Game Golf Past and Present (June 2021)

Well, it's official, my Live device is no longer a viable option for me as it quits working midway through the round.  I emailed support but they haven't really addressed my issue.  I tried tagging in my phone but i found that really cumbersome to go before each shot.  I still have the classic device somewhere around here so may give that a shot again.

Is the battery just shot?

That's my presumption.

Fairly simple to replace. I will be replacing my second battery pretty soon here. It's puffed and won't hold a charge anymore.

Oh, it can be replaced?  Is there a tutorial somewhere that shows how to do it?

If you have the Live unit with the flat style belt clip, two of the screws will be partially covered so you may have to remove it to get at them. You will have to slide something thin like a tiny flat head screwdriver in between the clip and the body to pry up and release the tab that prevents the clip from sliding off the body.

I like how the author wrote if you don’t know how to solder, you can ruin your device, as if it wasn’t already a shitty paperweight at that point.

It’s not though. It’s just a bad battery; it’ll work once you replace the battery. Far from a paperweight. If you mess it up, so that it won’t work even if you put in a new battery, then you have a paperweight. 😀

Semantics. If you have a dead battery and you don’t know how to replace it or know anyone who does, you effectively have a dead unit.

It’s not. The underlined part is what the author said. The bolder part is what you added. I guess the author assumes that if you don’t know how to do it, then you won’t be stupid by trying to do it and will find someone who can. Like take it to, I dunno, a store, that offers such services.

So, I'm confused, do you need a soldering iron?

Nope. Just follow the battery change instructions.

My last 2 rounds on “Classic” did not upload correctly.  I sent a msg via the “Chat” and have instructions on what to do.  Hoping it works.  Positive is I messaged them on Sunday and had a response Monday morning.  I will report if it works once I do my part of the follow-up.

I can’t blame them if they’re not supporting Classic.

I understand as well but them seem to imply it should be working.  I am pleased they are responding.

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
