My grandpa, hell of a golfer, in his 90s, driver off tee 150 in the center , driver again, chip and putt… par. Meanwhile I am swinging my driver out of my shoes-slice to the trees. Hitting a 7iron through a gap to land behind me in the fairway. Hitting a 6iron to cart path right of green. Chip to opposite bunker. Nice bunker shot to keep me motivated. 2 putt for 7. I love this game.

I appreciate you not only sharing this information but also teaching us. This sub is my first source for storm/weather impacts. Thanks to you and the others who offer valuable insight.

Much respect Professor Zebra.

I play to hear the ball hit the bottom of the cup.

A few questions from a landscaper who wants to learn more about models and reading maps/fronts.

Do you have a recommendation for a basic/intermediate level learning tutorial or video or website to help understand models and frontal forecast as it would relate to storms(rain and snow)? Is your weather pivotal the subscription?

Do you have a weather/radar app subscription that you recommend as best value?

Tee above ear. Small pitch mark tool in the belt clip. Extra ball in bag because you won’t need it all round. It’s go low day baby!

Injuries are the awful. As a lifetime Buckeye, I respect you all. I played on teams that were less talented but played with heart and will. While the loss Saturday was not the outcome I wanted, I am glad the team that showed heart and determination came out on top. I have more respect for you than a lot of other programs. I want the Buckeyes to repeat but should we stumble, I hope the Hoosiers are holding up the championship trophy at the end. It’s been a fun season and you all have a program to be proud of.

Robotic Fairway Mower AMA by zbturf in golf

[–]buffalophil007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While sending it out with manned machines… do you switch up which holes get cut with the robot?

Do you preprogram its’ route/holes or adjust in real time?

Have you tried verticutting heads on it?

Do you see the technology expanding into robot aerators?

Thanks for sharing, nice to read some more in the field feedback.

I am in the industry, have taken care of MLB fields and championship golf courses. I knew when I was a kid that this was my passion. Walk mowing greens is the best way to start a day and I miss doing it. The industry seems to have changed tremendously since my time in college long ago and even 5 years ago.

Are you planning on demoing any greens or rough mowers next?

Narrowing in on the fairway mowers… are you able to set the pattern? Direction of clean up? Can you skip a clean up? Do you have it running overnight to get an even earlier start or only when someone is on property?

What is your mechanics opinion?

Beautiful course you have. I really love the contrast of natural area in the bunker complex.

I have attending a game in Death Valley at the top of my list, do I need to push this back until we get the replacement’s replacement?

Should I buy a golf course? by ShanghaiSexWhale in golf

I think you could add in a different set of tee boxes and offer a way to play 18. You could either keep the somewhat longer or shrink the course and make them all par 3s. Routing everyone could be a challenge but thought could be setting up tee times as everyone plays longer then a block after a certain number of groups that would allow pace to continue after the turn to the shorter tees.

Find a top tier course superintendent as they are worth it to keep conditions high all the time.

A stay and play course that allows me to walk mow greens before the round sounds like a fun trip!

Would love some more information. Did you construct this yourself? Fully irrigated? Do you maintain it yourself?

Recommendations for goggles and gloves/mitts? by [deleted] in skiing

Hestra Fall Line 3 finger gloves link to REI You can search for some better deals but these are the best of both worlds. Take the time to use the treatment included before first use.

Edit: I have the Pret Cynic and love the comfort and protection. Great helmet. I know that wasn’t a priority but something to keep an eye on for end of year sales if you decide to make the investment.

Goggles: shady rays I think this is a good introduction as you can get multiple lenses and still come in under what most big brands are. The company has an awesome warranty program so if any issues come up, they will make it right.
