Me, not so much - my wife & I started playing at the same time & she looks forward to our weekend golf as much as I do  ... I'd recommend it

Absolutely. I have no reason not to be.

golf is more like my mistress - I sneak out to be with her when I can, I don't (always) tell my wife, and I don't care if she can make me a sandwich.

note: the thread made me think of this video

My wife and I are expecting our first so I'm playing at least twice a week. I'm trying to get as much playing time as I can because I'lll be divorcing golf soon with only occasional weekend visitation rights.

I honestly did not even notice that.  You should make the text a different color or something so it is more noticeable.

Why don't you just lock them?

Locking isn't a feature we have yet (for auto-generated threads), and the fonts in signatures can only be that color.

"... time essentially wasted". Pardon? Methinks the poor chap's wife has gotten to him! My rejoinder would be (not that I ever have to justify myself in this regard you understand), "but daahling, you knew about my obsession on that happy day we were wed." Then, "dearest, take this and buy yourself another pair of shoes." p.s. I didn't notice the link in the OP either - only after reading Erik's post. But then again I can't follow my own drives any more. And it's not because I've gotten longer. Sigh.

Ah okay. I think people are just so use to skipping over signatures that they don't even notice it.

Maybe no one read the article but thought the question was a interesting enough subject to comment on. I did comment on the the article after I saw the note.

easy answer is that I don't look at signatures, in fact, I turn them off on boards that allow it.

(sorry for putting another post in this thread that was asking for no post)

Is it such a bad thing? I never read the articles but I always read the forums.

    • The MTB Prime and Prime X had issues with the cover being too soft and getting cut too easily. They said it was more prevalent in the Prime than the Prime X which I found odd because that was the exact opposite of my experience.
    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
