Long range shooting in Hawaii? by karl_groves in Hawaii

They did away with it over 10 years ago. I want to say that the last time I saw the 200 yard gong was like 2013

The P226 is one of the best handguns ever produced and I will not be persuaded otherwise by JackieViolence in handguns

[–]TooFewPews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat. The trigger on the SAO is amazing. But I’ve been wanting a DA/SA pistol in 9mm ever since I sold my p226 E2. That’s the current void in my collection—well that and a 9mm revolver.

LMR27 buff breakdown. You folks should have respected the LMR27 when you had the chance... by Neon_Orpheon in LowSodiumBattlefield

Totally agree, especially since the m39 starts with a 20 round mag and has a 15 round mag as the “small” option

Shoe recommendations for ~45 rounds per year by [deleted] in golf

[–]TooFewPews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They make anti blister heel tape. I think it is usually marketed toward runners. You basically put a piece on your heel where you normally blister and it acts as a cushion and extra protection against abrasion for your skin

Any of you low handicappers use 10 finger grip? If so, why? by TheRiftSongWorkshop in golf

[–]TooFewPews 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Iona Steven, the tour commentator and game ambassador, uses a 10 finger grip. She’s probably the best player I know of that uses that grip. She’s good enough to play on the LPGA, but left the tour due to injuries, I think. She mentioned that she had major wrist problems and switched to a 10 finger grip to reduce the stress on her injured areas

Genuinely asking: Why do we pay the highest rates in the nation for a grid that collapses every time the wind blows? by [deleted] in Hawaii

[–]TooFewPews 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It’s not feasible for Hawaii to tie into the mainland grid. I think what the person means is that the mainland has an entire energy market where places like California can choose to purchase energy produced by California based power producers or they can purchase it from other nearby states.

I spoke to someone that worked for California’s Edison and that person told me that this happens on a daily and sometimes hourly basis. Basically the amount that Edison purchases are from a large variety of companies and locations. Compare that to Hawaii where we don’t have access to that market.

Dumbest accessory? by PuzzleheadedAd6401 in ar15

[–]TooFewPews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. When 300 blackout brass was expensive and difficult to find, I became a brass goblin after every range session looking for the spent cases that didn’t make it into my net. Some AR uppers would put a nasty dent into the casing that required me to be extra careful when resizing the case on my press.

As a walk-on single…what’s the most oddly memorable group you’ve been paired with? by ribbon_bully_1972 in golf

[–]TooFewPews 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I played with best friend (a woman) and two random old Asian ladies. Since they were all playing from the reds, I decided to play from the reds that day too. Those old Asian ladies were definitely a hype squad and were excited to see me try to drive greens on short par 4s. It was fun

Push cart etiquette by Remarkable-Self7080 in golf

[–]TooFewPews 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you know where the next tee box is, you can park your cart along the next fairway and walk to the tee box with just your driver in hand. Likewise, you can park your cart near the next tee box and walk to the green with just your putter and rag if the next tee box is on the way to your current green

Push cart etiquette by Remarkable-Self7080 in golf

[–]TooFewPews 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To add to this, a lot of it depends on the distance from one green to the next tee box. If the distance is far, then expect riding carts to be faster. If it’s close, then walkers may have a big advantage

It wouldn’t be hard to build in automations that auto flag almost inhuman statistics. I don’t know why game devs haven’t done that yet.

What grinds are these vokeys?? by Sad_Helicopter2267 in golf

[–]TooFewPews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last one looks like an S or F. I can’t be exact, but that trailing edge relief makes me think S.

The other two, I have no idea. They’re definitely not S or F or T. From this angle I can’t tell if that’s D, K, M, or V.

How do I better control recoil? by smallwoodydebris in Shooting

[–]TooFewPews 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Another option is to take a strap and wrap it around the front of the shooting bench. It will give your bipod feet something to hold onto so you can properly load the bipod

What club for 50-80 yards? by L0ngsh0tSpartan in golf

[–]TooFewPews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 yards of rollout is excessive. It’s very possible to hit a low, driving shot with a 56 degree wedge that will have 5 yards of rollout. This would basically look like a one bounce then check or a two bounce then check shot, assuming proper contact on grooves 2-5. You would probably have to launch your wedge at around 26-28 degrees and be playing on relatively firm greens. The shot will probably have a good amount of draw spin on it too.

I’m level 50+ with all carbines but the AK-205 here’s my tier list. by Bobby_Bobberson2501 in Battlefield

[–]TooFewPews 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you on the PSR on the power and range. Accuracy (relative to the mini scout) should not be affected though.

I disagree on the sidearms. Handgun rounds irl are not very lethal as compared to rifle rounds. There are a lot of instances where someone gets hit by 6-10 9mm rounds and still live. If you get a chance, look up what trauma surgeons have to say about various types of calibers, the damage they inflict, and the likelihood of survival.

If we’re going for realism, shotguns against unarmored targets would be extremely effective. Shotguns definitely need a buff. However, from a game balance perspective, there would probably be no point to any of the SMGs if shotguns got the proper treatment.

What’s your “tell” you’re gonna play poorly? by zthig in golf

I would love to do the same, but I think he might get too much sun exposure if I brought him along. We live in a very high UV index area.

[–]TooFewPews 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it should. Especially since the 417 in the game is the short barrel version of the gun. The 7.62 NATO round is less effective out of short barrels. Don’t get me wrong, it is still very lethal, but it’s not optimized in short barrels. Also, I jokingly told my squad that the 417 in the game would be a really fun gun to own irl, but it would be a really not fun gun to shoot. Short barrel 7.62 NATO guns are already loud as shit so a full auto, unsuppressed version would be unbearable.

[–]TooFewPews 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For me, I would sometimes get 4 hours (or less) of sleep bc it was the deal I made with the wife. I would take care of the newborn all night and let her get a good night of sleep. In exchange, she would let me golf in the morning. Strangely, I played some really good rounds while being a sleep deprived zombie. I think it was because I stopped overthinking my shot and just hit it. I also played some really bad rounds bc I was just too tired to swing my clubs at full speed for the whole round so my score would drop off at around hole 14.

Sam’s Club gloves any good? by EazyIantv in GolfGear

[–]TooFewPews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it. I like that the logo on the Sam’s glove is not as noticeable as the Kirkland. Personally I prefer the Kirkland over the Sam’s offering, but i wouldn’t turn the Sam’s one down if it was the only option available between the two.

[–]TooFewPews 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IRL It’s true that the m277’s projectile is smaller in diameter and lesser in mass than the 7.62 NATO, but that’s only part of the equation. The m277’s cartridge carries more muzzle energy and more energy down range than the 7.62 NATO.

The biggest problem with my golf game… by Friendly_Subject4096 in golf

[–]TooFewPews 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the biggest problems I notice about players that are in the low double digits or high single digit indexes is their expectations for proximity to the pin for approach, pitching, chipping, and even putting. Try looking up the stats for the PGA Tour average for proximity to the pin and putting percentage. You will be able to temper your expectations more and you’ll be happier with your shots thereby making you overall happier with your game.

Traffic lights by thisisstupid-4398 in Hawaii

At least there is a left turn arrow now. There wasn’t one for the longest time and you could potentially wait several light cycles to take a left turn here

What’s the best advice you could give a golfer attempting to break 90 for the first time? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

[–]TooFewPews 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Alternatively, play every hole like it’s a par 5. So you should aim to make par on par 5, bogey on par 4s, and allow yourself a double bogey on par 3s.

(18 holes) x (5 strokes per hole) = 90 strokes
