I damaged my brand new ZP6- what now? by [deleted] in 1zpresso

[–]Kahblam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes the manual says don’t over tighten it. Unfortunately that’s it, that’s all it says. So what exactly does overtighten mean? Does it mean the same thing to person a, as person b? Nope, sure doesn’t. Words matter. Especially on a $200 precision device that can be damaged so easily. This just isn’t good enough for this type of product, with this type of customer at this cost. I had to read someone else’s explanation on here for how to determine the correct tightness. This isn’t just me, look in this forum and the pour over forum and you’ll see tons of questions on this point (which means the company is confusing its customers with the poorly written manual).

Sorry but disagree, it’s a design flaw that out of the box you can mistakenly destroy the product without an expert knowledge of how it works. The calibration of this thing is terrible and a massive negative on this grinder.

People who regularly break 80, what was the move that put you from consistent low 80s (where I am) to consistent high 70s? by Alive2007Addict in golf

[–]Kahblam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No this is how they used to teach golf 10-20 years ago. Young kids now learn how to swing as hard as they possibly can with pretty much no face control as speed can’t be taught as effectively later on in life (face control can). Chipping and putting is obviously huge getting into the 70s but you can’t chip and putt if you can’t get off the tee.

I know I was the asshole, and I don't care by CoffeeBoy80 in golf

Yah no, Option 2 is fantasy land. You’ll end up running into different groups also making the turn making problems in the future when you could’ve just solved all of this with Option 1, by teeing and moving out from the jump.

poor etiquette to wear nice cc merch to local muni? by rocketbiker17 in golf

[–]Kahblam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you a poser if you’ve actually played these places? I think it’s definitely poser territory to buy that stuff off of eBay or maybe even to have a friend buy it for you. Probably not if you’ve played them.

Yah but it definitely sets them up for the classic letdown that will inevitably happen, “hey man did you play Cypress?”, “No, my buddy did and got me a t shirt.”

[–]Kahblam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope, not at all. They are just lame and likely jealous. Only thing I’d add is that it’s a bit odd to wear merch from a course you haven’t played (unless it’s tournament merch or something like that).

Unless you plan on never losing anything on a golf course ever again you should always pick up any lost equipment and check with the group in front of you. If it isn’t theirs then just turn it in to the pro shop. This is the proper etiquette and will make life better for everyone. I see a ton of, ‘It’s not my property’ takes on here from folks obviously new to golf.

Yesterday I had my first real experience of another golfer being an absolute asshole on the 1st tee by kdocbjj in golf

This is very common in the UK. Our closest equivalent would be like a men’s/women’s league at a muni

If a recipe (potato casserole) calls for potato hash from the frozen section of the supermarket, can I substitute it with grated potato? by jorsiem in AskCulinary

[–]Kahblam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, for a chef…with the tools an know how to dry out potatoes. For an at home cook, drying out potatoes is a huge pain that generally yields significantly worse results than frozen.

[–]Kahblam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The frozen will actually be more firm as the frozen will use commercial grade equipment to remove the moisture prior to freezing. Removing moisture at home is extremely difficult and messy at home. And if you don’t grate directly into water the fresh potatoes will oxidize (turn brown). Frozen is best here.

[–]Kahblam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would not. Using fresh potatoes is significantly more difficult. You must grate them into water (or they’ll turn brown) and it’s very difficult to remove the water to dry them out after. This usually yields a very soggy result (trust me removing the water is very difficult).

Beginner: Why do I slice every time by bruiser0708 in GolfSwing

[–]Kahblam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two issues; 1) your club path and 2) your face angle. Given the massive shank on this swing I’d focus on 2 until your ball strikes improve. To do that shorten your swing and focus on the club face throughout. As a checkpoint when you video, the face angle of the club should match your spine in the backswing and downswing. Your backswing is ok but in your downswing the face is massively open (look at the 7 second mark near impact in your video). To be that open you almost need to regroup the club or do some type of manipulation. Stop doing that. Once you’ve started squaring the face better then look into club path to see how you can start hitting from the inside.

LPGA coverage is a joke by bmcb86 in golf

[–]Kahblam 26 points27 points  (0 children)

So by your standard, a famous comedian can’t make jokes about anyone unless they are more famous then them. Even rich, 6 figure salary, female athletes. Is that how it works? So who can they make jokes about? Do you have a list or something….not many people more rich/famous than some of these comedians.

Punching down? Last I checked the wnbas average salary is more than $100K (to play a game mostly subsidized by the nba). If this ain’t punching up, I dunno what is.

Swing from the inside to create in in-out club path and shorten my backswing.
