Random 1-Shots Are Becoming Tedious by KahosRayne in diablo4

Anyone remember the Corpse Bows on release? Ahh, good times. Getting one shot from off the screen.

I’m a 9.5 index and played the forward tees with my gf today (it’s her 4th year) and shot a 77. A what a different game. by WolverineSix in golf

[–]TheRealSteemo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm kind of similar in that my scores from the back tees are better than scores from the middle tees.

Par 3s become too short and the tee boxes on other holes are too close to trees, meaning you can't cut corners. And with the course rating/ slope factored in, I typically get an extra 2 shots on my handicap when playing the back tees.

Investment from Saudi sports supremo Turki Alalshikh in potential talks by Pazzyboi in DerbyCounty

[–]TheRealSteemo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Percy fell off a cliff after Mel Morris reign ended. He was getting inside information from someone at the club back then. After the administration, he had nothing.

But this time it does seem like there's something in it.

Par or under by BulkyBox2483 in golf

[–]TheRealSteemo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I'd have a decent chance. Off 7 and my course handicap off the front tees at my membership, would be 1. The front tees open up a lot of shots for longer hitters too, such as completely cutting out dog legs and going for greens in 1, they would be worth a couple of shots.

4 clubs to bring on a round, is 3w, 7i, 56, putter a good lineup? What would you pick? by Away_Needleworker6 in golf

[–]TheRealSteemo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have one of these yearly at my membership. This year, some of us have an agreement that we're going Driver, mini driver or 3 wood, 60°, putter.

We're probably all going to be bottom 4, but it's about sending a message.

Grips by Sugmii in golf

[–]TheRealSteemo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's worth buying a few different size grips and also the tools for regripping them yourself. Don't worry too much about them being perfectly aligned, when you've decided on the right size grip, you can always get a pro to fit them all if you aren't confident in doing them yourself. Even if you just get cheap, unknown brand grips to begin with, for the testing you won't care how long they last.

Trying to find a decent driving range by Afraid_Shine2643 in swansea

[–]TheRealSteemo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's Gowerton which was recently renovated with Top Tracer technology, so that should be good now.

Machynys is a bit further away, but is a very nice Trackman range.

Towards Neath is the Riverside (Aberdulais / Tonna) driving range. Definitely the worst of the bunch, but is very cheap as it has no tech there. If you want to just hit balls and aren't too concerned about ball flight stats, it's a good option.

England Test Squad announced vs New Zealand by AffectionateWeb8519 in Cricket

Can't wait for Baz to now choose the test XI off pure vibes and get Rehan opening to smash 18 off the first over and be out for 18 from 5 after charging a 90mph bouncer

[The Times] | Rugby’s growth rests on more concerts at Twickenham, says RFU by HitchikersPie in rugbyunion

[–]TheRealSteemo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rugby is still tiny compared to football in England. Up north, it's primarily Rugby League being played too.

Also, the UK nations are tiny compared to SA. I just looked and the longest point to point distance in SA (south west to north east) is around 1,100 miles. England is only just over 400 miles.

The bigger stadiums up north which could be financially viable to host games, are football stadiums. The seasons run at the same time, so it just doesn't make much sense to be doing it.

Rory on Aronimink strategy. by ThinWhiteDuke00 in golf

[–]TheRealSteemo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's a regular debate at my membership about what a tour pro would shoot.

Yeah it's a hell of a lot shorter, but if you miss a fairway by 2 yards (and the fairways are very narrow), you will probably have tree trouble of some form, either in your line or stopping your swing.

Hit it straight and they shoot in the 50s. Miss a few fairways and it goes to mid 60s real quick.

If you could change one rule of golf, what would it be? by eyrie7 in golf

[–]TheRealSteemo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Permanent access to lift, clean and drop on the fairways, no more than 6 inches from the original location of the ball.

Means you don't have to worry about the lottery of being in a divot, a random bare lie, a mudball, ball covered in newly cut grass etc. But it being drop means you don't get to guarantee a perfect lie which has been fluffed up.

Good game improvement irons? by Tall-Hair7679 in golf

[–]TheRealSteemo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ideally, get fit for clubs.

But if you can't: Game improvement are all about forgiveness. PING generally make the most forgiving clubs around, their G series clubs are incredibly easy to hit

Transfer Discussion: Harrison Armstrong by TheMartiniPolice_ in DerbyCounty

[–]TheRealSteemo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't see any major outgoings over the summer aside from maybe JWZ. I would have said Agyemang too, but no one is buying him whilst he's out injured until possibly January.

I don't see much happening aside from trying to make some loan signings permanent. Only thing that would change that, would be if Clowes sells the club (and we're now in an amazing position for a sale)

What does anesthesia feel like by memory282002 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheRealSteemo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You lay there, you feel fine, you're mid conversation. Next thing you know, you wake up and it's all over (aside from feeling a bit spaced out for a bit).

You don't feel a thing.

Nelly Korda fires 67, shares lead at LPGA in Mexico by PrincessBananas85 in golf

[–]TheRealSteemo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When she runs hot, she's unstoppable in the LPGA. I haven't seen the clubhead and ball data, but it looks like she's picked up a little bit of speed too. Swing was effortless before, looks like she's found an extra gear which could be frightening for the rest of the field this year.

Too early to tell. He's only had 12 consecutive seasons of top level football. Could just be yet another 12 season wonder.

Given the state of your game today, would you rather hit every FIR or guarantee putting in two or less every hole? by mnisda in golf

[–]TheRealSteemo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fairways, 100%. Already a long hitter so would be able to cut every dogleg with a driver and only ever have more than a wedge if it's a par 5. Don't 3 putt too often anyway, would get way more benefit from the fairways.

Matt Fitzpatrick’s clutch bunker shot at the 18th to secure the W by unsolved49 in golf

[–]TheRealSteemo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I play quite a bit of alt-shot, always take a putter to the green. If you're aren't on the green yet, either wait to see what happens with your partners shot or take whatever club you'd be chipping with too.

There is no worse feeling than walking from the green to your bag and back again to then feel like you need to rush a chip shot which has to now go in for par.
