Got outside for the first time over the weekend for a quick 9. VERY inconsistent with my irons, which is normally the better part of my game. Driver was shorter than usual but generally straight, which was great as I was swinging easier in an attempt to find fairways. 5/7 fairways hit. A lot of my mishits were fat, which I'm hoping is a symptom of playing on mats all winter that will go away sooner rather than later. All in all, great day and happy to be getting outside again!

I appreciate how he is willing to go against common practice and truly customize what works best for him. I'm curious if some of what he's learned on the wedges gets carried over to any other irons. Fun read and interesting stuff about how they approached building this club.

Talk to me, Goose! What’s gonna be YOUR ball for 2019???
Angry Yeti replied to PMookie's topic in Golf Balls/Shafts/Grips
Says one of the Hard Rock Challengers... Possibly not the right thread, but it's still about a ball! Has anyone heard anything about the Genius ball OnCore started mentioning in 2017? I feel like they did a few pushes of marketing and interviews and have since gone silent on the topic. This thread and Mookie trying to sort out distances for his new irons had me thinking it'd be helpful if it ever turned into a real product. -

I missed joining in time to see this contest. I have two dozen TF XL collecting dust, count me in if this is taking place. Happy to help with any organizing/logistics if needed. I may ask to borrow my uncles Hammer-X to really drive these rocks out there.

So you think you know how to tie your shoelaces?
Angry Yeti replied to perseveringgolfer's topic in The 19th Hole
Points for creativity to whoever was lacing those up. Reminds me of some of the obscure tie knots people will use. I use the bar lacing on almost all of my dress shoes. I think it looks cleaner -

One should always take their balls seriously. Depending on which Snell you'd be going with, there is a closeout on the MBT Red at the moment. -
I use Grint and think it's a great app. Easy to use and the handicap tracking is convenient. The GPS works well enough, but a few courses I play I'll lose cell service and it's number get wonky. I don't fault the app for that, just something to check if you use the feature. There is the option to download courses ahead of time as well, which is great for getting a birds eye view of the hole and measure distances to hazards.

I ended up with an hour to kill yesterday and happen to be near a golf shop. Off the shelf the Flash Sub Zero does some great work, I can imagine a fitting would only improve results. Thinking about way too many metals/woods/fairway clubs after yesterday. Loving my Cobra F7 3/4 wood so much, I always start with Cobras and work from there. I wasn't recording numbers, but the G410 fairway woods impressed me a lot!

MYGOLFSPY MASTER GOLF BALL REVIEW THREAD
Angry Yeti replied to The Dansome's topic in Member Reviews
I love the Elixr, it's my game ball at the moment, and I agree with you on the logo. It's the second "C" that gets me the most for some reason, and red numbers above the text looks too blocky / stand out-ish (The grey numbers are great by comparison, but I'd be all for a simple black number). I feel like if it was limited to the "O" it'd be more acceptable to my eye. Putting and off the tee I have to align it so I see little to none of the logo/numbers. Beyond the logo, I do like the lines bordering "Elixr" on the side. They've served well for alignment and I no longer have to use a maker to add lines. -
I always enjoy slow play threads and conversations. What people enjoy and hope for when playing 18 can vary so much. It's fun to read. Personally, slow play drives me crazy. I lose my mental rhythm and struggle to finish a round. I don't play Tee times after 7:30am on weekends for this very reason, and will call to ask before playing any weekday rounds. If I have 5-6+ hours to play, I'd rather play 27 holes at a regular pace than sit and wait before every shot. There are a lot of contributing factors to slow play. Ultimately I think the course is responsible for holding people to a pace they find acceptable. If they are OK with 18 holes taking 6 hours, I'll likely take my business elsewhere. They are not obligated to match their rules to my opinions. General human decency should be enough for people to sort things out between themselves on the course. If you're walking slow on the sidewalk, you don't prevent people from passing you. Why would letting someone play through on the golf course be any different. It doesn't always happen, but I find most people pretty reasonable if you approach them nicely.

What are some of your unpopular opinions when it comes to golf?

This is the second worst news I've heard today. The worst was hearing LeBron James involvement with Space Jam 2...
