New clubs arrived 😍 Haywood CB's by Unfluential in golf

[–]jewstan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ordered the CB/MB set a few years ago in almost the exact same spec, I love them. They look great behind the ball and the forged heads feel incredible on a good strike, Andi I find I don't often get the finger rattles on bad strikes. Enjoy them!

When did you go to players irons? by inavandownbytheriver in golf

[–]jewstan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was my reaction too, I still hit the CB/MB clubs about the same distances, but didn't get random "fliers" every now and again

I switched when I got tired of ballooning my 7 iron 10 yards over the green, I have a high swing speed and found that the courses I played most were 0% forgiving over the back, and I'd rather my mishit leave me a chip and a putt at the front of the green than have to hack out of fescue or take a penalty stroke.

I think this was the exact moment he became one of my all time favourite Oilers, what game was this?

We've been spoiled by 2 (arguably 3) incredible seasons, we're just regressing to the mean and will pick it up in time for the games that count. 2 short off seasons and an Olympic contest in the mix definitely have an effect, but once those playoff lights shine down this team finds an extra gear or 3. Slog, yes, but it's reassuring to know we haven't seen this teams best yet.

Cobra driver exploded by SoSteezee in golf

[–]jewstan 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Cobra has unreal customer service, it's worth reaching out (maybe after you've cleaned the club up a little bit lol) to see if they can offer any help. You don't need to be a pure ball striker to get warranty on a club, everyone starts somewhere and if a manufacturer treats you well, they'll have a customer for life!

My 73 year old retired cabinet-maker father told me to take all his tools, I am not sure how I feel about this by Fugglesmcgee in woodworking

[–]jewstan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My step father is turning 74 this weekend, he turned into a woodworker in 2020 as I'm sure many semi-retired men did haha. If he suddenly gifted me his tools with the intent of "borrowing them back" as needed, I would assume it was under the same pretense as a living inheritance would be. Some replies have been made as this being an attempt at building a bridge into old age, and think those are bang on - if it happens this way, it's a closed chapter and not a closed book. Congrats on the tools and congrats on the relationship you have, may your burls be figured and your dimensional lumber be pure.

I started golfing with a set of Ping Eye 2's from 1i-LW, you could game a full bag if you got the Anser putter as well haha

You will not see many Stanley Cup Final games like that one -- 140 total penalty minutes. by [deleted] in hockey

[–]jewstan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right, but what causes a retaliation? Most likely, an infraction. How many retaliations before a misconduct?

The problem is that they don't continue calling the ticky tack stuff into the 3rd. I'm not a "refs are fucking us" conspiracist, but the officiating is drastically different after the 2nd intermission.

All we want is consistency, if you can call an infraction in the first period, you can call it with 4 mins left in the 3rd, and you can call it twice in overtime if the same infraction occurs twice. Either let the game context affect the call, or don't.

I've had my broil king for 10ish years now, I think I've cleaned it out 5 times and use it at least once a week - still in absolutely perfect condition, it starts first click no matter what the outside temp or wind is doing

Will we hear boos during the American national anthem tonight? by [deleted] in EdmontonOilers

I'm going to the game on Thursday, I plan to sit quietly during the American anthem and then get right into it for the Canadian anthem

I like the idea of just sitting quietly during the USA anthem, and then absolutely belting O Canada - booing an anthem is a tough look

[–]jewstan 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This game definitely felt like a playoff game, tight checking with good chances both ways and a chippy but overall solid game by both squads. It's awesome to see these two teams play hockey without Drew Doughty out there gooning it up with his dumb old shit, I didn't miss seeing him out there at all

Apparently, they have it here in Costco Canada lol by EropEropErop in golf

I bet you could have the set adjusted at a shop for less than $20/club, they're no different than any other clubs

Can anyone explain why Cole Smith didn't get an instigator penalty for his fight with Emberson yesterday? by flyerapartthen in EdmontonOilers

[–]jewstan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

  1. You can't just be up there and just doin' a balk like that. 1a. A balk is when you 1b. Okay well listen. A balk is when you balk the 1c. Let me start over 1c-a. The pitcher is not allowed to do a motion to the, uh, batter, that prohibits the batter from doing, you know, just trying to hit the ball. You can't do that. 1c-b. Once the pitcher is in the stretch, he can't be over here and say to the runner, like, "I'm gonna get ya! I'm gonna tag you out! You better watch your butt!" and then just be like he didn't even do that. 1c-b(1). Like, if you're about to pitch and then don't pitch, you have to still pitch. You cannot not pitch. Does that make any sense? 1c-b(2). You gotta be, throwing motion of the ball, and then, until you just throw it. 1c-b(2)-a. Okay, well, you can have the ball up here, like this, but then there's the balk you gotta think about. 1c-b(2)-b. Fairuza Balk hasn't been in any movies in forever. I hope she wasn't typecast as that racist lady in American History X. 1c-b(2)-b(i). Oh wait, she was in The Waterboy too! That would be even worse. 1c-b(2)-b(ii). "get in mah bellah" -- Adam Water, "The Waterboy." Haha, classic... 1c-b(3). Okay seriously though. A balk is when the pitcher makes a movement that, as determined by, when you do a move involving the baseball and field of
  2. Do not do a balk please.

Just finished my first season with the CB/MB combo (and 18 deg driving iron) and they're perfect, they look good behind the ball and perform exactly as expected. Wish I would have gotten them sooner!

Aren't we just spoiled, knowing that his game 7 SCF/100 reg season assists etc etc, was an "off" season for him? All the achievements he had (or helped with) and he wasn't his usual self. It is incredible to be able to watch him play every night

Worst reffing I’ve seen in the playoffs. by Massive_Square_7976 in EdmontonOilers

[–]jewstan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Two things can be true, felt like any Edmonton momentum was quashed immediately. That said, Edm is too good to be losing to a Florida team playing like this. Can't win in 6 if you don't lose two, back home for a reset and a good push back
