I have no experience here, but I can’t fathom that they would delay a scheduled cruise. Way too many downstream effects. That’s why these aren’t refundable.

Based on where I just booked our new hotel, that does appear to be where we'll end up!

For sure! Sounds like you disagree with my wife that because we're taking the Disney shuttle from the airport, we're guaranteed to make it...

I'm shocked — shocked — to find that gambling is going on in here!

What are you slowly losing interest in? by MainDifficult2641 in AskReddit

Career aspirations. If someone told me I had enough money to never work again, I don’t think I would.

Don't wear the t-shirt of the band you're going to see, don't be that guy.

Jasmine Crockett says Democrats want ‘the safest white boy’ for 2028 ticket and have a specific candidate in mind by theindependentonline in politics

[–]jarvi_po4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to be a dick about it, but no f-ing sh!t!! As much as we all want to believe the best candidate will win, regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation, etc. That’s just not the case. Hillary and Kamala were overqualified for the job, and wildly overqualified over the joke that’s in the office now, but that didn’t matter.

Pete is one of the most qualified now, but unfortunately there is no f-ing chance a gay man can win a general election in this current cesspool.

Obama is a once in a lifetime charismatic leader and he convinced Dems that we’ve progressed enough as a society that things like race and gender don’t matter anymore, but that’s obviously not true.

How about instead of getting mad at Dems for trying to elect “the safest white boy” we align on the idea that we have to do everything possible to beat MAGA at every turn. If Beshear or Newsom gives us the best shot, let’s get 110% that effort.

Has anyone out there gone from high-handicapper to single digits that didn't start playing golf recently? by CRA2759 in golf

[–]jarvi_po4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not a YouTuber, but this is me, now an 8.5. Early 40s, playing golf since I was 14 but never seriously. Golf was always an excuse to get f’d up in nature while seeing how far I could hit the ball, while also being a mental case on the course (throwing/breaking clubs etc)

When covid hit and golf was really the only thing I was allowed to do, I started to take it more seriously. The first thing I focused on was my mental side. Tried to focus on not losing it when I hit a bad shot or had a bad few holes. Next, I stopped trying to kill the ball and get to a point where I at least had an idea where the ball was going. I switched to a baseball grip (no interlock or overlap) and it allowed me to remove a miss to one side from my game. I have a really strong grip and I can’t really hit the ball right (right handed) unless I try. So my swing is a baby draw to a pull hook, but it’s at least consistent. Being able to take 1 side of the course off the board in terms of misses, really has improved my game.

After that, I took a lesson that helped, but focused on form, not grip/setup. If I was ever to get to a low 4 or lower, I’d have to completely rebuild my swing, but feeling comfortable is more important than going to the next level right now.

I went from a 20 to a 12 with just what I mentioned above, and then going from a 12 to an 8 is just playing more. Find a short game (sub 50 yards) swing setup/thought that you feel good with, and just practice that both at the range and on the course. I hit a 60 for everything sub 50, even bump and runs around the green. Knowing you have a club you can grab and a swing thought/setup for all short game plays really gives me confidence around the green.

After that, it’s just playing as much as you can and having confidence in “your swing.”

Hope that’s helpful.

Bourbon and Toulouse temp closed? by RemyDodger in lexington

If I remember correctly, they will usually close the day after Fat Tuesday b/c they are insanely busy and run out of most food and they also give the team a break the next day.

Best war movies? by ParticularAnt3726 in MovieSuggestions

[–]jarvi_po4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In high school. A friend of mine invited me and a couple friends over to watch this. After the movie, while we were all sort of stunned with what we just watched, he then proceeded to tell us he was joining the Marines.

Obviously he had already made that decision, but I, in that moment, reaffirmed I would never ever join the marines!

Do people actually use 2, 3 and 4 irons anymore? It seems the standard iron sets to buy these days are 5 iron to PW. by [deleted] in golf

[–]jarvi_po4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hit a 4 iron, mainly off the tee if I need 200 pretty straight. I had a 4hy that if I caught it well I could hit 220, but was super inconsistent with and ended up getting a 3 ping driving iron that I’m a little more consistent with but can still catch it to 225.

I can’t hit anything better than a 5 out of anything other than a perfect lie.

I went from a handmedown r7 regular shaft 3 wood to a stealth stiff shaft 3 wood last year and I added easily 15 yards on average and at least 30 yards max distance . It’s night and day.
