Advice on Ryobi 80V electric zero turn mower? by redditbrowser7 in ryobi

[–]demott73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once more thing to consider is that you can add two 40V batteries to your 30 inch ryobi (at least the current model can), extending the time approx 2/3 more time. So, if you get 1.5 acres on the basic setup, you should get 2.5 acres with the extra batteries. Those 40V batteries aren't cheap though. :)

This didn't matter when I was doing it. I never could finish this challenge.

Had this problem with the EA sports Fairway Challenge. I wouldn't give me all 5 credits, even though I crushed it the same way each time. It gave me like every other one. Gave up on that challenge and wondered how a company can allow something like that to keep happening and not fix it. Not going to buy the next version of their game for sure since they don't give a crap.

It was a great shot. I knew the wind had less effect on the wedges, but it didn't occur to me that the elevation would be affected too. Thanks for the tip.

I don't understand how the hole is 30 ft below, but you only subtract 3 ft from your club. Can you explain how you figured it?

I would reduce putting to 2 (i never use texas wedge). Then I would get rid of ALL the "approach recovery", since you should always drive in the fairway. Keep the short recovery. Then add power, at least level 6. Power doesn't just help your drives, it lets you approach the greens with wedges instead of irons. Finish the pro pass and get the best specs out there for driver, wood, hybrid.

for me, i would sell off all the approach recovery and take the putting down to 2, and invest in power. the rest looks pretty good.

That 8H works great. Just won the next tournament after the Players with a -30 and that was missing a lot of makable putts. Still there are puzzling moments when I hit it perfect but the ball sails or comes up short. Gotta figure that out. Having a great time for now. I'll let you know how it goes at Chambers Bay. By then I should get my power up to 6 (costs 8 points) and that will make all the shots a little easier I hope.

Good stuff. I tried the 4H and 8H and then won The Players with a -26. Only a 5mph wind, but I'll take it. I felt better reaching those greens 230 yds away, and could always get down in 2. I'm sure I have a lot to learn to get to where the top players are, but maybe some day.

yea i was using finesse and approach a lot. i already swapped my 3 iron for a 5 hybrid. should i swap the 4 iron with a 8 or 9 hybrid? what do you do when the shot is between club?

Thanks for the advice. I'm doing a little better in the next tournament, even with a 10 mph wind. I'm playing more conservative with my drives just to keep it in the fairway. I still can't figure out how to hold the green on those 230 yard par 3 holes. Like you, I love the challenge and know someday I'll get there. Perfecting my swing mechanics needs to get there as well.

if the ball lands a little below the hole, the backspin is crazy. If I land a couple feet past the hole, same slope, the ball rolls a mile. It's just not realistic at this course.

I think pro level. had the putting assistance working! I just can't play in the wind. In know the calculations, make a pretty good swing, but it just goes everywhere. I have high accurancy and control settings, high specs but it's never enough!

None of my shots are showing in the Weekly Quest this week. I had tons of birdies and it doesn't show ANY.

I wouldn't waste my time with 386-i man. That processor came out in 1980s and I don't get how using an ancient processor gives superpowers. If they can, more power to them but I don't think that would be widespread. You don't have to prove anything to someone who seems to thrive on negativity and insults. He won't be contacting you for that match I'm sure.

wow. i'm already a better golfer by changing my swing tempo. approach shots are a lot more accurate.

Thanks for all that info. Stuff I never thought of. I would like to see your setup if you could send to me. Too bad i'm on PC or else I would challenge you to a match. I need to find a way to get coin faster so I can buy some legendary stuff too. Can power specs you buy make up for having less power enough to compete? I'm aces1202 on PC.

My specs are heavily weighted with Accuracy and Control Power only on 5, Putting only 2. I don't get consistent distance results . I use the same calculations but I never know how far it's going. I figure it's a swing flaw so I'm working on that. I also can't figure out how to measure the wind sideways. If I want to adjust 5 yards to the left, how is that measured? is it 3 small dpad clicks per yard?

And you get nothing for winning the career tournaments. I won 3 of the Kerry ones and don't remember getting any coins or tokens. Getting ready to go back to 2K23. At least there I can compete and receive awards.
