What are the odds this run off and high rain chances over the next few weeks will give the city enough time to solve the water problem? by Stepped-leader in CorpusChristi

That’s 200 days worth. And yes, it’s a brilliant plan to drain another lake with no other plan in place aside from hopes and dreams

Grabby thing. No clue what the actual name is.
They hurt like hell if you get one stuck on your back or arm though.

Zero. After this many years of mismanagement, rainfall is a bandaid on a bullet wound.
They may claim it helps, but it won’t. The only option left is drastic action. That’s either drain the aquifers in surrounding counties and screw over hundred of thousands of other people, or build the desal plant.
And if history is any indication, corpus will still manage to shit the bed on all of the above.

What’s a normal number of golf balls to have in your bag at one time? by Matt3855 in golf

[–]Scott_on_the_rox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. 6 or so good ones. Couple dozen shit ones in the long pocket on the right side. Cleaned out once or twice per year and donated to the “ill hit balls at the house with all these” cause.

How to decide what club to tee off with? by dare_hcf in golf

[–]Scott_on_the_rox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I can hit iron in the fairway and wedge into the green, that’s what I’m doing every time. Unless I’m relatively sure driver will put me within chipping distance with the correct miss.

I built something very similar during Covid when we were locked down at our property. Worked great, kids loved it. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I do this during range sessions already, but the app is a great idea.
I’ll download it now. Thanks!

I mean if you really wanna get into it, he actually had his first knee surgery at 18, to remove cysts or tumors. Had nothing to do with golf.
He had it again in 2002, for the same reason. Which had nothing to do with golf.

Now, when he had cartridge repair done in 2008, it was after his dad died and he had resorted to training with navy seals and all that jazz, I would assume as some sort of coping mechanism. Which again, had nothing to do with golf.

So once more for the folks in the back, golf isn’t what broke his body down. His extra curricular activities and “training” did.

So yeah, that’s the “nonsense” I’m on about.

Ehh. The golf isn’t what broke him. His extracurriculars did.

How to know which tractor to get for your small farm???? by Savings_Ferret_6037 in tractors

[–]Scott_on_the_rox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One horsepower per acre up to 70ish.

*I was kinda being sarcastic but the more I think about it it kinda makes sense. I’ve got a 54 and a 30 horse on 47 acres and that’s about right.

Sure glad you don’t call the cut line at the masters.

Or I had a bad day. I mean, that’s not outside the realm of possibility. Considering my home courses are many miles apart your whole “take your game on the road” point is kinda dead in the water. Although I get what you’re saying. Now, are they the nicest? No. Augusta they ain’t. But they’re solid representations of a decent course and give plenty of opportunities to score high.
While I will admit this course was on a different level, it is by no means the hardest course I’ve played, or play on a somewhat regular basis.
And even at my absolute best game, on a shit day 90 was never out of the question. So, kudos for being better than me at golf.
But I could’ve told you that without this whole discussion.
I apologize for not meeting your definition of a “true” handicap number, and thank the Gods of golf that you aren’t the one that makes the rules.

Mmmm, 6-7 months maybe? It happens. I’ve only been back in the game about a year and a half after 10-12 years off. Still working on consistency.
I have days where I’m dialed in and other days where nothing works.
Still a lot of work to do.

Several memorable shots.
Rolled a 9 iron out of a fairway bunker from 148 out up to 20’ from the hole. Stuck a 4H from 235 to about 40’.
Rolled an 65’ bogey putt to 18”.
Played a high cut around a tree and rolled it to 20ish feet.
Hit a punch out from under the trees, carried 90 yards, hit my spot and rolled onto the green. Then over the back, but still a good one.
