I'm a little late to the thread here, but I've been using the Belroy since 2019 and I really like it.

Two credit cards, my bank card, and driver's license fit in the back of my phone's Jimmy Case. My wife tucks $20 bill in hers, but I like to carry lots of cash, so I keep the money clip in my front pocket.

Library card and grocery loyalty cards are on the keychain.

I must be too old for most of those wallets.   

I have :

Drivers License

3 medical cards

Costco / AAA / AARP

2 credit cards / 1 debit card  (golf courses are now charging 4% to use a credit card)

University of Michigan gym pass

I still like to keep about $40 cash in my wallet, too.

 

I guess the added weight is helping strengthen my legs!

My dad's wallet was so thick back in the day it is amazing he didn't have back problems sitting on that thing all day. We all had like a dozen photos in our wallets.

While mine isn't like that, on a long trip, I do remove my wallet from my back pocket.

That looks exactly like my dad's old wallet. It would amaze me that he could sit on that all day, as you said. Those wallets took some abuse..

Just curious, @iacas, which one did you end up going with?

I got both, but the Bellroy is in my pocket, while the Ridge is in my office holding a few debit cards I almost never use in person (and my PSU ID, and another card I can't quite remember right now).

    • Day 37, June 10.  Today was primarily WFH, so I had several practice sessions (indoors, off a mat, into the net).  At least one each of U, 9, and 6-iron full swings with the usual priority.   I also tried a few times a putting type stroke with my 4H, as something I should probably learn how to hit (and what it does), but the mechanical shot at home off a mat doesn't tell me much of what it's doing.  That's something I should probably try on a real green, not during a round until I've tried it.
    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
