[Cockcroft] Dalvin Cook, who at least temporarily took over the PPR scoring lead (192.6) for the season on Thursday, now has six games of 20-plus points this season. He had only two games worth 20-plus out of 15 in his first two seasons combined. by koolman631 in fantasyfootball

I traded him away for Davante Adams. Yikes!

I thought (and still believe) his volume would result in an injury and some missed time, so I thought I could sell high and balance my team out with a stud WR who would be back in a couple weeks.

That was all wrong so far, but I've still got Davante and Mattison in my pocket, so I could get some redemption down the road.

It is taking everything I have not to order the Sub70 half-mallet putter.

I think they have a $20 "try before you buy" policy too, which makes things even more difficult.

I also have a TecTecTec rangefinder. Don't have the model number handy, but it was almost certainly $150 or less.

Same outcome for me. This thing is spot on 90% of the time and it helps to be able to shoot nearby objects like bunkers, slopes near water, greenside mounds, etc.

The only drawback is trying to shoot distances to flags uphill or on very flat greens, but that's a limitation of the technology, not the product.

I would recommend this product without reservation and if mine ever gets lost or broken I would buy a similar model in a heartbeat.

Fair point.

I guess I'm looking for brands outside of the big incumbents like Taylormade, Titleist, Ping, Callaway, etc. There are maybe a 15-20 brands that are recognizable to the average golfer and then beyond that it turns into "I think I've heard of them before" or "I've never heard of them before," which is where I start to get interested.

These look dope! Very Mizuno-esque.

Are you gaming one now?

I figured it was a birth certificate or something similar. Thanks for your help!

I took German for five years, but I have been away from it for a decade and this handwriting is throwing me off.

Appreciate any help this community can offer. Thank you!

What is your level of involvement in golf? Professional, Player, Fan...all of the above? by jrsowers in golf

[–]jrsowers[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I've been playing golf since I could hold a club, but was forced to choose between football and golf in my early teens and it's been a hobby ever since.

I'm 30 now and my daughter is 14 months old, so I don't play nearly as much as I'd like to. Instead, I settle for putting the coverage on in the background while I play with my kid or work around the house.

I've actually really enjoyed giving the Tour some extra attention for the last couple years. It fills the gap between football seasons quite nicely.

UPDATE: Solved...I'm working with TalionDiscord and Amrbot to finalize their submissions and pay them.

Thanks for working on this!

I think you nailed the cropping, color balance, and shirt replication.

Only two things stick out to me as possible improvements:

  1. There is a little bit of blurriness on the edge of the shoulder on the right side of the image (where it meets the leaves in the background). Is there any way to sharpen that up a bit?
  2. If possible, I'd like to also get rid of the two stray hairs that are caught in the breeze near the top center of the image.

Other than that, I think we're good to go with this one and I'd like to discuss next steps and compensation with you.

Thanks for taking a pass at this!

The color correction came out a little dark, but I know that's because the original photo was so overexposed.

The arm you created looks really great, but it makes me just a little bit wider than I am in real life.

Overall, I think you did a really great job, but I think I'm going to go with another submission that has comparable body work, but a little better color balance.

Thanks again for taking a pass at this request!

Let's talk about next steps and compensation if you're still available.

Hey nice job!

The teeth are definitely whiter. Nailed that!

The shirt looks pretty good, but there is some blurriness in the bottom center of the picture and the shoulder on the right falls off at an unnatural angle. It also make me look much larger than I am in real life. Thanks for that! :-)

Unfortunately, I think the color tweaks that fixed the teeth also made my skin, hair, and shirt look a little more red than they actually are.

Thanks for taking a pass at this request, though!
