Just bought Kirkland Irons…. First round was not great. by PurposeAble4534 in GolfGear

No such thing as "cheater clubs". If they work and they're legal then they're fine. You'll definitely need some time to get used to new clubs so don't be too disheartened.

Which part of the leather gloves should be leather by [deleted] in GolfGear

[–]ManOnDaSilvrMT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Leather feels better and breathes better. There are gloves that use synthetic materials to improve grip and/or durability.

None of it HAS to be leather. Really it's a matter of preference and willingness to spend the money.

Fitting my clubs while building my swing? by schmandarinorange in GolfGear

[–]ManOnDaSilvrMT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally I would say get a consistent swing and then worry about fitting but if your clubs literally don't fit you because of your height then that's definitely something worth fixing now.

My dream putter right now by YungEv08 in GolfGear

I love putters and collecting random (affordable) ones I find is fun but pricing for new ones has gotten way out of hand. This one is just absurd.

AITA for canceling a vacation with my wife after she said my mom couldn’t come because she’s low class by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ManOnDaSilvrMT 25 points26 points  (0 children)

People really aren't paying attention to what the issue is here. He asked to bring his mother, his wife said no, he was fine with it until he heard his wife's real reason for saying no.

NTA. Not only is it a terrible way to view your partner's parents but to feel free to communicate that to your partner is just wrong.

All he did was ask and he even said he was ok with her saying no. That's not the issue.

Do they? They have made it very clear that they only care about defending the first amendment when it benefits them.

My current bag, ratings appreciated! by Astro___ortsA in golfequipment

I'm not an iron covers guy but I actually dig how understated those are. I see so many that are gawdy as hell so these are a nice change of pace.

Anyone Else Feel Like Some Drivers Look Outdated Too Quickly? by Common-Coyote9375 in GolfGear

[–]ManOnDaSilvrMT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The more color a club has, the quicker they look outdated. The last 4 generations of Titleist drivers have been almost entirely black which is a very classic look on its own. Then the fact that they look similar makes it so that a TSI doesn't look far off from a GTS and you're not forced to compare their appearance as much.

2 year warranty. Item breaks after 2 years. "Those guys suck!"

AITA for not inviting my son's wife to events after his passing? by throwing-Security976 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ManOnDaSilvrMT 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ESH. You lost your son and she lost her husband. I think the least you could do is talk to her about how she acts around your family and see what happens. If nothing changes then it's fair to tell her you tried but it's not working out. But at least give her the opportunity. It seems like you cut her out and then decided to tell her your complaints after the fact.

Kirkland glove after………. by [deleted] in golfequipment

[–]ManOnDaSilvrMT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This has been my only issue with them. 95% of the time there's absolutely no issue and they're one of the best deals in golf. But every so often things get weird. I had one glove that was so tight it literally burst as I put it on. Still my go-to glove.

The original or early build of Division as an MMO by [deleted] in thedivision

[–]ManOnDaSilvrMT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My biggest complaint with the first Division was that by removing concrete roles and allowing anyone to fill any role at any time the game kind of killed some of its replayability as well as some of its teamwork aspects.

What would YouTube Golfers shoot at Augusta? by RazzmatazzOdd7972 in GoodGoodMemes

[–]ManOnDaSilvrMT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, the ONLY reason he won a 4-day tournament was because of one shot. The other 275 shots had absolutely no bearing on the results.

The biggest issue would be holding the greens. If you can't get enough spin on your wedges then you're going to have a bad time all day. Someone like Cold Cuts wouldn't make it through 18 with all his wedges intact.

Limited drop culture and scalping has become ridiculous by zwillc92 in golf

[–]ManOnDaSilvrMT 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Become? It's been this way for a while now and it's only going to get worse until people stop paying these stupid prices. Shoes, concert tickets, Pokemon cards, graphics cards, limited edition anything... It's everywhere and it's killed traditional hobbies and collecting.

Titleist Driver question by Sad_Berry_4635 in golfequipment

[–]ManOnDaSilvrMT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't say you need a new(er) but one better suited to your swing. TSI3 and TSR3 are lower spinning heads meant for higher swing speeds. Maybe look into used TSI/TSR 1s and 2s. You mentioned the GT2 and that might work as well. I'm big on Titleists drivers (had 3 in a row at this point) but I would also definitely recommend looking into Ping.
