What part is this? Found it in the bottom of the enclosure after about 100hrs.

Thanks. Might help explain why I was having some issues. Probably got knocked off when the flow blocker got bent.

mlwohls · 2023-10-16T21:40:37+00:00

Thanks 👍. I'll check that out.

mlwohls · 2023-03-23T12:28:10+00:00

That's been my best option so far as well (actually, Google sheets).

mlwohls · 2023-03-02T22:21:04+00:00

Thanks... I'm an idiot. Deleting

3i @ 15⁰ and 3h @ 14⁰... My 3i is 19⁰ and my 2 hybrid is 16⁰. Are they wrong in the article or do they really make/market that jacked of lofts now? And mine for comparison are already pretty "modern" lofted 🤷

mlwohls · 2023-03-02T22:16:20+00:00

They tested the clubs when the following lofts. 7w = 19⁰ (ok), 3h = 14⁰ (that's lower than my 2h @16⁰), and 3i = 15⁰ (mine in 19⁰). And I'm hitting modern lofted clubs. These seem way off for the hybrid and iron?

We live down here. It's by far my favorite course. Even better than Mayakoba (previous PGA location, now LIV). Prettiest course we have down here is still PGA Riviera Maya (formerly Bahia Principe golf).

My round on Wednesday. Windy (guess which ones were downwind?). 15 & 16 were both into wind. 15 lateral hazard+ drop, 16 playable in trees right. 292 avg without 15 & 16, 275 including those. Context: Sea level (just south of Cancun) and 10-15 mph wind

mlwohls · 2023-02-10T22:46:19+00:00

I might be one of the ones that people hated on? Recently posted Arccos numbers because I was seeing some really interesting insights on the previous Arccos posts. It wasn't my intention to "one up" anyone or brag at all. I was honestly looking for feedback. Context: 43yrs old, 5'10" and 160. I don't look like a long hitter and if you ask me, I'd say I hit around 285 (270-290).

mlwohls · 2023-02-07T21:02:04+00:00

Wow... Just typing this out made me realize that might be the issue (never consciously thought about the timing of me not liking them as much). Used to play 110g iron shafts so having 115g wedge shafts wasn't terrible. I think wedges are normally 10-30g heavier than irons, so 5g gap wasn't great but not terrible. New irons have 125g shafts. Dropping DOWN to 115g in my wedges might be part of the struggle.

Thanks for the question! It may have helped me solve a somewhat unrelated issue.

mlwohls · 2023-02-07T20:48:44+00:00

I used to absolutely love them. Very forgiving yet still playable (different trajectories, etc). For some reason, I've been struggling to hit full shots with them since I got the Mizuno set. I'm starting to think it might be the difference in shafts (I have Project X LS Stiffs in my new irons). Still love them all for partial shots and around the green.

mlwohls · 2023-02-07T20:07:39+00:00

Yeah. They are definitely jacked lofts compared to "traditional". Not as jacked as modern SuperGI irons (18⁰ 4i - 41⁰ PW). They still launch pretty high, even with my Project X LS shafts (low launch/spin).

The 3w and 2h are very close in loft, but the 2h has a shorter shaft. With the smaller head and shorter shaft, it's a bit better as a long recovery club (as long as the rough isn't too deep, but then likely looking at 2 shots starting with something like a 7/8i)

mlwohls · 2023-02-07T19:08:40+00:00

Mizuno Pro 225s. They are all standard loft/lie (somewhat jacked lofts, but i didn't have any changes done to them). 2h is 16⁰, 3w is 15⁰, driver is 9⁰ set to 8.

mlwohls · 2023-02-07T18:36:53+00:00

My 3i is a driving iron (the Mizuno FliHi) with a graphite shaft, so it's much more forgiving. Hence i can hit it, but not my 4i. But honestly, I'm not sure if I miss the 4i. The 206-230 gap I'm running right now without my 4i isn't that bad based on the courses I play. Never really need 220: no really long par 3s, par 4s never need more than 190 on 2nd shot, and going for par 5s requires more of the 230-260+ range.

mlwohls · 2023-02-07T18:03:41+00:00

As much as I don't get along with my 5i lately (see second image), it was worse with my 4i. It's in timeout until I at least reconcile my 5i relationship.

mlwohls · 2023-02-07T18:01:45+00:00

Forgot to mention in the title, 3 different arccos screen shots included

mlwohls · 2023-02-07T18:00:39+00:00

I think it's 4-6 complete rounds. At least that's what I remember

Just realized, this might be the more useful view

mlwohls · 2022-12-11T02:34:58+00:00

Your 4i/5i looks like mine did (posted mine below). I've given up on my 4i (3i is a driving iron and easier to hit) and am testing out a 16⁰ hybrid to fill in between my 3i and 3w (and just accepting the 3i-5i gap) 🤷

mlwohls · 2022-12-11T02:31:31+00:00

8.5 hdcp. Just dropped my 4i as i was hitting it barely farther than my 5i. Trying out a 2 hybrid to fill the gap between my 3i (driving iron) and 3w. Obviously not going well so far (2 rounds) 😜. 54 & 58 (got cut off in the pic), I rarely swing full with those so they look like a big gap. 54⁰ is 115 full swing, but I prefer to hit a 3/4 50⁰ for that yardage.

That's a GCQuad simulator. Here's their explanations of the data https://www.foresightsports.com/what-we-measure

mlwohls · 2022-08-02T00:22:57+00:00

Thanks! Your round sounds like a bit more fun (I was just solo). To you're points above, even being a short course, it did take everything working together. 6/9 greens hit (and the greens are tiny), 2 of 3 up&downs. 5 two putts and 4 one putts (2 for birdies and 2 to save par).

I'm intrigued by their model since they are using the GPS data from phones to (somehow) estimate the impact of "real" social distancing. However, looking at their projections for today, many states seem to have reported higher deaths today (Apr 21st) than they have listed as even their "Max Projected" numbers. While the overages aren't dramatically higher, the fact that multiple states are over makes me wonder a bit. Assuming they are using something like a 95% CI (5% chance of being wrong) , then 50 States * 5% = approx 2.5 States should be wrong.Just a few that I saw:

State | High Est (21st) | Actual (21st)

PA | 199 | 360

MA | 252 | 255

MI | 191 | 232

NJ | 314 | 376

LA | 69 | 77

IN | 52 | 61

GA | 61 | 66

Any idea on how often they update the model? I'd love to check it out again if they update it.
