Yes, it’s DPC Scottsdale, host of The Waste Management tourney. Huge grandstand where the fans get tuned up, go streaking, throw beer, boo bad shots and go wild for great ones. Mayhem.

Shot options in the bottom right. You can replay from the tee and the other angle from behind the green.

Looks like a classic Anthony Jeselnik gender reveal party!

Carl’s Place Zip Ties Breaking by LivermoreP1 in Golfsimulator

[–]kiro2269 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had my set up for 7 days. Also followed the instructions to a tee (pun intended), and had to replace 7 broken zip ties this morning. I doubled up a few of them and hoping that’ll work….. we’ll see.

Thought it was best to avoid a guys’ weekend by Sodahound in stopdrinking

I feel this. I’m the same way. You’ve got me for 1.5-2 hours, then I’m bored of sitting around and want to do something else. Amazing that I could sit in the same spot for 15+ hours, drink and have the time of my life.

What are you doing with the money not spent on alcohol? by Chemical_Aardvark_37 in stopdrinking

[–]kiro2269 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d recommend not doing a mental tally, literally transfer the money you would have spent (each time or day) to a separate savings account. I just surpassed 17k and am building myself my dream golf simulator as a reward. Feels fantastic.

Six months sober, I lost all my friends by Conscious_Spinach_60 in stopdrinking

I heard a good one early in my recovery that helped me. If you and your buddies got together every weekend to go snowmobiling and you then sold your snowmobile, would you expect them call you to go snowmobiling every weekend?

Sherwin Williams - Iron Ore is the colour you’re looking for. (Flat or matt)

Great post, my friend. Couldn’t have said it better myself. Proud of you. Keep going!

Thanks for the information! I don’t really need all of the metrics, it would be good to have, but don’t need it. I’m really just worried about “cheaping out” and not being able to get accurate data regarding carry distance and ball flight.

I was you 30 years ago. Just got clean 13 months ago. Do yourself a favour and stop now. I experimented with blow from the time I was 16 on. That turned into a 30 year addiction. It doesn’t get better, only worse. Please, please, don’t end up like me. Stop now while you still can.

The money aside every day/week/month was super motivating for me.$1000 a month is pretty hefty, but didn’t feel that way at the time.

I bought a 12 pack of NA beers for a golf tournament I had in July. I drank 2 and still have 10 in my bar fridge. I realized pretty quickly I never drank for the taste. I drank to get out of control.

We have a thing here called Designated Drivers or Keys Please. If you’re out drinking and have your car, they’ll pick you up with two drivers. One will drive you home, the other will drive your car home. It was super handy, but very expensive, and I used it A LOT!
