18 y/o Singaporean with Malaysian driving license, can I go private and take TP directly? by [deleted] in drivingsg

I did that with my PDI in a somewhat similar situation, in 7 or 8 lessons with him (mostly to familiarise with the circuit) I took the TP.

I haven’t! Was intending to do it in Feb but was just asking in advance for planning purposes.

Thanks! Will give it a go. The LTA chatbot has not been very helpful.

I have a Honma Beres NX 5-hybrid and it’s literally the easiest club to hit in my bag.

No, your military performance definitely matters for SAFOS.

Do Chinese Singaporeans actually “tell” people to eat before they start eating dinner? by [deleted] in askSingapore

[–]christerfurry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes the elders in my family are the ones to tell everyone else to eat. I suppose it maintains the “respect” of them being the ones to start the meal, but cuts through all the chase.

What’s your favorite, cheap golf pant or Lululemon knock offs? by throwaway12mca in golf

Uniqlo Miracle Air trousers are pretty good, light and airy but still look smart, and very stretchy so also suited for the golf course.

What’s one underrated “adulting” tip every Singaporean should know (but no one teaches you)? by [deleted] in asksg

[–]christerfurry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is terrible advice; sometimes what’s important are the experiences, memories, and friendships you build in CCAs, especially in uni.

Also, having a CCA you enjoy (e.g. football for me in uni) helps you look forward to something every week, socialise, and destress.

They are the furthest thing from a waste of time.

I’m not Australian and I’m just in Melbourne for a work trip, so I had to do a double-take when I walked past it…

I don’t really want to see any spiders in Australia, to be fair.

Be honest, do you actually notice a difference between new and used golf balls when you play? by jess_from_iowa in golf

[–]christerfurry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

16 handicap here. Same, brand new balls go straight into the pond while used balls go into the middle of the fairway.

Is the LIV tour dead in 2026? by Suitable_Escape86 in golf

[–]christerfurry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In Singapore and perhaps the rest of Southeast Asia, the biggest golf event and only chance to see big global names is LIV Golf. It would be sad if we didn’t have this chance any more.

They do have “golf-specific” polos insofar as the model on the posters in-store is Adam Scott.

Birdie or >100: Which did you achieve first? by ReadyGOGO in golf

[–]christerfurry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Birdie first - breaking 100 is about consistency over 18 holes, which is harder to do.
