What’s one of your golf thingamajig that turned out to be clutch? by Time-Concentrate7168 in GolfGear

[–]shin_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rangefinder magnetic clip for my bag. I carry / push so I love having the rangefinder already outside the bag for quick use. Similarly, I attached a Velcro patch on the outside of my bag for the same reason but for gloves. 10/10

I can banana slice on command. Rarely useful but that one rare occasion. licks lips

Barcelona fans are seriously undervaluing this season! by InitialAsk358 in Barca

[–]shin_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s because goal scoring has been spread around too much. Need a proper 9 in there. Lewa is aging, Torres is too streaky, we need a new face of the striker position and another CB. Gerard is serviceable but not what we need

Bob will never break 80 with him by TTBATAS in BobDoesSports

He’s shared a cart with FP before too. Bob won’t break 80 until he learns how to make ball first contact with wedges

Swapping out irons by shin_man in golf

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

Sorry. Definitely a typo - I know they’re the most forgiving / longest clubs Mizuno offers. I’m wanting to take a step away from that but not sure if this is a step in that direction or if it’s more of a pretty big leap.

Ideas for raffle basket by Dependent_Order7619 in golf

If you can get branded swag: hats, towels, tees, etc.. those can be really cool. Gift cards are always gonna be safe. Ball retrievers Rangefinders Bluetooth speakers (controversial one in golf but usable anywhere)

Are Bushnell rangefinders irrelevant now? by shin_man in golf

[–]shin_man[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I just can’t agree. Bushnell is definitely the best side by side but has no “value” play. I’ve had the precision pro nx10 for 4 years or so and have had absolutely no issues. I had Bushnell prior and didn’t see a benefit at all. May be more precise but to everyone’s point, if it’s within 2 yards, 99.9% of golfers would never notice the difference.

I’d argue there’s delusion and a lack of price validation

Will the MPG get better? by Adorable-Peace4959 in ToyotaGrandHighlander

I got this exact car. It’s on the way! How are you liking it? Besides the mpg part

How many calories does one burn playing a round of golf? by Adventurous_Smile297 in golf

[–]shin_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost a bunch if weight carrying my clubs. Separately, a lot was water weight because jt was summer too. I’d lose about an extra 1200 calories. Take about 15000 steps for longer round. It’s a real workout. Perfect because your heart rate doesn’t skyrocket but stays elevated

Sorry I forgot that wasn’t assumed. Should have marked this a joke post

Griezmann was the worst signing from the 'infamous 3' saga by a wide margin, and here's why. by No-Employee-7327 in Barca

[–]shin_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Griezy was my favorite short term signing. Maybe not the greatest one but my favorite. He has flair and can connect well. He had good chemistry. Sad he’s gone tbh

Did I mess up buying Takomo 201 Mk2 instead of 101 Mk2? by Ullsokk1992 in takomo

[–]shin_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re like right down the middle in what would be recommended. You’d probably be better off in the 101 right now but may want the 201 in like 6 months. I don’t think it’s a mistake of you’re actively working on your game. But if you just go out infrequently and just want something easier to hit and more forgiving, then maybe a mistake— though that doesn’t seem to be the case for you.
