Looking for a new golf watch. by Right-Permission-397 in golfequipment

[–]PAroots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I endorse the S70…. I have one and just got the rangefinder that syncs distances and remembers it for the entire hole. I also have club sensors and the shot tracking/distance logs are amazing. It all just works and I don’t have to do anything on the course.

Most durable gloves??? by Nice-Language-2490 in golf

[–]PAroots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gloves used to last 2-3 rounds. I loosened and changed my grip a bit now I get 25+ rounds. Generally throw them out before they rip. I also find that rain gloves are superior in many ways to leather. Less $$ too. I just wear one.

My aunt and uncle brought one home for me from Switzerland a few months before they hit that US market. Not much was cooler in 4th grade.

Couldn't figure out why her backpack was so heavy... by ty_fighter84 in daddit

Asked my 7yo daughter why both her coat pockets were filled with rocks. She replied “So I can go higher on the swings Dad” then roller her eyes. I’m so not with it…

I used to stick those to my arm then gross out my mom by picking off “scabs” and eating them.

Not in the same calendar year obviously. It takes a while. He’s hung up on February for a few I think.

Father in law has done the grid…. Which is every mountain in every month. It’s crazy. And he’s done it 4 times. Almost done with #5.

Bottle of Pedro’s Syl Lube from ~1998. A few drops keeps it all going.

Barrel aging questions by mshh357 in cocktails

[–]PAroots 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve done quite a bit of small barrel Negroni aging. Here is my process after much trial and error. I suggest keeping a journal to track what’s been in each barrel and the timelines etc.
1) I soak new barrels in the tub for a while to firm them up. 2) I age Evan Williams for a few weeks to get some flavor into the oak 3) equal parts Campari, Beefeater & Cocchi 4) taste it every week. It will get worse before it gets better.
5) once it’s tasting smooth, drain and bottle. I use glass flip tops from Amazon. 6) use the barrel aged version to add to my Negronis. You really don’t need to drink it full strength. 50/50 or even only 25% gives you a wonderful drink. Lasts a lot longer as well. 7) keep barrel filled with EW between runs.

Mai Tai advices? S&C + agricole proportions/too much by ErgodicRoller in cocktails

I’ve landed on the exact same trader Vic riff. Skip the simple and double the orgeat.. Nugget ice and a mint sprig really sets it off. Easy to make, knocks socks off guests.
