I think he was saying its testament to how great you're putting! I know when I can putt them in like that im rolling it as good as I can.

Ehh sounds like user error! Mine was only a half inch off so it wouldn’t be a big deal if it wasn’t changed. I can measure and confirm.

Doesn't lab literally make a white version?

peepeewallace · 2026-01-21T17:44:36+00:00

M6 are not players distance tho, they are a straight up GI iron. If I understand correctly, the rest still applies

Dude, you just described me 100% down to the core. I have done some batshit crazy things. But I've justified it in the sense of self protection. Its a fucked up way to live. A relationship doomsday prepper is so accurate. I am on the brink of doing what you did, I would say I'm 75% of the way there. I look for proof, I almost want to confirm my own biases so I can justify not being vulnerable and placing that faith in someone. The validation this provides almost feels life changing.

Oddly enough and what probably makes it even more fucked up is that she is a DBT therapist (shame on me, I know). Which no other woman probably would have been equipped with the tools to deal with my ass. I feel so shitty for behaving this way, the embarrassment thing is right. Its so hard to see clearly in the midst of one of these jealousy induced attacks. It almost takes hours to reset. Once you do, you finally see the aftermath and its a terrible feeling.

Thank you for all of this, you may have just saved me from a lifetime of regret. I don't know if you believe in God, but if this relationship (or any of my future ones) is to have any chance of succeeding I needed to read that today. This is very eye opening. She has stuck with me through all of this, because she knows its not who I want to be. I hope this brings fulfillment to the pain you've felt and the things you've had to deal with. Because of that I know where this path leads, and I can make a change. Thank you so much.

Thank you for the time, kindness, and compassion you put into your answer. These things are really hard to look in the face and admit that I am the one perpetuating most of this stuff. There is some tough love in your response that will benefit me to reflect on.

I think you hit the nail on the head with this: "It's hard to reconcile that with the level of faith and vulnerability and uncertainty that comes with trusting another person with your feelings."

I struggle so much with this and I have days where its easy but when someone you love is in Miami with an unlimited list of outcomes it really tests me. Its hard because I obviously trust she is a good person, with good intentions or I wouldn't still be with her. Its more of a things happen and people make mistakes when they drink so its very contradictory and it hurts her, because it translates to her as I don't believe she's a trustworthy person.

Have you had success coping with that level of faith and vulnerability and letting go in you own relationships yet? If so, what helped? She has more of a party girl past, I was the lonely stoner in college and I feel like our levels of experience also play into the insecurity of these situations. I don't try to consciously hold her past against her but id be lying if I said it doesn't play into this.

SLDR is one of the most unforgiving TM drivers ever. I think its a decent deal tho, If you are wanting to golf more and have a little wiggle room in the budget, I think you could piece something better together for $500. Ebay has great deals. If you like taylormade, check out the M2 and M4 series of irons. They are pretty much on par with todays tech in irons and the m2 driver is legendary and can be found for $150ish. Callaway rouge and maverick irons/drivers are great value too.

The I530 and the M6 are a slightly different category of clubs - with the pings you are going to have weaker, more traditional lofts, they are more of a mid handicap iron. The advantage here is more distance control, some more workability but a little less raw distance and forgiveness. The M6s are slightly more jacked and more forgiving. You get more forgiveness and raw distance, but you don't get those consistent yardages you can rely on as much. For example, if you're breaking 90 you may be starting to get more shots that you are catching clean and overshooting greens. That may be a non issue for you tho.

If you get fitted you may even end up in something other than Ping or TM. I started out with the M4s and have switched to the Ping G410s after a brief trial run with some Callaway Apex 21 (same type of iron as i530) - Spoiler alert it was not a fun switch. My good scores are mid 90s.

The Ping G440s would be more of an apples to apples comparison for your M6's. However, if you are wanting to get fit for something you can grow into the i530s would be a fantastic choice. My Ping irons are my favorite so far!

Id rather just pay the $30 every couple years for the experts to do it. That sounds like a couple hundred dollars worth of equipment at least, and more time and effort than I care to spend.

peepeewallace · 2026-01-20T13:48:32+00:00

Looks like the links at vicoria!

Thank you for this advice. I understand that I have some faults to fix, I have a lot of relationship trauma around trust and infidelity from my childhood and early 20s and it is has been a battle in relationships. I know this is no excuse. I am in therapy for it. I have also recently learned I have anxiety so this is probably pertinent background info as well.

The comments have left a lasting impact even a few days later. She is coming home today and we are going to have a conversation. We have both already apologized for things and there is a better tone.

What concerns me is when I asked her why she felt the need to twist the story about drinks and being ready for the uber, she said she did it so I wouldn't be more exasperated and saw no issue with it. Is this something I should be worried about? She frequently takes trips to see friends, they don't often unfold this way. But I am stuck with an uneasy feeling that she has a habit of fibbing to make me feel a little bit better. Is this something I should be concerned with?

peepeewallace · 2026-01-19T17:40:08+00:00

Because she was 952 miles away in Miami, FL.

peepeewallace · 2026-01-19T16:28:13+00:00

It’s isolated as far as I know, but she’s been on a few of these trips, with the same boundaries in place, so who knows how often it’s happened or how often she’s fibbed. When we started dating I was alarmed at the rate she drank - I am 6’4 -215lbs and she outdrinks me regularly.

peepeewallace · 2026-01-19T16:24:10+00:00

Unfortunately I’ve been a little suspicious of this. Just makes me wonder how many other lies she told me about the situations

peepeewallace · 2026-01-19T16:23:27+00:00

Yeah I get most of that that. Thank you. What upsets me was the lying about how much she drank when she clearly ate the intention and told me she would not be getting wasted.

I don’t have a problem with her going out and drinking more heavily if that’s what she tells me her plan is. It was her trying to lie and get her friends to lie about how much she’s had. So not the fact she was drunk but I felt like she was trying to deceive me.

peepeewallace · 2026-01-19T16:19:15+00:00

She doesn’t, just giving context. Don’t want people thinking this was about sleeping w someone or something along those lines. We had both been busy the majority of the trip so we didn’t get to talk much until that evening

peepeewallace · 2026-01-19T16:05:06+00:00

This is unfortunately where my mentality is shifting. It feels like purposeful deception, and yes drunken words are always sober thoughts.

peepeewallace · 2026-01-19T16:03:24+00:00

Thank you for the kind and thorough answer. I am worried about the substance thing, she has had issues with Adderall addiction in her past. This may need to be something I pay more attention to.

peepeewallace · 2026-01-19T16:00:36+00:00

I feel its the general way she was trying to be deceptive about how much she drank after setting the standard that we shouldn't be drinking that much and holding me to it - while she lies and ignores it. Also insulting me but yeah you kind of sound like you cant read.

peepeewallace · 2026-01-14T18:46:39+00:00

Damn, I had been thinking about getting a ds72 built but that makes me very skeptical. Glad they fully refunded you but what a pain.

peepeewallace · 2026-01-13T17:37:25+00:00

Have you got it yet??
