    As a long suffering Giants fan, I'm over here thinking about buying a Darren Waller jersey. They know how to get my hopes up, also how to dash them. We'll see how it works out. I like their off-season.

    I am one Raiders fan that is not in the least upset with dealing Darren Waller. Maybe he will ball out for your team. He had two successful seasons with the Raiders... 3 and 4 years ago. I personally feel like he quit on his team the last two years. He was more interested in rapping than playing football. I hope he plays well for you. I'm happy to be rid of a player that pretty much made it known he didn't care about winning.

    As of right now there won’t be a need to switch because it’s a MLR and there will still be the current balls to play for recreational golfers

    Recreational golfers: read that.... 99% of ALL golfers in the world. Without all of us recreational golfers, the sport/game would not exist. All of this nonsense over rolling back the ball and whatever else nonsense the "powers that be" come up with for 1% of golfers in the world is just complete nonsense.

    If you think someone wont notice a 10 year loss in distance especially when it goes from 200 to 190 you are fooling yourself. Everyone can tell when they have lost distance for whatever reason especially those who play the same course week in and week out. When they have to take an extra club on approach shots compared to what they are used to it’s very noticeable.

    I can personally attest to this being a fact.

    As a die hard Buckeyes fan........... Fields was great for us. I knew he would not be a good NFL QB. I still think this. He was predominately a running QB in college, as are most Buckeye QB's these days... with the exception of Stroud, who I think will be a good NFL QB.

    Fields will be a great back up (#2) QB for any team he's on, but he isn't a starting QB in the NFL.

    I was out all day delivering and picking up furniture in the sleet and snow. Came home, fed and walked my 120 lb. AmBull, took a hot shower......... Poured myself a Talisker 10 Scotch and thought.... who have I not listened to in a long time? Then.... King's X came to me.

    I LOVE this band. So................

    ... Why ask a question if you are just gonna answer it? 🤪

    ... "Muscle mass decreases approximately 3–8% per decade after the age of 30 and this rate of decline is even higher after the age of 60 [4,5]. This involuntary loss of muscle mass, strength, and function is a fundamental cause of and contributor to disability in older people".

    I know. It was more of a tongue in cheek/rhetorical question.😁

    I think most of us north of 60 never thought it would happen... at least not so suddenly. You still feel good, but you just can't get it out there. It's like one season I was still hitting it as far as I always did, and the next it was like someone flipped a switch and It was gone...lol. I'm not ready to be old... yet.  😂

    I'm currently 25, so this is a super interesting forum.

    At the minute I try to swing easy, always 80 or so percent, always just trying to hit fairways and greens. I'm still able to usually poke it 280 or so, but I don't know, I've just always enjoyed the look of Els and Couples, not young Tiger or Bryson.  But I do wonder what would happen if i commit to going full tilt, I just don't like the idea of playing a fairway over.

    Love the opportunity to learn from those who have been around the game for years, even decades! 

    That is some great history. I have the same "problem" with the long swing. I still can't understand why I can't hit the ball as far as I used to. I am definitely older.... but, nothing feels different out on the course, other than the damn ball just won't go as far. WHY!? I don't feel any different. I still have the same clubs. Why does the ball go 10 - 15  yards shorter??? It doesn't matter how hard I swing, it just won't go as far as it used to. I really wish someone could explain why?

     

    edit: this was a reply to funkyjudge. I have no idea how it ended up here. chalk it up to more unknown s**t from getting old...lol.
