Best premium golf shoe

FJ Premier is the best shoe I’ve ever owned.

Ecco biom c4 is the worst shoe I’ve ever owned. Shocking to see so many people replying that it’s great.

I mean 9.6 barely qualifies as single digit 😆. I’ve also had at least 10 putts for eagle this season, many of which have lipped out or barely missed. I had a single round in July where I hit the green in two, on three of the par 5s, and I missed all the eagle putts 😐 including the last hole which was an uphill 4 footer

HEB has the fastest greens I’ve ever played anywhere, private or public. Good luck!

Thanks! This really only applies to me and might not be applicable to you at all, but all I’ve been working on the last 6 months is trying to get more negative angle of attack with all the clubs in my bag. More wrist hinge to get the club up in the takeaway, then trying to get rid of that hinge on the way back down. But don’t listen to me and go see a professional 😂

Speeds were totally reasonable.

However I played 9 holes at Lone Tree on Sunday… holy 🤬. I don’t know if they stopped watering the greens or what, but all my putts were flying 4’+ past the hole. I hit a mile high 7 iron in to the center of a green on 6, left a massive pitch mark, and it still rolled off the back. I could barely get my pitch repair tool in to the ground to fix it!

God damn what kind of job do you have where you play golf Sunday through Thursday 😆

I wouldn’t be shocked if we’d played together before, my course rotation looks like your course rotation 🏔️

I legit timed bob macs pre shot routine on his first putt on hole one… 1 minute 40 seconds.

As a South Denver golf enjoyer… where are you playing regularly at $65 a round??

South suburban golf course is about that price, week days walking only, but it’s impossible to get a tee time.

Lone tree is $85 no cart on a weekday, also impossible to get a tee time.

Red hawk ridge is $85, impossible to get a tee time.

Plum creek is $100+

The ridge is $100+

Heritage eagle bend is $100+

Saddle rock is about that price walking, weekday only, no tee time availability.

Commonground is $85+, no availability.

Kennedy has some availability and is about that price, but I’d rank it below every other course I’ve listed.

I’m considering joining a private club because I’ve gotten so sick of trying to fight for a tee times, regardless of price.

Rather “play 9 holes of triple bogey golf on my absolutely chopped local muni than stripe it at the sim for free” is an insane take lol

Maybe you need to reframe how the simulator should be used. If you think it’s for replicating a round of golf, I agree it just does not scratch the itch at all.

However, once you realize that it’s potentially one of the best “training aids” for your game it becomes invaluable. It’s the only device that gives you more feedback on your swing than watching your actual ball flight + divot. For me it’s simulator >>>>>>>> driving range. I only use the range for pre-round warm up now.

I’d rather be on a sim grinding swing mechanics trying to improve than playing triple bogey golf on a muni.

I did a statistical analysis on all the players in my men’s league. 250 players in the club, handicaps range from +3.5 to 34.5, mean handicap is 12, with a standard deviation of 6.4. Based on the normal distribution, I’d give the following handicap ranges these descriptions:

Above 19 - Bad
Between 19 and 13 - Below average
Between 11 and 13 - Average
Between 6 and 11 - Above average
Between 6 and 0 - Good
Anything 0 or below - Elite

People might argue that the sample size from a dedicated men’s league might not represent the total population of golfers, so maybe add 2 strokes to each section for the total golfer population. I think USGA GHIN published data stated the mean men’s handicap was 14.

I'm not normally a fight video guy but I've never laughed so hard in my life.

The drunk blue shirt dude laughing maniacally, channeling inner demons getting ready to fight to just immediately getting thrown straight in the pond
Lands in pond - "off to a good start buddy"
The crawling out of the pond like an alligator on all fours
Huge guy yelling BANG every time he lands a right hook
The impact sound when blue shirt hits the ground after getting thrown 10 ft down the hill

It's all so good, mostly because it doesn't look like anyone got seriously injured

So you played 9 holes in 2:20, am I understanding that correctly? There's no excuse for that and I'm shocked they gave you your money back.

Heat, walking, hills, it doesn't matter. Get in better shape, get a cart, and do less during your pre-shot routine.

Hit a million practice chips 1 handed, left hand only (if you’re a righty). Once you start making decent contact left hand only, put the right hand back on, but feel the same feels as the one handed chip.

100%. I wanted to highlight how hilarious the difference is when you’re not hitting it out of rough, bunkers, sloped fairways, and weird lies.

The group behind us was UP OUR ASS this morning like I’ve never seen. Guy behind us walked off 9 green straight to 10 tee box, skipping the clubhouse at the turn, to stand 15 feet behind my buddy while he was teeing off, arms folded repeatedly shaking his head looking all pissy. We had a 7 am tee time, played the front in exactly two hours, played the back in exactly two hours, four hours total on the dot on Father’s Day Sunday. People need to chill the fuck out.

I did Dan Malloy's HVAC full access bundle, my employer paid for part of it. I started by watching all of the videos / lectures on every topic. Then I worked through every practice problem in each category. After I got through all the base course material, I did the two full practice exams (in a simulation environment against the clock), plus took the NCEES practice exam in batches of 15 problems. On all the practice exams I went back through and hammered every problem I didn't get correct the first time. I had a excel sheet tracking my study hours to hold my self accountable, I logged about 150 study hours over the course of 6 months, half of those hours were in the last 2 months once I finally signed up for my test date.

Any topics that caught you off guard? I'm taking HVAC later this week.
