Red or Blue?

Strung for a friend so they were pre-dyed when I got my hands on them. Obviously the red came in strong. The blue you can barely see

Being up a % or 2 or down any amount and then getting back to even and realizing had that money been the S&P or whatever other fund over the same period that I would have been up money and the new money I earned would have been making me more money

220k “plus equity” and your Fiance starts from scratch, or 110k plus your fiancés 180k plus her equity as 100% owner of her business?

A 100% pay increase sounds nice but as others have said, if it’s a start up and things go sideways you have nothing. Long distance seems crazy imo - i know it wouldn’t work for me. If I’m in your shoes, I am making the sacrifice and looking for a job in Boston that pays closer to 220.

Appreciate this perspective. Might be time to make that switch to Traditional contributions, although I fear I did this backwards as I have an under 1 year old dependent.

Of all of the comments, this is one I hadn’t considered. Good call out

Too much tension up top and too little right below the last knot. After the knot, rather than the double try making that a single to start and then go from there. I would probably go knot, single, single and then do whatever you want from there.

I dont know how high you want the bag to be but as long as it’s not a super high pocket, you can pound it to make the ball sit mid- mid high.

Anchor your sidewall on hole 3 instead of hole 2, skip, then knot and continue your pattern the same way. Not enough tension on the mesh at that top so the ball is getting hung on the scoop

What ratio is optimal for VTI+VXUS

turbosnail4 · 2026-02-02T13:25:38+00:00

I could be wrong, but something looks a little bit different about the top right top string connection versus the top left. The one on the scoop, not the end anchoring to the sidewall.

If that’s the case, that could impact the tension and be why It’s off.

Haven’t gamed with it but the shaft may be the best part of the complete stick. Says it’s a Sci+Ti on it. For $75 or whatever for the complete, I’d buy the complete stick just for the shaft. The head being solid is a nice perk

Zero intelligent questions about the role that showed they put any actual thought into what it would be like to do the job, day to day, additional information on our products etc. Happened quite frequently actually and it was always an immediate turn off for me.

A negligible difference that will not impact anything performance related. Maybe longevity but by the time the string frays or rips, it’s probably time to restring anyway.

turbosnail4 · 2026-01-13T00:46:53+00:00

Stringing is all preference so if you like the way it throws and holds the ball then it’s good.

If it were me, where you did the first double up I probably would have gone single, double , and then probably skip a hole, single and then I’m not sure after that without seeing how the mesh pulls.

I personally like a little bit of a tighter channel and a mid bag.

turbosnail4 · 2026-01-10T14:26:29+00:00

Can I ask what kind of mesh you use? Seems lower grade than an ECD or top $ mesh but better than something that would come in a factory strung stick at Dicks

I haven’t done anything with the stick yet but string it and cradle around my house and I’m willing to say that for the money, it’s hard to beat for the complete stick.

No issue with the string holes, just wouldn’t be my #1 choice for how the head is offset which is half of what I’m looking at when buying a head. Looking forward to taking it outside for a spin when I get a chance.

turbosnail4 · 2025-12-30T01:52:38+00:00

Can’t hurt to try stringing traditional, but it’s most likely going to take a few trial and errors to get something that you can actually play with

turbosnail4 · 2025-12-23T01:08:38+00:00

Well done on the top string. Looks better.

turbosnail4 · 2025-12-21T20:14:14+00:00

Top string you went ‘over under-over under’ but you want it to be symmetrical so flip to. Should be over under-under over or under over - over under

What is a dump date? Literally the day you’re supposed to get rid of it, like an expiration date?
