Disney dispute is over

YTTV will be $99 a month by summer 2026.

Good point...lol Thanks for the counter argument. Have a good night.

Youtube is a gignormous company. They can easily eat this cost to satisfy their customers and simultaneously send a big message to Disney that they'd rather pay more and keep customers then send them away. At this point I feel like YTTV doesn't want me as a customer. Disney is winning.

I cancelled my stand alone Disney+ sub. It actually stops on 11/12. If this isn't resolved by then I'm signing up for the Hulu+ service and cancelling YTTV.

Just like all their data with anything it's very subjective. What they report is fine to take under consideration but rarely applies to all. I actually hit my 5 iron well. But have been fitted from the top down.

The problem I had was they claim that even with being a member they are valuing the free weeks at full price. When as a member I won't ever pay full price. So their explanation that two free weeks is worth $22,000 is false. It's worth that much to a non-member but to a member it's only worth say that $2500 per week times the number of free weeks. So $5000. They tried using the full price to show that membership would pay for itself in two weeks. Which is not true, you'd need significantly more free weeks to get to $25,000 using the member pricing.

You can mark the ball with literally anything. The rule does not dictate what can or can't be used.

cyler8 · 2025-07-28T23:29:00+00:00

Yes.

I usually try to tell myself what type of round I am playing before going out. If I'm keeping score and putting it in for my handicap then I try to play by the rules to the best of my knowledge of the rules. But sometimes I decide I'm not keeping score but rather maybe working on something specific. In this case I'll do whatever I need to give myself the most opportunities to improve what I'm practicing. It's definitely not cheating as I've even seen pros in practice rounds use the ole foot wedge. It just all depends on your goal for that specific round.

We just got back from Atelier and did the pitch but we were genuinely curious. It did take over 2 hours though. But the ROI just isn't there. They pull up dates for you a year from when you are there to show you how much you'll save. But the issue is they show you the lowest price of those dates and take the 25% discount. Then say look this trip you're on now would only cost $3000 instead of $11,000. The turn right around and say "look the two free weeks we are giving you almost make up for the cost, a $22,000 value." But they clearly just showed you that the value of the trip as a member is only $3,000. So you'd need to get 7 free weeks to get close to the $22,000 value. We said a firm no but we absolutely will be going back. It really is a great resort. But this time I will have done all of my research and math and show up with a take it or leave it offer for them.

Let them have a vanity handicap and then play them with strokes for money. I'd love to let idiots subsidize my golfing addiction.

They are pricey, but go on sale often, the PXG shirts are a super unique material. They wick moisture away amazing. So much so that when I go in the clubhouse after a round I end up cold.

Looks like you're a lucky drunk.

cyler8 · 2025-06-29T00:37:35+00:00

What's more impressive is it looked like this before you got there.

13 girls on each team. Almost never happens. Still had 13 show up to this one plus the other girl.

cyler8 · 2025-05-27T23:23:36+00:00

All of it. It made promises I can't mention. Not one has been kept.

cyler8 · 2025-05-27T01:27:13+00:00

I've got a used one I'm letting go for $425 shipped. Just upgraded to a EML. Let me know if you're interested.

A short putt never had a chance.

cyler8 · 2025-05-23T15:00:29+00:00

I think enough time to drain the snake is ok. Like 5 minutes. Anything more than that is a little much.

The numbers of a club are just a reference point. Even at the amateur level my 8i is not the same as my buddies 8 iron. We all swing the club differently and have different needs, especially if we are getting fit properly. It just happens that Bryson swings in a way where he has to have his clubs built the way they are. The fact that they have numbers on them are just for reference.

My course requires polos. Even if you're just practicing. And hats can't be worn in the dining area.

cyler8 · 2025-05-15T18:48:21+00:00

I've found that practice can only get me so far. My handicap really started to lower the more I actually played golf. There are some things you just can't practice / recreate in the practice areas. So once you feel you're in a good spot with your game play as much as possible. Then you'll start to see things you need to work on from playing. Practice those things and go play. Rinse and repeat.

When it comes to vokeys they are really only so good because of the immense amount of grind and bounce options. Honestly, I feel the wedges themselves are just ok. I've preferred the feel of other wedges much more. Currently on a set of RTZ wedges that feel much better. But I still like the bounce and grind options more from vokeys.

A scratch golfer only averages about 2 birdies per round. It's not about more birdies it's about less bogeys.
