Really have been looking forward to this show for the longest time. It harkens back to the old TOS trek. Reviewers are saying it's better than Disco and Picard. Less dark and violent than Disco. Please be good. Please be good. Paramount+ Thursday.

I'm very much looking forward to this.  I enjoyed season one of Disco, not as much seasons 2 & 3, although I liked the way Pike was portrayed in S2.  I haven't caught up on season four yet.  Picard season one was good, but not enough to make me hurry up to see season two just yet (I also was not in the camp that loved Picard from the various 20th century series of Trek). Similar with Lower Decks.  Not sure how much I want to catch up on, but I'm eager for this.

First episode was pretty good. It's been awhile since I watched the related Disco epiosdes, but I remembered enough. Very much in the vein of old Trek. Wish there were more episodes available upfront.

Finished the season and really enjoyed it. Yeah, it's copying and pasting from previous treks, but what did you expect? You can see the money on the screen. Pacing is great, neither rushed nor lagging. Great casting, great hair casting, and another design of the starship Enterprise. Very rewatchable opening credits.

Really enjoyed watching this.  I thought Pike was the standout best character from Discovery and it’s a really good ensemble cast.   Good update of classic Trek feel.

      Day 8: 12/17/2024 Okay I took my new PPJ swing thought to the range today. I wasn't sure I was quite ready to do so, but I'm glad I did.  When I got it right it was good... really good. When I got it wrong it was a major fail. I hit lots of really ugly ones. But I didn't let that deter me. I stayed committed and focused on the PPJ and I avoided any temptation to go back to what I was doing before just so that I could "look" better at the range. I'm pretty excited about what I saw when I got it right.  I hit the 6 iron mostly (nearly all block work today). I also hit about 6 balls each with the PW, 8I, 5W and Driver. Those had varying degrees of success. I did crack one drive that let me feel and see what the changes will look like once I get fully trained.  Anyway, I'm going to go back to the mirror work for a couple of more days before bringing it back to the range. I do feel like if I can get this right my swing will improve a lot. So I think its worth the effort. I liked the way it looked on GEARs when I get it right, and I like the results I got at the range when I got it right. Now the goal is to work towards getting it right more often.

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      I'm sure you are correct.

      By Ty_Webb ·

      So I think it's that they can't just bend the shaft or hosel to get it to a new lie angle. They adjust that and it changes the weighting, so they have to then adjust all the weights to get it balanced again. I get the impression that it's a bit of an iterative process and they do it all in the US, so they're paying US labor costs to build it and make it work how it's supposed to. Whether you believe in the tech or not, I think that's a true statement.

      Ah, the old EE in the backswing move. Chest going back and staying down doesn't help.

      Extremely outward path with a very closed club face. Maybe unless you have a stupidly weak grip, like right hand way over top, I don't think the grip is necessary highly correlated to this.
