Maybe it's a stealth promotional for Milwaukee Tools, anyway, enjoy. No Kirkland? LAME! :-P

I used to get the question several times each month "how do I cut a golf ball in half?"  I always suggested not attempting it, because if you guys knew some of the ways people try to do it, you'd cringe!  They try to use bandsaws, circular saws, hatchets, pocket knives, drills...whatever they happen to have, and it's just a recipe for disaster and losing fingers. 

The method used in the video @nevets88 posted is actually a good way to do it, if you're thinking about it.  This is a quick vid of me using a manual pipe cutter to cut one in half:

    • Not really, no. I don't know the history, what you've worked on, what you've tried and moved away from… etc.
    • Day 9: 2/16/25 Putting through 50 mm gates from 11”. Swing pressure shift drills.
    • Definitely not a favorite… For some reason my wife and I started watching Cobra Kai. I know the original was pretty cheesy, but the inability of these people to get over shit that happened like 30 years ago is astounding. And these kids would be arrested, but they don’t even seem to get suspended from school. Would Danny not notice that Johnny’s son looks like Johnny? Etc.? Why would a completely different dojo that has the same name be “banned”? Oy. Not sure we’ll make it to season 2.
    • Day 139 - 2025-02-16 Weather led to a rescheduled GEARS lesson, so I used the time to work on my swing for 60 minutes or so. All downswing stuff. Some swings at 93 MPH. Most around 75-80.
    • A question I have is…this swing (fade, pull cut) does not  feel as good and easily repeatable as the draw swing we were working on previously.  I’m kinda in a weird spot where I do not know which direction will be the best to pursue. I like seeing a penetrating 5 yard draw but also like the thought of the fade not getting away from me as much.    Any thoughts on that?
