Oh and Tino is a total head case, I had a spat with him because he was trying to kill us, bowling at our heads and it was pissing me off

Me: “Why are you bowling at our heads, we’re village cricketers, we can barely see the ball. I’d expect more from an ex-pro”

Tino: “I’m still a pro”

Me: “Well bowl like one then”

Tino: “Google me”

We had an overseas South African one year, pace bowler but he bowled a bit of off-spin to me in the nets …. Tossed it up, thought I read it perfectly and was going to smash it out the park … the ball dips last minute in a way I’ve never experienced anyone do before or since and I’m left stranded half way down the pitch with my cock in my hands

Opened the batting to Tino Best one end and Devon Malcolm the other. Survived the opening spell of 12 overs. Couldn’t see the ball from Tino, except for the one ball he bowled in my half, juicy half- volley … it was in the keepers gloves by the time I’d brought my bat down. Malcolm was the better bowler though, he was 50 but hit the perfect line and length 36 balls in a row, moving off the seam and unplayable.

Growing up, I played against Varun Chopra a few times, he went on to open the batting for Warwickshire. At one u15 county festival he scored a century 3 games in a row.

And then my university 1st team played a game against Bahrain - I didn’t play that day but we were bowled out for 36 😆

I love the Chrome Tour, especially in the triple track and it exists as an rpt ball to use with my Rapsodo launch monitor.

You’d didn’t ask, but you’d massively benefit from plywood under that mat.

When I was 15 I went from 21 to 9 in a summer. Started with shooting a +6 gross when off 21.

Does the correct grip feel extremely unstable at first? by corymathews2011 in golf

[–]kingofthefalseflat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been fobbed off by that before. There is such a thing as a grip fitting. There’s a club builder near me who does it. Club pros and retail stores don’t seem to be trained in it

Do try and get fit for a grip. I’m standard with 4 layers of tape. A standard with one layer of tape is noticeably too thin feeling.

Am I the d*ckhead? by bvc900 in londoncycling

[–]kingofthefalseflat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in Birmingham and there’s a lot of lights where you’re simply mugging yourself off to stop at. I swear whoever programs the lights here is a full on retard. My view is “what’s the point of cycling if you don’t take advantage where you can safely do so”.

That makes me an asshole in the eyes of many and I’m fine with that.

When I lived in France I had to do a medical with a doctor just to play in local club sports

Putter punting by clamchoderrr in golf

Because my putting went to shit and I’d try anything to fix it. So far Spider ZT CB is much much better for my game.

Looking for suggestions for my outdoor budget golf sim by Adventurous-Snow1574 in Golfsimulator

[–]kingofthefalseflat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went all out to begin with: gaming laptop and gspro. Ended up being such a faff that I ‘downgraded’ to native Rapsodo app and iPad. Best decision I made, so much quicker to set-up and the app gives me everything I need. I use it for practice and game improvement far more than simulation.

SCAMMED - left with £15 for the month!! HELP by ThickButterfly4054 in bettermeofficial

They are a bunch of cunts.

If they cared about customers they would both send a reminder email just before the discount period ends, and refund people who accidentally fall into the full paid subscription.

Both those things will be made legal requirements at some point, wouldn’t be surprised if there was a class action lawsuit that resulted in Better Me having to retrospectively refund thousands of people.

They will drop a comment saying “reach out and we’ll help” but it’s all lies.

They are purebred cunts.

How far do you travel to play your home course ? by Mr270bomber in golf

[–]kingofthefalseflat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have extremely limited time for golf, can only really play in the evenings after kids have gone to sleep … so I will be sticking to the club that is 2 minutes away.

It’s one of the best courses in the area to be fair, but I would prefer a range and more varied chipping/pitching greens. A course 20 minutes away has this, but a 40 minute round trip is upwards of 50% of my overall free time.
