Hell no, you are interfering with the brainless song in my head. Actually what I do hate is some jerk 2 fairways over playing their music so loud I can hear it. If you want music show respect for others on the course, not everyone wants to play with your crap choice in music.

Should your handicap dictate your tee box selection?
Albatrossx4 replied to Rob Person's topic in Breaking News and Debate
I used to play in a group where we played the tips almost everywhere, and could play in less than 4 hours, we had a range of ages and handicaps. Pace of play has nothing to do with ability, and everything to do with awareness of how to play and not waste time. You are not a touring pro, you do not need to mark every putt walk around the green 3 times, do aim point every 2 ft. You can get out of the cart and walk to your ball. In the end, play the tees that you enjoy, if you can get the ball out there and reach par 4's from the tips, fine, but why beat yourself up if you can not. -

The only system I know of that works with foam balls is Optishot, since it only measures the clubhead. Foam balls still are loud, but a different sound than real balls. Some systems might work with almost golf, but I have no idea what they sound like.

This company must have the absolute worst customer service in the industry. I have an SL1 hybrid range finder, it has gps, laser and green slopes. I had a issue with the display blinking the company logo when the gps function was not active. I contacted VC, because this caused the battery to run down. It took a week of constantly recharging, when I tried holding the on off button down for nearly a minute (was supposed to turn off in 10 seconds)(this in general solved the problem, but I wanted it fixed) finally a couple more weeks and I get an email from support, telling me to reset the unit and how to do it. Well I reset it alright, right into laser mode only, the display no longer works. I have sent several emails, contacted BBB and even on facebook and nothing to help me. There are several others who have posted their lack of support. I would not recommend buying any of their products. On the other hand Shot Scope has been wonderful in their support, I would recommend their products highly.

MyGolfSpy 2023 Golf Ball Test!!!
Albatrossx4 replied to GolfSpy SAM's topic in Golf Balls/Shafts/Grips
Combine the quality testing with the performance testing. There should be one complete place to see how the balls compare. Add the Oncore line -
Mizuno caught red handed! Anyone else have recent build issues?
Albatrossx4 replied to Lenge13's topic in General Q&A
The butt end of the shaft has no bearing on the performance of the club, that is why every other shaft is trimmed from the butt to make the proper length for the club. The only thing KBS does, is precut the length for the clubs before they ship them, they do not make a different shaft for every club. ( then they would have to make every club in every possible length option, come on, nobody would do that) What your issue might be is a different flex, kick point than what you ordered -

Total BS, This certainly does not take into account the rating, length or anything else. Sure as around a 5 or 6, playing a tour course under tour conditions I probably would never have broken 70, but as a blanket statement BS, I have shot as low as 62, and regularly break 70 during a season. (my 62 was on a shorter course where I consider my personal par 67) But over my life have broken 70 from the tips at near 7000 yds , the regular tees and now the senior tees.

OnCore ELIXR Golf Ball - 2023 Forum Review
Albatrossx4 replied to GolfSpy_APH's topic in Forum Testing Reviews
I moved away from the over priced Titleists after the Pro Traj, there was nothing I loved, several years ago, with Cut, Snell, and now Oncore, The Snell's are made by the man who started the Pro v1, and the Oncores are every bit as good as the Snell's -

How many sets of clubs have you owned in your lifetime
Albatrossx4 replied to Pvicary's topic in General Q&A
If you can count them you are not trying hard enough. My first was a 5 iron and I was no more than 5 yrs old with it, oh unless you count the plastic heads and aluminum shaft clubs I had at my grand parents, ( had to get steel shafts I hit them so much) -
Again are you going to quit if the ball goes a little shorter, or are you going to learn how to hit it better.
