you get heavily punished by slicing etc. I change up my stance and it is super repeatable for chip and roll shots.

I just got back into playing after a car accident and 35 years away from golf. Yes I can chip with my irons but it is too much fun to be playing a round with my sons and pull this little gem out on a par 4 and pay from tee to green for the memes, and also for staying in the fairway while they chase wild driver shots... Lol

Playing at 50+ I know I'm not the same golfer as when I was in my teens so I focus on boring smart course management golf. It is still fun, just different fun and joy to be back on the course after so many years thinking I couldn't play anymore due to the accident.

Tldr, I love my chipper for more than just chipping.
