Ok Everyone Fasten your Seatbelts. The CDC(Center for Disease Control) has officially issued its Zombie Apocalypse emergency situation plan. Its basically no different than the "Hurricane/Earthquake" plans ( I mean they didnt even advise buying Chainsaws, Swords, Shotguns and #1 most important thing DONT GET BITTEN)

But I digress, For some reason I have always felt if the world ends its 100% going to be a Zombie Apocalypse. Now the CDC even agrees with me and puts out a plan to react to such a catastrophe. My question is what do you guys think? What would you do in the event of a real life "28 days later". Ive had my plan in place for years and it involves a friend with a basement literally full of whiskey and another who is a firearms collector.

Am I just crazy? Discuss....

Damn lol. I thought I'd get some response to my lame sarcasm and the fact that our gvt is literally paying to research this stuff.

For a brief moment I thought this was going to be a "the item to your left" thread and I got excited. Now I feel sad that it's being researched as it either means there's a distinct possibility of it or your government are as mad as ours.:(

Is this one of those thread games where someone says something and people keep adding to it to make a story?

Kinda(ish). I posted it in the Grill Room after your thread reminded me of it. :)

I was watching a show on designer virus research for military use/defense and apparently it doesn’t seem to far off that a highly contagious virus (obviously we’re all familiar w/C-19) with all sorts of deadly effects could hit the world.  Without calling it a “zombie virus” that they were pumping it up to be in the show, it seems not so far fetched that we could see something like this in our lifetime. Question is: how many of you have/plan to have some sort of underground bunker? This guy in Texas has a factory that makes them for folks and it’s becoming more popular. I just found it interesting. Plus, I need to know whose place I need to run to when the time comes 😊

Seems reasonable - at least you can still work on the COVID 19 drills :-)

If COVID-19 has taught us anything, we’re all completely f***ed if a zombie apocalypse begins because there’s going to be a significant percentage of the population that won’t take it seriously.

They can scream “fake zombies” as they’re being eaten, then.

And just like COVID, the deniers would only make the zombie threat more dangerous for those who do take it seriously.

But no bunkers for either of you so far? And C-19 hasn’t created any recent interest? C’mon guys, where am I gonna go? I don’t foresee my  HOA allowing me to install one on my little 1/2 acre lot!

I believe what the world really fears is the inevitable ‘ Shankapocalypse.’

I get the occasional bout of that myself on the range, but thankfully seems to be self-limiting and non-transmissible.

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By M2R · Posted

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
