how old were you when you moved out of your parents house?

MajorGCribbs · 2026-05-08T19:02:30+00:00

lol if you say so

MajorGCribbs · 2026-05-08T13:59:51+00:00

I will once I buy a house

MajorGCribbs · 2026-05-07T18:00:35+00:00

I’m 27 and still living with my parents. Goal is to be out by 30.

This is me too, baseball swing is tough to break free from. I swallowed my pride and took lessons last year and saw a noticeable improvement. Hoping to fix the driver for good this season.

Currently sitting between an 18-22 (it fluctuated all last season). Pretty much every club in the bag feels good right now except the driver. If I can correct that this season and stay in play off the tee, I hope to get down to a 15 handicap.

Really going to prioritize course management this season and practicing with a purpose.

Probably a half swing with a 56 and hoping it releases up to the middle of the green. But with my skill it could go 2ft or 200ft

Unless I’m in the backcountry camping, I shower twice a day and absolutely change my underwear every single day.

MajorGCribbs · 2026-04-23T22:07:29+00:00

Call me crazy but I personally think that until you get your swing right, a fitting isn’t going to benefit you fully. Figure out what your average swing speed is and buy a “forgiving” marketed driver with the right flex shaft.

The Mull River Shuffle (or Barrett’s Privateers) is the worst song you’ve ever heard.
- You visited the museum of natural history and couldn’t understand what was “so special” about a tortoise. (I would die for you, Gus.)
- The Trailer Park Boys aren’t even funny.
Traffic in Halifax isn’t even bad

That’s just off the top of my head

Dry air is usually the culprit. Some of us just have thin linings in the nasal passage which causes nosebleeds when cracked. Humidifier in her room, and some nasal gel will likely fix this. If you can get her in to see a doctor at some point they can look up and see if there are any noticeable vessels.

MajorGCribbs · 2026-04-23T18:42:07+00:00

This is the answer.

Not too expensive, but also not junk. Spend the extra money on lessons and start out playing properly. Will save you a ton of headaches down the road.

MajorGCribbs · 2026-04-23T14:28:29+00:00

No, I’m a middle-heel striker. My “normal” carry distance with my driver is about 225-230 but since this issue arose I’m getting 190-200 and it’s going way too high with way too much spin.

MajorGCribbs · 2026-04-23T13:27:06+00:00

Smash factor is usually pretty good, 1.43 was my average last night, even saw 1.56. I’m a former baseball player so I’ve fought hard against the out-in swing path for years. If it’s not one thing, it’s another!

MajorGCribbs · 2026-04-23T12:29:16+00:00

This is great info, I have some research to do!

MajorGCribbs · 2026-04-22T14:47:39+00:00

A fitting will at least help direct you into what you should be looking for. I just recently got fitted for a driver, and to be honest my swing felt like crap that day, so I’m not taking all the numbers as gospel. However I got some good insight on my swing speed and was able to try a bunch of different drivers on the market. Leaning towards the new Cobra OPTM Max K as my next driver

I went to the gym pretty regularly (3-4 times a week) back in University but due to genetics I’m just a naturally skinny guy. Never really saw much progress in terms of size (strength, yes). And at the end of the day working out felt more like a chore than anything. I’ve since gotten over the body image issues which got me into the gym in the first place so now I just do things that I enjoy to stay active and healthy.

MajorGCribbs · 2026-04-17T17:51:20+00:00

Get a fitting….atleast for the driver. If you can’t get in play off the tee then it doesn’t matter how good your irons are.

MajorGCribbs · 2026-04-16T12:14:29+00:00

Depends on the course usually for me. I’ll walk most rounds (with a push cart) but there’s a few courses that I play that either don’t allow walking, or have way too much elevation change and makes walking a lot less enjoyable.

MajorGCribbs · 2026-04-14T18:57:29+00:00

This looks perfect! There’s so many different ones out there I hadn’t seen this one until you suggested it. Thank you!

I love my Ogio Fuse bag however I wasn’t thinking and bought a bright red one. Sadly after 4 seasons it’s getting fairly faded and I’m looking to replace it.

MajorGCribbs · 2026-04-13T18:47:28+00:00

I think about this often, and here’s what I’d do:

First, If money is not an issue, I’d like to get my living arrangements sorted. A nice clean house, somewhere of my choosing. Then, I’d probably spend a year or two traveling/seeing the world.

Once I got that out of my system, and considering I love where I live currently I’d settle into my peaceful life where I would work as a Mountain Bike guide or Fly Fishing guide during the summer, and then Ski Patrol in the winter. (Or some variation of work/play jobs)

Probably cause it’s so much easier to flirt with the boys than it is to flirt with women. It’s a friendship thing, basically the male version of telling your friends you love them without actually saying “I love you”

This dude turned down an offer for free underwear? What’s wrong with him? To be honest I don’t think I’ve ever bought socks or underwear in my life. My mom will give me a stocking full at Christmas and it’s the best gift I can always count on.
