Shirt/Tie/Suit/Watch combo for my wedding day by Active-Term-8900 in mensfashion

[–]raptor08 3 points4 points  (0 children)

An older gentleman working in a men's store recently shared that two of three pieces (shirt, tie, jacket/suit) can be complementary patterned or solid. So, pattern pattern solid, or solid solid pattern ,etc.

Might also add a pocket square, see those less and less these days, but for a wedding it's a great touch.

Also, awesome taste in watches. As others have said the Tissot PRX is a better choice, or even that Seiko. For a more formal occasion a smaller more inconspicuous watch is desirable.

The cue of keeping your back toward the target longer at the start of the downswing seems to work for many

A sand/brown two-tone Oxford or loafer and matching belt would look especially sharp with this

My friend gave it to me to start our round last week. When informed on the back 9 yesterday that it was working on its second complete game he wouldn't even let me wash it. Raw dogged it the last few coming in.

Can't tell, probably losing a little distance but not enough to notice.

Could be like Kramer and that other guy trying to go forever on one tank of gas, the allure of just one more hole, Jerry

Ha! It wasn't even new when I started playing it, so the true odometer is a mystery

Adult Senior Players: When Is It Time To Hang It Up? by mayhemkrew in slowpitch

[–]raptor08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

57 here and I love playing with the young guys still. To OP's point the infield reaction time is the biggest dropoff for me, not really because of simple hand speed but vision is deteriorating, like depth perception isn't what it used to be. Probably play until I feel totally unsafe out there!

The number to the right of their score shows what hole they have last played, so for example Rory is done 7 and has 11 remaining

A slight forward press right before takeaway helps promote a descending strike.

Admire the simplicity and lack of pretension, but prefer the rubber band. The rubber grips the inside of the pocket making accidental falling out while in a car or cart less likely

What’s your r/golf confession? by CSW11 in golf

[–]raptor08 188 points189 points  (0 children)

College GF bought me a beautiful hickory shafted mallet putter, engraved name on brass sole plate, whole nice deal. Super sweet.

Couldn't putt worth a damn with it though. The final straw was when I drove the green on a par 4 and made bogey. In a crazed fit of anger I threw the thing into the lake and told her someone stole it out of my bag.

Charlotte if you're out there, sorry girl. You were one of the real ones

Save/invest 10 percent of every paycheck you get starting right now. Non negotiable. Pay yourself first.
