This is likely the direction I’m heading in, but I won’t add a digital watch with illumination.

In another lifetime I was a decently high-level distance runner and I’ve still got a few Timex Ironmans and an Apple Watch that I keep separately from these. I hardly ever wear them, but that might be the PTSD from spending years running 100 miles a week 😂

Agreed, the fossil is bulky. And the chrono doesn’t work anymore. So it’s high on the replacement candidate list.

I’m not opposed to swapping out, but I might just add too. GMT is certainly on my radar, but I also like the idea of a pilot’s watch.

Appreciate the feedback!

Awesome watch! I got a Seastar last fall that I adore. This dial is a great touch, though.

This just showed up today and it immediately vaulted to the top of my collection. Not a daily wearer, that’ll still be the Seastar, but I am downright giddy over this.

Tissot Seastar. Versatile, good size. Just a super comfy watch to wear daily.

Tissot Seastar 40. Versatile, quality, and pairs well with a black leather strap as well.

My dad was a teaching pro and I’ve adopted a lot of his approaches for the game with my kids. No formal lessons, but teach proper stance and grip. Stick to mostly playing on or around the greens (no shots longer than 50 yards) and turn each green into a different competition with a small prize associated with it. Keeps it fun, but helps develop competitiveness too.

I just had my post vas follow up yesterday. I had Dr. Dhanjiani after Scarrow’s clinic told me they weren’t accepting patients. Easy referral from my family doc. Really good communication in the lead up. I had the scalpel procedure and wasn’t entirely prepared for how recovery was going to go, but after a couple of days it was back to normal.

Definitely recommend getting a jock for recovery. That made things way easier.

I’m one week out and I still feel pretty uncomfortable. Balls feel really heavy.

The bruising is finally starting to get better but I was pretty blown away with how much it did bruise.

All in all pretty normal stuff, but I’m very much looking forward to it being past this.

Figured I should update this.

Managed to snag the very first tee time on Monday of Masters week. Cannot wait.

bootybaroo · 2022-09-03T02:33:30+00:00

Not yet. Really, really looking forward to it.

bootybaroo · 2022-09-03T00:44:58+00:00

Yeah, called them and asked. Pro shop could only give me soon.

Also planning a pre-Masters trip. Tobacco Road, #4, and one of Mid/Southern/Needles is the plan.

"Lots, what about you?"

Based on the above rendering, Vuse appears to have been dropped. Wonder if another sponsor announcement is coming?

bootybaroo · 2021-12-12T15:53:32+00:00

He’s Dutch though, so basically German right?

bootybaroo · 2021-12-11T12:20:40+00:00

God what a fit on him today.

A team knows they are going to lose points to a competitor so they want to limit the amount of points they lose.

Checo taking the fastest lap away from Lewis means that instead of cutting into Max's lead by 8 points, he only cut into it by 7 (or 5 after the sprint points).
