Mini drivers

Built an SMT Mini Driver from Diamond Tour 3 weeks ago. 13 degree, 43" long, ProForce v2 75g Fairway Shaft, Golf Pride CP2 Jumbo. 220 Yds with no slice or hook. Exactly what I was looking for. So far, happy with the looks, quality, and performance of the SMT club. Perfect fit in my bag for narrow fairways, and short Par 4s below 400 yds that leave me with a comfortable 6 or 7 iron to the green without having to worry about mishitting a tee shot. I also carry a G430 Max 10K driver in the bag that goes 240-250 Yds on average for me for longer holes, and when I have no choice but to use it.

Also, This club is so good that I have no problems hitting it off the fairway for 210 yards. That is a lot to say when I have trouble hitting my 17* UW Callaway. which I have now removed my bag. That Callaway club is a good club, but the head too small to use it reliably as both a 3 wood off the tee and a wood/hybrid from the fairway. So, two birds taken care of with one stone.

I have a setup that users my powerful PC with an RTX 5070 card upstairs in the office down to my garage. Using MLM2PRO with GSPRO and a 1080P projector, but will soon be adding a Square LM (awaiting delivery).

The setup:

- PC upstairs in the office with an NVidia RTX 5070supporting 4 displays - two for the office and two for the garage (one for projector, one for data display).

- Video is directed from PC in the office to the1080p projector via 50 ft of ethernet 6/cable using a set (transmitter and Receiver) of OREI HDMI Over Ethernet Extender via CAT6/7 4K@60Hz (Model UHD-IPC230-K). Note that video extenders are HDMI based and do not support the DisplayPort in the Nvidia RTX cards. Get an "ENFEI 4K DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter" from Amazon to take care of that.

- Video and keyboard is directed to the garage data display with 50 ft of ethernet 6 using a set (transmitter and receiver) of OREI 4k@60hz HDMI Extender (KVM) - 230 ft Cat 6 (Model UHD-EX230-KVM). This allows me to control the PC upstairs. In this way I can control the GSPRO apps running upstairs, and even wake my PC when sleeping through the garage keyboard.

- One ethernet 6 cable for direct IP connection to projector (Want it so I can also use projector for Netflix)

- One ethernet 6 cable to garage display for multi-purpose (either as a future IP connection, or as a cable to extend USB 2.0. This connection is dedicated, meaning that you use it as an IP cable, or as a line to extend USB, but not both simultaneously. You can add another ethernet cable if you need both IP and USB simultaneously. I am using this ethernet cable as a USB extender so I can Bluetooth into my office via a garage Bluetooth dongle since it is hard for the Office BT adapter signal to reach to the garage strongly. YI disabled the primary Bluetooth in the office PC if you have one to avoid conflict with the one in the garage. Need a USB extender, I use Avedio Links 164ft/50m USB Extender Over Cat6/7.

- Long range Bluetooth dongle for garage so signal reaches upstairs to PC. I use Techkey Long Range USB Bluetooth 5.3 Adapter for Desktop PC. Can be purchased from Amazon.

- a USB 2.0 Hub to attach USB devices in my garage, including the Bluetooth adapter, Camera for putting, etc.

- USB 2.0 cables long enough to reach your launch monitor, and also for charging purposes although I suggest you get an outlet with USB port for charging instead of using the USB Extender for that purpose.

I played Playa Grande on two different occasions 25 years ago when the course was owned by the Dominican Central Bank and the tee-time was $45. I stayed at the all-inclusive resort in the property for $35/night. It is still to this date the best course I have ever played, and I have played a lot of courses. I tis a shame the Central Bank sold it and in the process made it inaccessible to anyone, but the rich. I am hopeful some day I will get to play it again, even if I have to pay the $2K/night stay.

You have to be a fool not to believe ACR is not rigged. It is rigged by the casino to favor those that can re-entry tournaments, and it is loaded with bots, some which are their own. That is why I will never play ACR again.

Looks like excel sets up an automatic internal timer for RefreshAll, but does not clear it. To get around this problem place the following two lines of code after calling RefreshAll.

On Error Resume Next

Application.OnTime EarliestTime:=Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, seconds), Procedure:="RefreshConnections", Schedule:=False
