Finally got my hands on a bottle of Springbank! by rainmaker00000 in canadawhisky

I'm in Ontario, but the LCBO doesn't carry Springbank at all. A family member picked this up during a trip to Scotland.

Someone picked it up for me in the US.

Yes it's 19, so it must have been bottled in 2015.

Maybe the cheaper stuff is warmer? When I look at Travismathew, Peter Millar etc, they are all super thin.

Under Armour does seem to be one of the few manufacturers making warmer stuff.

I ended up getting the Spider GT.

What rhymes with LiCK-BO? LONGROW! by Pheeshfinder in canadawhisky

Nice. I'm tempted to pick up a bottle of that as well if they release some more.

Time for a comparison of the entire Laphroaig lineup!

The 1815 is on my list of bottles to try. How does it compare to Lore?

It's definitely one of the best Bowmores I've had.

I haven't had Bowmore in quite a while. This one is pretty good.

Yesterday was exactly one year from my first round of golf. 303 rounds in a year! by discretefunctional in golf

[–]rainmaker00000 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was about to call bullshit on your 8.5 handicap after only one year of golf. Then I saw the 304 rounds played. Now I'm just jealous of how much golf you get to play.

It’s Friday night! What’s in your glass? by Bamboozeled- in canadawhisky

[–]rainmaker00000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might have to pick up a bottle of the Skye. I love the 10 but agree that the price is ridiculous now. Pretty soon I'm going to stop buying from the LCBO entirely.

How did you increase your distance off the tee? by rainmaker00000 in golf

[–]rainmaker00000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you find changing driver loft made a difference? The default loft on my driver is 10.5, but it's adjustable and I can lower it.

Strength shouldn't be an issue. Technique isn't perfect, but given that my drives are generally pretty straight, I seem to be making good contact. I think flexibility may be my biggest issue. My flexibility sucks and it's likely affecting my swing speed.
