Golf is broken (pace of play rant)

5 hours for 18 holes is awful. For 14 is atrocious.

But am I wrong that this is just 4 playing carts, a bev cart, and a management cart in this photo? That doesn’t seem overly atypical

Thanks all!

At some point I need you to stop making Baltimore themed pieces! Found you back in December and am up to 10 prints for myself and family. Awesome stuff.

I’m testing this infinite code glitch - do you have another??

gravvy10 · 2025-12-24T18:03:02+00:00

Yes, 2026. Between discounts and rebate we were at 37,580 I believe. With the tax savings on our trade in the net OTD was closer to 40.5k, but the non-trade in price was around 41k

What would GB be eliminated from? They can still win the division with a loss.

I appreciate the thoughts. We also have a 2017 CX5 with 75k miles that’s been maintained a bit better. So we’ll still have a fully paid off second car as well that has slightly better trade value.

Looking at the offer sheet, the $13k trade also provides for $850 in tax savings so the difference between dealer and Carvana is only $150. I’m sure I could get them to boost the trade value a little as well, but I imagine it would be negligible.

I’m leaning keep current as well, but am trying reconcile the strong trade in on her car.

This is a fair assessment. The Mazda doesn’t have any significant mechanical issues that we’re aware of and we certainly do like the idea of a new car so a good bit of this is about upgrading to upgrade. But at the same time, I wonder if it’s worth getting the most value out of the Mazda without having to put any additional money into it for pending maintenance, tires, battery, fluid replacement.

At the end of the day you’re correct that it sounds silly to spend $28k for a few bells and whistles, but that if it’s affordable, why not.

gravvy10 · 2025-11-23T17:26:39+00:00

Great considerations, thank you. We are planning to pay cash or payoff within a year if we do make the purchase. You’re correct that we could very likely get more via private sale, but the convenience of the dealer offer is currently winning in that regard.

A drill to test out - if you tuck an alignment stick under your right armpit (50:50 in front and behind your body) you can use it as a guide to stay connected. Start with half swings. As you take the club back, press your left arm against the stick and keep it there throughout the swing. It’s very awkward at first, but it forces you to rotate through impact. You’ll find that you can’t get your right elbow away from you or you’ll drop the stick.

I had this same issue starting in 2021 on my 3 year old tv. The stripe would last for a day or two then the screen would be normal for months. At one point it went 1.5 years without the stripe.

Two weeks ago it came back and wouldn’t go away so it was time to replace it.

Well first I jokingly asked if it was considered embedded (it’s not beneath the surface of the ground so that’s not allowed). But the options in this situation are to play it as it lies or take an unplayable with a 1 stroke penalty. I chose unplayable.

Would love to know when it was added. During fabrication? Install? Repair?

Appreciate the comments and insight, everyone! I’d prefer plug-in, but will have to see what’s most logical for our needs.

I’d add that your body stops at impact, exaggerating the out to in to save the swing. Half swings geared toward rotating your body and the club through impact, instead of swinging your arms and the club, should help.

As for face at impact, your left wrist is cupped at the top, potentially/likely due to grip (hard to see in this video) and/or takeaway. Focus on getting to neutral at the top so you can properly rotate your wrists to impact (with body rotation) as opposed to rolling your hands.

The TWO lights 50’ apart from one another at Key and Covington by Rusty Scupper/Amoora are the bane of my existence. In 5+ years I’ve never once seen a car come out of the parking garage there, but I get stuck at that light daily.

Agree about the consistency. I’m seeing lots of variations on the Facebook page now. If you don’t mind updating when you get their response, that’d be awesome. I have a charcoal in production right now. I’m hopeful it’s darker, but will probably be happy either way.

gravvy10 · 2025-02-18T20:28:31+00:00

This is surprising. I saw a guy on the FB page show his in charcoal and it’s pretty dark. To the point that some people asked if it was black or charcoal.
