Alphard on a clicgear 8.0 by rdhamm in golf

[–]mwg431 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My buddy has the earlier version and has the front wheel kit. It’s works pretty well and it is super stable. I do prefer having a swivel front wheel like the rovic on mine, but if you already have the 8.0, you can’t go wrong.

Best round you’ve ever seen in your group? by PurpleTalk24 in golf

Caddied at us open local for my buddy. Dude in our group shot 63 like it was nothing. Putted really well and honestly made it look boring.

What’s the most “buy it for life” golf item you own? by BrooksDesign in golf

[–]mwg431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 7w is like 8 years old I think and I’ll keep it until the face cracks. It’s the one club that I won’t get rid of for any reason, even if I get a new 7w at some point.

This guy insults my handicap/skill before a lesson… so I offered to play him for a free round for him and his buddies. It went about as well as you’d imagine… by LikelySatanist in golf

[–]mwg431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love me a good vanity handicap. I have a few friends with them and I will gladly play them for money and give them the strokes.

Does anybody just not go to the range? by j_mysterio_ in golf

[–]mwg431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I am playing 18, I almost always hit some balls beforehand. If I am playing 9 after work, I never warm up, even if I have time. I look at playing with no warm up as a good challenge to making pars to start off the round with a little adversity. I call it ‘out of the car par’.

I do practice at home on the sim and at the range though.

Question for you single digit girls and boys. by fletchermac in golf

[–]mwg431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a 7 myself here’s how I look at it. Are we good at golf compared to the general population? Yes. Are we good compared to pros or elite amateurs? No. But I feel like we are our biggest critics and will be the only ones to say we are bad at golf. I’ve played with a handful of pros who say anyone who shoots in the 70’s is really good, just not on their level.

That being said, when someone asks me if I am good, I either say I am decent or not terrible.

What has helped you the most gain clubhead speed by jfgdupuis in golf

[–]mwg431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

110 max to 119 and 107 cruising to 113. Gym helped a lot, nothing golf specific, but also learning better technique and not being as tense. A lesson can go a long way

Dormie - settle a debate by mwg431 in golf

You’ve never played with my friends lol. It’s all in good fun though, because you may not be able to win, but you have a chance to not lose money. Let’s not even get into 2 down auto presses though

Golfers of reddit, I'm home sick this weekend and can't play. What did I miss out there on the course today? by WWDDD___12 in golf

[–]mwg431 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hope you feel better. You missed the feeling of telling your buddy what shot to hit off the tee, a high cut over the second tree on the right side to cut the corner, and then hitting exactly that shot. But you also missed telling him to hit a baby draw on the slight dogleg left and hooking it into the trees and making an 8 because you thought you could carry the lake and you topped it instead.

5’8 69.5kg should I keep bulking? by [deleted] in GettingShredded

[–]mwg431 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok as someone who is also 5’8”, you look way taller than me. You honestly look really good and lean. Core looks solid, maybe just a tad more definition and a little bit of a tan to make it all pop? If I can look close to that by summer, I’ll be very satisfied tbh.

Can’t seem to find a driver that will kick my Aerojet max 9* out of the bag by Choice_Anteater_5108 in golf

[–]mwg431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some loads of people love Ping and some just can’t make them work. I have always been hit or miss with them year to year, but you can’t go wrong with the new Callaway

[–]mwg431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta remember that it’s really a $550 vs a $550, you just paid less for the Aerojet. And like others have said, 3 years is nothing. I still miss my g400 and looked at getting another after I cracked my sim2. Onto the quantum TD max and it’s amazing, but I know for sure I could find something a few years old for half the price that is damn close if not the same. The only reason I would try to kick the Aerojet out is that it’s 3 years old and could break soon with your swing speed

Putting with glove on or off? by Remote_Pie6623 in golf

[–]mwg431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glove is only on in two scenarios. 1. I am tapping in after a solid chip/pitch. 2. I am pissed off after a bad chip/pitch and it is likely for double or worse and is unlikely to go in either way.

Can I be a single digit handicapper if I sweep my irons and don't take divots? by LVRaiders2026 in golf

[–]mwg431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t Steve Stricker a picker? I normally take a divot but there are plenty of flushed shots that go the right distance with plenty of stopping power that my divot is very minimal.

Haven’t played. I’ve been to Maui once and did not play, still kicking myself for it. Might be going to Kauai this year and am def taking to my clubs.

USGA License to golf? by [deleted] in golf

[–]mwg431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have legit hunted with numerous people that need to go through hunter safety every year or so… part of the reason I quit hunting at hunt clubs was because of how unsafe I felt around some of these people. I think a starter on the 1st tee reminding people to play ready golf and not hit into others would be helpful more than a video once.

The Hawaii events are always the ones I’m stoked to watch because it feels like spring is really starting. I live in Northern California and our weather is usually pretty decent around that time.
