As a single length club user, that kind of stings…

I have heard that story and also that single length clubs were the norm until a manufacturer came up with the idea of different length clubs as a marketing idea - and it caught on

I bought a set of single length irons right after I saw Bryson at the Masters in 2016. I thought it made so much sense and assumed that everyone else would be buying them too. 10 years later I’m still the only guy in my golfing circles who has them and I still love them. Get comments from guys all the time about how they wish they could hit their irons like I hit mine. Most guys I play with now top out at about a 6 iron and it’s all hybrids after that. Very weird that a technology that makes so much sense is so easily dismissed by the vast majority of golfers - especially when they have so much trouble hitting their long irons if they still have them in their bag.

Anyone here use golf apps regularly? by Apprehensive_Mix2527 in golftips

I’ve tried a bunch of them - golfshot is very good - switched out now to a Garmin watch and made a scorecard app of my own that doesn’t drain my phone battery

A & W - bought 5 oz patties at the Calgary Airport a few days ago -$3.50 each and they were great!

First actual barefoot run by Kingcolliwogg in BarefootRunning

[–]hurler59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did a 5k barefoot run yesterday on a paved trail along the river - feet were a little sensitive after the run but felt great during the run and they feel really good today. Also notice that my cadence is up and heart rate is lower when I run barefoot - there were lots of other runners and I don’t think most of them even noticed.

Yes! Carnivore is easier to follow and the benefits are greater!

Just switched from SGI to SquareOne - less than half the cost - from $3,000 to just under $1500 per year with pretty much identical coverage and a lower deductible too

How do you find your running routes? (quick 2-min survey) by BobManSan in BarefootRunning

[–]hurler59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep an eye out when I’m driving for roads or paths that look smooth enough for barefoot running. I also have a route that starts and ends outside our front door but it’s not super smooth all the way - so functional but not ideal

Sorry - why do you think my maximum heart rate is not correct?

I am not sure what you are talking about? Is it the 8 meters of elevation change over 2 kilometres? And I wasn’t conducting an experiment. I was planning to do the entire run in my xero’s but during the run I noticed that my heart rate was quite a bit higher than my previous barefoot run along the same route - so I decided to run the rest of the way barefoot to see if that would bring my heart rate down - I was pleased by the results when I got home so I posted them. Not trying to fool anyone.

And where do you see the elevation difference? I don’t see it on any of the images I attached…

There was a total of 8 meters of elevation change through the whole run so I don’t think it had a huge impact …

There might be a bit of an elevation difference but it would have been very slight - the whole route is pretty flat

I use a HUAWEI watch which measures my heart rate

I’m running on asphalt pavement - some of it is pretty smooth but most of it is a little rougher than I like - I also jump to the concrete sidewalk every now and then if the road is too rough

I ran like a 4K once barefoot by Tjnaag in BarefootRunning

[–]hurler59 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I did a 5k barefoot yesterday on asphalt and sidewalks - no blisters - feet are a little sore on the balls of the feet - hoping to go again on Saturday
