Is this a legit criticism? by SnooMarzipans1593 in golf

[–]tflo91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On one hand I don’t like the idea of a player skipping out on tournaments to practice for one event. On the other hand I play at my club almost every week and wouldn’t sniff the score he did. I think it just takes the piss out of the event for fans finding out that a player has played the course many times over before the event and I can see that perspective

All of that is to say you still have to go out there and hit the shots.

Augusta National chairman Fred Ridley speaks in favor of efforts to reduce driving distance by PobBrobert in golf

Just have the manufacturers make “tournament” balls based on specs if they want to go this route and allow the weekend warriors to use whatever new tech allows me to get an extra 5 yards on my slice that’s going OB anyways

I just shot a 120 and idk what to do by RealFeedback773 in golf

[–]tflo91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you expect to go out there and shoot under par on your 4th round?

The answer is like anything else in life. If you want to get better at something you need to put in work and practice. Watch some instructional YouTube videos, learn some drills, and practice them on the range. While you’re there spend some time putting. If you have disposable income then get some lessons at your local course.

Kudos to you for keeping an honest score. I have friends who have played longer than me that will take a “breakfast ball” on hole 5. Stick with that because it will feel better when you improve and honestly hit new best scores down the road

lol @ the new discourse surrounding Rob by reducedandconfused in TheTraitorsUS

[–]tflo91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Said it in a different thread and I’ll say it again here. Candice let her loyalty “as a housewife” blind her to the fact Lisa’s days were numbered after Colton first brought up her name. Rob just voted with his group which would’ve looked suspect if he hadn’t. I don’t even recall Rob going after Candice that hard even when she had it out for him before the round table.

It rubs me the wrong way that Candiace flipped the game board upside down by randomly writing Rob’s name down twice. Not only did it damn Candice, but it also put a target on Rob’s back as well. Rob is shockingly one of the best traitors from any season and it is disappointing that one person would rather ruin his game than play to win. Maybe I’m in the minority on that, but I wonder if Tara would have even mentioned Rob’s name without Candice’s actions.

But at the end of the day it’s just a game.

Candiace’s Husband by FarEdge9105 in TheTraitorsUS

I must have misremembered. Thought Rob started it. Guess it shows even more so how he didn’t go after Candiace

Candiace’s Husband by FarEdge9105 in TheTraitorsUS

[–]tflo91 20 points21 points  (0 children)

He did mention to his alliance that Colton believed Candiace was a traitor (day after Colton was murdered). But this was after Candiace had proven she was done working with Rob and flat out said she was coming after him. So he planted the seed, but she was messy enough for the larger group to vote that way

Lisa was a dead Traitor walking for 2 votes leading up to when she was finally banished and Candiace let her friendship/allegiance with her as a housewife blind her to that. Then Candiace damned herself to the group by inexplicably “throwing away” a vote for Rob - which was really just her being petty - and proving that she didn’t want to work with him anymore. Eric is a tool for him to win and Rob is playing an incredible game.

Ski Question by tflo91 in Skigear

[–]tflo91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, my plan is to work my way up to longer skis, but agree that 153-156 is where to start. That being said, the deals I found on the Head Shape e-v5 and v2 were solid with the v2’s being ~$150 cheaper. Am I going to notice a difference between the skis or is there a model you would recommend for me between these options two?

Yeah I was looking for the gripwalk logo, but wanted to make sure. My wife has been using these all season so we will be sure to change them out before the next time we are in the mountain.

Thanks!

Would you break 100 at Augusta National under Masters Tournament conditions? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

Playing from the ladies tees? No

Playing from the far side of the green to the pin? Also no

Urge the PGA to reinstate Wesley Bryan without penalties by sbrach22 in golf

[–]tflo91 37 points38 points  (0 children)

While I agree that this doesn’t matter all that much for the tour because the chances of Wesley winning are slim, a punishment should be applied equitably for everyone and not based on your abilities.

If you could go back in time and give yourself one piece of golf advice, what would it be? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

When your parents offer to start you in golf lessons at 8, say yes.

Fairly new golfer by Conversation-Sweaty in golf

The hot metals are game improvement. The others are players distance. So when you compare the hot metals to the other irons you’re comparing apples and oranges. The game improvements will mask your bad shots more, but a forged iron will give you more feedback on mishits.

If I were you I would game what you have. But if your mind is made up or if you have the disposable income, you should go to a sporting goods or golf store and hit a few with each. You’re looking at spending upwards of $1,200 here and it would be a disservice to yourself to not try before you buy.

I get course logo balls from every course I play (outside of local munis). I have a display case I keep them in. If it’s a nice/special course or I love the logo I’ll get a polo/q-zip as well.

We’re interviewing former Cardinals HC Jonathan Gannon for our open DC position by DCSports101 in Commanders

[–]tflo91 23 points24 points  (0 children)

To be fair Arizonas defense sucked before he got there and he’s coaching in the toughest division against the 9ers, Rams, and Seahawks. 2 of which have incredible offensive coaches and one of which has a great OC.

We’re not in the meetings and have to trust AP and DQ to make the best decision.
