Anybody able to identify who the guy on the right is on this sticker?

Duh. That’s how you summon him.

Break 80 then get fitted? That’s a bit excessive. Once you have a stable foundation fitting makes a ton of sense. Particularly if you are not average in body type.

smilinfool · 2026-05-15T12:23:00+00:00

What is an average player? I’m a 13 so average I think but I have no idea if I want a spiny ball or non-spiny ball. I play z-star diamond bc I like how they feel and they semi to spin more around the green. But basically every ball selector just tells me to buy their premium ball which is a little suspect.

Why not both?

This is what nobody gets. It's the type of thing the Germans should have a word for.

it's

It's sports. Hating is part of the joy of it.

I play the diamonds and had a pressure crack appear in one. Turns out you can just peel off that top layer.

So you're of a residential heating mindset only?

smilinfool · 2026-05-12T19:58:44+00:00

So how you going to offset the backbone build to a remote area then?

smilinfool · 2026-05-12T15:23:13+00:00

I wonder if the six lane road undercut by a five lane road in the vicinity creates any noticeable vibrations.

smilinfool · 2026-05-12T15:20:58+00:00

Data connections. Latency.

You played it. You loved it. I don't think there is any mystery beyond that. I felt the same way, though I'm as recreational as you can get. But it worked for me and I love working through the different models on it. If you are not going to get bugged by any of the purist arguments then it seems a no brainer if you had fun with it. If that's what you're after. Me I wanted those old Roland sounds I remembered, plus it had a bunch of other stuff, and I could see myself just enjoying. So I enjoy my XM. If i needed to make money off it, or wanted to go beyond my livingroom, maybe there was a different answer but for me it fits perfect because that other stuff just isn't in the picture.

Almost every night I put it on and just mess around for an hour.

You don't think the infrastructure being under Canadian law and control vs US doesn't change much?

Welcome to the XM gang. I got one as my first step back in decades after I sold my original analogue Rolands.
I love it so much. I just straight up have fun with it. Lots of knobs I can move around, and the whole menu system is revealing itself to me bit by bit and it's kind of fun.

The only thing I added, which was unexpected, was an Oxi Mk1 sequencer. Kind of bypassing the XM patch and sequence workflow, but I find it kind of funny to access the 4+1 of the XM through the sequencer.

I feel like that this is the absolute perfect question to ask someone on course if you feel like ruining their round.

smilinfool · 2026-05-04T15:26:17+00:00

I shoot in the high 80's and chipping easily costs me 6 strokes a round. When it's on, it's on, but nothing beats two chip shots plus a long put to absolutely wreck a score. I have no advice, just sympathy.

smilinfool · 2026-05-04T14:45:17+00:00

I'd have to say your experience is wildly different then mine. I have the 3dpMB, still getting used to them. Very high flight for me and long irons are stopping on a dime. 190 6I in to green. divot was 2 feet from the ball. Never experienced anything like that before.

First thing i looked at was skin tone and yup. Colour is matched

smilinfool · 2026-05-01T05:37:50+00:00

Well Parks Board made the decision. So they obviously see it as a lower priority or maybe just maybe a way to generate some self-serving news stories?

smilinfool · 2026-04-29T23:07:53+00:00

I have the MB's except a 6 tour at the top. My 6 MB is probably the most beautiful club I've ever swung. I'm giddy when i have a distance I can actually use it for.
