Allow me to be your new best friend......

A few months ago I bought new 3 pack of Foot Joy gloves at Dick's Sporting Goods for $21.99. At the register, they asked if I wanted the new "1 year No Sweat Insurance Policy" for $3.99. Wait...for $4 they're going to replace these when I wear them out?? Seriously? YES, I DO WANT THE INSURANCE!! Fast forward 3 months later and I blow out the thumb on a couple of them. I pull up the insurance policy receipt (super easy registration process by the way!!) and type in the code. Immediately they send me a prepaid return label. I take them to the mail shop and they shove the gloves in an envelope, slap the label on and tell me to "have a nice day". Three days later I get an email telling me my claim has been approved and 4 days later I have a full replacement check for cost plus tax!! Yesterday I just upgraded my glove selection to 2 of the Titleist Cabretta leather gloves ($24 each) and you can bet I bought the $3.99 insurance on both of them!! So now that I made the initial purchase, as long as they continue to offer this insurance I will only be paying $3.99 for my gloves every time one wears out!! And this insurance is on any of the gloves that they sell!

First,  Welcome to TST.   Thanks for sharing.   I, and I'm sure many others, didn't realize that this was an option!

    • This topic can be whatever you'd like it to be. If you're working with an instructor, you may have to mention it occasionally, but people will respect that and you can use this as a diary of sorts.
    • Look at Kevin trying to rationalize his small minority vote. 😄 
    • It's all good, man. I appreciate the discussion.   The hole slopes right, towards the penalty area. That's the part just past the cart path that isn't mowed. You can land a ball on the fairway that ends up in it if the ground is firm enough.  Everything that's brown in the satellite image isn't rough. It's fescue, which even during this time of year is tall enough that just finding a ball in it can be hard. Bunkers might as have red stakes around them - I read that in a book, once. So having set that table, here's what the shot cone looks like if I try to play for what you're suggesting: I just don't see that as the optimal play. I need to get out of there with no worse than 5, not try to make 3 and end up with 6 or more. It's a short hole and my strength is in my iron play. I'm actually oddly not much better from 50-100 yards than I am from 100-150 yards. It's like a 4% difference in green success rate and 8' closer in proximity. I don't see that as worth putting trouble into play off the tee for.
    • Day 137 & 138- Forgot to post yesterday but same thing. Slow,  short swings with short practice club. 
    • I actually did post a video of my swing today. Those are total distances from my Garmin watch. I don't have as good of an idea with my carry distances. I should go to a range with Trackman some day and get them recorded.
