Honestly, I think Phil is feeling the same thing as HV3. He's a guy who has always been beloved by both die hard & casual golf fans, regardless of his indiscretions. I think the weight of being the villain in all of this has messed with his confidence, something "FIGJAM" has never lacked.

Off the diet for a couple days. Homemade lobster ravioli in a brandy cream sauce.

I watched for a couple hours yesterday and enjoyed it. Seeing Wolf's hole in one live was cool! There were a lot balls on par 3's & 4's that threatened the cup all day, some good shotmaking. Watched a little of the repeat of the KF Tour last night and that guy driving the 370 yard hole on the fly was sick!

Hear me out. What if we are all being punked and all of this is a set-up for the biggest annual PPV event EVER?

Dinner last night was pizza stuffed red peppers. I used the my diet sauce recipe which is really one of the best sauces, keto or not, I have ever tasted! https://everydayshortcuts.com/keto-pizza-stuffed-peppers/

Just had my annual wellness exam and had some pretty positive results. Weight was down 5 lbs from last year and my blood pressure & cholesterol levels were significantly lower. My good cholesterol (HDL) went up by over 10 points to 85! Big Labor Day weekend with some entertaining and off the diet for a few days so expect to add a couple lbs, but will get back on the diet Tuesday.

Congrats to the newly appointed mods and I'll give you the same advice I gave to the last hired mod, and you best abide, don't block me Bros!

I saw that older Rory & DJ TM ad during the playoffs a number of times and wondered if TM was using it as a test balloon for DJ & LIV.

I think this is an important point that gets lost in the shuffle. There are so many biased overstated sources for golf reviews, including the OEM's own advertising. Seeing the results from average golfers use these products and the ability to ask questions about how the product performed under normal conditions are the most important purchase decisions for me. I bought the Rapsodo launch monitor after reading the testing reviews here and asking numerous questions of the testers! IMHO, these are points that HQ should be selling to OEMs as important attributes to increasing sales.

OMG I wish I could like this 100 times!! There has never been a club put in Pete Pappas' hand that wasn't better than the previous year's model!

Makai!

Second TXG.

Used the leftover crab to make a keto fathead pizza. Crab, bacon, green & jalapeño peppers over a keto garlic cream sauce. It was pretty damn good! https://www.awayfromthebox.com/homemade-bacon-and-crab-pizza/

Dinner last night was a small charcuterie platter and these keto crab rangoons. This recipe uses the Fathead pizza dough to make the shells. My wife, who is a crab rangoon connoisseur loved them. I would add a little more worcestershire sauce to the filling for a little more tanginess. https://stepawayfromthecarbs.com/low-carb-crab-rangoon/

@Parshooter36 Made a keto version of Pad Thai last night using the miracle noodles and I thought they were pretty good. They don't taste much different than the typical cellophane noodles I normally use to make the dish,

And another!

Bridgestone has at least one of their ball manufacturing plants, and their US headquarters, right up the road in Covington, GA.

I'm with @tommc23, in order for BH to be relevant again it needs to be sold off to a manufacturer who is totally committed and passionate about reestablishing the brand. Companies like New Level & Sub70 have proven that fully committed passion can compete against the big OEMs. But another franchisee taking a quick swing is going to lead to another miss and add more tarnish to the brand.

Not really keto, but we got some really lovely peaches and decided to make this field greens salad with heirloom tomatoes, burrata, pomegranate arils and basil. Fantastic! I think it would be even better if we had grilled the peaches.

Yet another DTC ball company. It's a NO from me dawg.

YES!

I just found these noodles that have ZERO carbs! Any noodles are verboten on a low carb diet so this brings back a lot of old recipes into the diet. Going to try to make a keto Pad Thai with them soon.

Seven is a company that isn't well known and they make some beautiful clubs, but they are clearly for the more money than brains crowd. $3,900 putters? SMDH!

I keep seeing teasers on instagram for new MLA models, but no idea if, and when, they'll come out. It seems like every day there is a new DTC ball company in my social feeds, Piper seems to be making a lot of noise lately.

Saw this one the other day. Totally customized putters with interchangeable shafts/necks, and the company is crowdfunded. Crazy idea and expensive, but cool looking putters with a lot of innovation. https://machinestarter.com/
