  1. I play in a charity scramble every year where instead of going off of total score to determine a winner they award a portion of the entry pot for every skin won. Every par 5 is eagled and all of the 3s and 4s are birdied so it takes something incredible to win a skin. The club has a 'hole monitor' camped out around each green to watch the shots coming in and mark the score for each group for their hole. About 4 years ago a friend of mine jarred a 7-iron on a long par 4 for eagle. We won the only skin that year, and the prize money went towards the range finder I still use today.
  2. Golf Subpar is great. It's my go-to podcast for when my most recent Audible book is finished before I get my next credit.
  3. Which LM do you use? My GCQuad will be here in a month so I'm still using my GC2. I haven't downloaded GSPro- will look into it!

    Golf Wife?

    Assume you're able to "Weird Science" your significant other and can choose only one of the following traits- which are you going with?
  5. I voted 3w/hybrid. The course I play most often has one par 4 that is 445y and routinely into the wind. I love the challenge of this hole as there are a few other very short par 4s to make up for it. I don't mind having one of two holes like this per round. Confidence wise I love my 2i and enjoy hitting it, but then my confidence wavers until I get back to my 6 iron or less.
  6. PGA2K21 is good. I play it on the PS4.
  7. Nice wheels! I've been contemplating purchasing something along these lines. What other carts did you mostly consider?
  8. How are the new sticks treating you?
  9. I recently voiced the same concern as the OP to a friend of mine and they pointed me towards this article linked below. I loath my perceived lack of consistency, but the article suggests that scoring consistency is a bit of a myth. The Consistent Scoring Myth | Golf Lessons Houston TX - Royal Oaks Country Club Every week I meet players who complain to me about their lack of scoring consistency.

  10. Realized when writing my "Have you Improved This Year" post that I can finally claim the under par badge!
  11. I answered yes and yes. I shot my lowest round ever (and first under par) in 2020. My average (against GHIN differential) dropped almost 3 full strokes and my handicap dipped below 5 for the first time ever. After building a golf simulator in my garage last winter my ball striking has continued to improve and I see no reason for that to stop in 2021. I am also signed up for the Super Speed program / challenge here in the forums in an effort to get back to my pre-shoulder surgery distance of 2019.
  12. I only use a tee if the teeing ground is chewed up and worse than a nice fairway lie.
  13. I'm in! I have the Speed Sticks and the Swing Speed Radar (along with a Mevo and Mevo+ (slight golf obsession here)). I'll get my initial speed later tonight- I'm working late since I'll be volunteering at the Houston Open Thurs-Sun.
  14. Congrats on the low 9! Do you have one of the Garmin golf watches? I have the S62 myself and love it. I added the club sensor to my putter and really like not having to enter my putts now.
