Being on a college budget I'm normally not drinking anything near top shelf.

Tuesday's and Thursday's are dollar wells and domestic bottles so I'm usually out at least 2 nights a week.

But when I'm buying from the store I try to get Red Stag Black Cherry.  But if I have to I settle for a fifth of Evan.

Field Of Dreams Absinthe. Guy I know makes this on his wine farm as a side project. If there's a more effective liquid panty remover in existence, I've never (ahem) come across it.

Don't get too caught up on price right away; there is an abundance of great small-batch bourbons in the $25-50 range. I would recommend anything released by the Buffalo Trace and Four Roses distilleri

From the winery attached to the course. Convenient.

There are much better things available than Red Stag or Evan in the same price range. Bought a bottle of Glen Moray 10 for $29 on Saturday. One of the best values I've found.

Evan for $10?  I like it more than Old Crow and Calvert. Red Stag I enjoy that usually runs $18 or so but I'm sure I could possibly find better.  Any recommendations?

When it comes to bourbon/whiskey (or any liquor really), it depends on your intentions.

If you wish to mix it, buy cheap. If you wish to drink it, go for the better stuff. (Was my Dad's golden rule)

For instance, if we're drinking whiskey and cokes, I'm buying Kentucky Gentleman at $14 a handle. But if we're drinking whiskey on the rocks, I'm picking up a bottle of Jameson or Dancing Pines (local distillery in Colorado, they also make the BEST spiced rum I've ever had). Eagle Rare is another good whiskey, but I typically have to have a few mixed ones before drinking it on the rocks.

Yeah, for the dollar wells i go with the domestic bottles for my first few drinks so it's not as bad tasting whiskey the rest of the night.

Old Fitz 100 proof, W.L. Weller Special Reserve, George Dickel No. 8 -- all worthwhile at $15 to $20.

After my round of golf yesterday I meant to post this.  After nine holes with my buddy we went to a local Irish pub where they have a ton of beers on tap.  We were fortunate enough to have Zombie Dust by 3 Floyds.  I'm wondering if a few of you have had the chance to try this semi-rare beer.  Probably one of the best I've ever had.

Note that I actually did a Google image search for "BMW International Open" to make sure this photo was legit. In fact, here was another photo from the same ceremony:

A Batch 19 lager and two gin and tonics tonight. For once, I got the ratio right building them up.

I'm assuming the dollar wells are at the ballyhoo and party cask III is the store of choice, go trees

Sierra Nevada summerfest, great after a 12 hr shift

Can never go wrong with any of Sierra Nevada's offerings, tho I rarely stray from there pale ale. IMO best beer on the planet.

The name of this place escapes me but glad to hear they are still in business. That place took alot of my $$.

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
