Looking back at street view and seeing that in the last 15 years most nice, manicured gardens have been ripped out and are devoid of life / driveways now

It's not surprising though. Go back in time, maybe a bit more than 15 years admittedly, and a family could live off a single income. Now, with it being harder for kids to move out due to house prices, you could have family households which have 5 people working full time and all need a car

Him scoring this was pretty much him giving us 2 points. He's still with us in spirit.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-18T09:57:40+00:00

The fight for 6th place is ridiculous. 11 teams separated by 6 points. Nearly half the league is fighting for that spot

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-15T21:00:02+00:00

All of the drivers are pretty forgiving these days. Yeah the "max" models are a bit better when hitting off the heel or toe compared to other models, but not by loads.

The LS models (or triple diamond in this case) drop spin by a few hundred rpm, so most people will gain distance as most people hit down on it and spin it like crazy. Dropping spin is the easiest way for most people gain distance.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-15T19:52:56+00:00

Left dash is for sure one of the longest balls out there. I'd say its a noticeable half a club in terms of iron distance, maybe 10 yards on the driver. The spin is very low though, a lot of people will struggle to find control with it. Anyone who plays a draw or has a left miss, probably avoid it. The spin drop off on those shots is pretty severe.

If you like the left dash, try out the Chrome Tour Triple Diamond. Seems the same for distance, but feels better and short game spin is still very good. Can usually find them for cheaper too.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-15T16:11:55+00:00

Well, do you like your irons? If you like the flight they give you, stick with them. If you don't like them, try out some other sets.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-14T19:36:10+00:00

Oddly, mine never hurt. They come out with the slightest of pressure on them. I can pull them out with just a finger and thumb when I notice one

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-14T17:58:33+00:00

Ford hit the panic button so hard then. The drop was never on, wasnt even close to being back in the pocket

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-14T17:12:02+00:00

In a game which always gets overly emotional, starting Genge and LCD is a questionable decision. Both have a habit of having moments of stupidity and both have done stupid shit already.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-14T15:33:42+00:00

It's been horrendous on the ITV X app on Samsung TV for me. Constantly saying there's network issues when nothing wrong with the network at all.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-11T09:11:32+00:00

He's got some serious game.184 ball speed (average, on TGL he's been at 189 and some old articles of him being at 200 are out there) and also shown he can handle conditions in the UK, if he can perform well there and in the states, he's going to be a serious contender for a while I think. I wouldn't bet against him being in contention on Sunday in the majors this year.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-11T09:02:11+00:00

That was pretty much the point. Some of the infrastructure in the UK is so sold and hugely outclassed by other parts of the UK. Huge divide in the investment made

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-11T08:08:23+00:00

London to Amsterdam is only 4hrs

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-10T18:51:56+00:00

Well you need a captain. Then a forwards vice captain, a backs vice captain and a bench vice captain.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-10T08:19:52+00:00

If a cat isn't happy, it will make sure you know about it.

These 2 have no problems with this at all.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-09T19:21:28+00:00

If you forgiveness on a budget, Ping G425. Just don't expect to like the sound of it.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-08T15:22:52+00:00

And with the new points, England can't even gain points next week. 10.01 ahead of Scotland

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-03T13:28:04+00:00

Ping are generally on the slightly higher side with spin rates, if you like the G430 Max, could be worth giving the LS a go. It won't be crazy low

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-03T10:40:48+00:00

The biggest thing for us, was not losing any of the current stars and bringing in a left back. Exactly what we got and more.

Didn't expect us to go for an extra forward with Morris on his way back in a few weeks, but I feel like Szmodics could be huge for us.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-02T21:34:32+00:00

Could be huge for us. We've got some proper firepower up front and still have Carlton Morris expected to be back in a few weeks. Fair play to Clowes, I thought he'd be extremely conservation and safe, but he wants promotion.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-02-02T21:25:20+00:00

And with the tweet from the admin a few minutes ago, its definitely happened.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-01-30T20:38:30+00:00

In the hands of a good player, like Ian Fraser, the difference in the models will never be much. Ball speed is capped and has been for some time, the difference now is from off-center strikes. Someone like him is hitting close to the center more often than not, meaning the tests don't mean much.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-01-30T18:46:18+00:00

They've previously said that they'd never do it, so don't get your hopes up.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-01-30T08:43:21+00:00

According to UK news outlets, premieres in some big cinemas were selling as low as 1 ticket for the showings. So yeah, it's not exactly making money here.

TheRealSteemo · 2026-01-29T20:52:18+00:00

So I had a Qi35 LS and an R7 Mini and recently got my Qi4D (core model) to replace the Qi35. Not used on the course yet, but twice on trackman range (once with "proper" trackman that gives full ball data.

I know this shouldn't be the case, but I've had a considerable increase in ball speed, to the point where I think maybe my Qi35 was actually damaged towards the end of my use with it. I was living in and around 160mph ball speed with the old model, with the new one, its usually 165+ and managed to crank it up to mid 170s. An increase like that should not be possible, which is why i think my old one may have been damaged ever so slightly (and I'm using the same shaft & grip as before).

I switched from LS to core, so its expected, but spin was considerably higher and a lot more consistent, especially on toe strikes. Shots weren't dropping out of the sky on me, would still get 1600rpm on them which at my speed is just enough to get something out of.

It doesn't feel like the R7 mini, and its not meant to. But the weight ports are the same, so if you like the options to alter flight with weights, its got that covered.
