I just noticed the "member reviewer" badge -- how active do I have to be?  I did a few, but it's been about a year since my last one.  I think? I'm still eligible.

We revised that a little since we lost the previous Member Reviews in the transition.

I have broke 80 and have had a couple of eagles.

I shot a 78 today, but I am DQing myself from the award since the course is only a par 67. If I ever shoot +7, I will claim it. I will claim the Eagle award though and the TST Outing Organizer and Participant awards for putting together a few gatherings in Dayton. 

Edit - I suppose I can claim breaking 90.

Gave you the "Breaking 90" one. Gave you the Eagle one.

The TST Outing Organizer one (and the Participant one) require at least four people who previously hadn't met. You met those criteria?

Milestone round for me today. 77 (36-41). First time breaking 80. Previous best was an 82. Still a little in shock. 

I awarded you the "Broke 80" Achievement, @baw1.

That's a good question. I put one together with @missitnoonan, @saevel25, @Jeremie Boop, @mcanadiens and myself. I think Jeremie, Matt and I had played together, but I think that was the first time William and Billy had played with the others. It's up to you whether that counts.

Are you?

For a member who not only plays in but organizes a TST Outing consisting of at least four members who had not previously met.

None of you had met before?

I'm glad you guys had fun. But the "outing" badge is, ideally, for something a bit "more."

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
