Man, a box of new golf clubs on a porch gives me severe anxiety (I live in an area with tons of package theft).

Boxes on the porch give me anxiety, too, but we haven't had a problem with porch pirates around here, that I know of.  Besides: Our house, in particular, is 100 feet off the road, the porch is in clear view from not less than five neighbors' homes, and I've two clearly visible surveillance cameras covering the approach and porch.  So probably not an issue ;)

My home is up on a hillside where everyone can see packages on my front steps.  So I instruct UPS, FedEx and USPS to leave packages on my side patio, out of sight.

But if it's golf clubs, I'll usually go out and find the truck and ask for my package prior to them arriving at my house.  I'm sure they love that.  Actually, one time, I found the UPS truck, a mile away (you can follow the truck's progress online, like with Uber) and requested my new Epic Flash driver.  Andrew was driving, my favorite watering hole bartender!  It was a reunion.

And I was at the range with the new driver about 4 hours early.

I usually have golf clubs sent to the FedEx or UPS pickup location, or just sent directly to the fitter. I've never had a package stolen, but it is not uncommon in my neighborhood, even with all the home security cameras that houses have now.

I'm fortunate to live at the end of a dead end, so there is no straight through getaway path for porch pirates, which I think makes my block less afflicted.

Nice looking clubs @Lugowskins! Glad they made it to you safely.

I get that, it made me a little nervous thinking about it just because of how much I spent and how long I waited but honestly I am in such a remote area and have good neighbors the chances of something getting snatched are pretty low.

    • I honestly believe if they play longer tees by 300-400 yards, closer to or over 7,000 yards, more rough, tougher greens, women's golf will become much more gripping.  BTW, if it weren't for Scottie killing it right now, men's golf isn't exactly compelling.
    • Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.
    • Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.
    • Oh yea, now I remember reading about you on TMZ!
