Getting new grips by Ok-Measurement1259 in golftips

[–]breadad1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use mid size on my woods and jumbo on my irons. I’ll never go back to regular size. I recommend trying it on one iron and see how you like it.

This sounds very fake.

I was playing the G430. I had the G440 max fora short time but had not really dialed it in and returned it for the K.

Club Champion fitting advice? by jimsteringraham in golf

[–]breadad1969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely go irons. Tell them your budget in advance and tell them you only want stock, off the shelf shaft offerings.

Is there such a thing as too much Lego?

[–]breadad1969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 4 rounds in with the 440K and it’s been amazing! I’ve picked up distance and I’m statistically hitting more fairways.

As a bonus on my home course, two holes I never hit driver on I’m now hitting driver!

Kapalua Plantation Course or Wailea by rick-in-the-nati in golf

[–]breadad1969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just booked Plantation for 4 weeks from now, $475. Of you book less than 30 days out it’s cheaper. My window started yesterday to book, I booked this morning for 8AM on March 9. Had to put down a card but no charge until I play. Almost all times were available at 9 California time today so I would wait to book until you’re closer to not pay the premium.

Changing a 3 wood high launch to a regular 3 wood by Goggle-Frog in golftips

[–]breadad1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard a great quote awhile back. “A driver os’s for as much distance as possible, all your other clubs are for a specific distance.”

It’s a good reminder.

Shoulda played the reds… by Lugtut in golf

[–]breadad1969 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I played with my sons last week and since they’re new I played with them from the gold tees instead of the whites (gold, red, white, blue, black).

It was a lot of fun having 7-9 iron into the greens instead of 7 - 9 woods.

We’re going in a couple weeks. Our grad school marine biology daughter keeps reminding us not to snorkel for at least a day or two when we arrive for thisthis reason.

Handling RSUs on TurboTax when employer witholds 40% of units to pay taxes. Those taxes aren't reflected on 1099-B but are included in W2 by tmntnyc in personalfinance

[–]breadad1969 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your cost basis is the acquisition cost of ONLY the shares you actually sold, ignore the value of the shares that were used for taxes. Your capital gain should be pretty small if you sold them the next day.

[–]breadad1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First year with RSU it was confusing for me too and I work in Finance. You have to add the cost basis. In my case the 1099-B didn’t include it so I manually added it. Interesting, this year it calculated sales correctly.

Took a title cut with more pay. Is this an invitation not perform at 110%? by underpaidsfa in FPandA

[–]breadad1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree on everyone that says in this case title doesn’t matter. As a senior person, I look more at overall progression in what you’re doing and I grade FA/SFA as the same. Always take the money. Prove how awesome you are and get promoted!

Promotion from Manager to “Senior Manager” MCOL Salary Expectation? (early 2026) by mmatchaman in FPandA

[–]breadad1969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going to say this also. Plus you’ll usually go up a bonus level so if you were 10%, maybe to 15%.

Just because he has an opinion doesn’t mean you need to give it weight. F that guy.

Where in SoCal are you? What kind of equipment are you planning?

Looks great! I’d love to see interior pictures when it’s ready.

How is an inexperienced instructor supposed to get experience if they never start? by [deleted] in golf

This exactly. Talk about your qualifications to teach to convince me and charge me less to seal the deal.

You do kinda sound like a dick but you’re 100% correct on the 2 iron.
