re: Random scene from a movie that has always stuck with you. (eye bug?)

A few scenes from Oh Brother Where Art Thou. Mostly when Clooney wakes up and hollers 'my hair!' For some reason that sticks with me.

I have the full Rhino system in my house. It is worth it IMHO.
Similar to this one but there are more basic options for less $$$. [link=(https://www.amazon.com/Aquasana-Whole-House-Filter-System/dp/B00XAJK52Q?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1)]Amazon - Rhino 10yr system[/link]...
re: Do you ever layup/hit into the rough intentionally for a softer lie?
Posted by TheLSUriot on 4/23/24 at 12:44 pm
I see you replied to me and think I was the second to mention bounce...by a min.
Around Houston and we have the same problem with either very tight lies and/or hard pan even from fairways once summer drys everything out. Switching from a 56/11 to a 56/8 makes a huge difference in making good conta...

Posted by TheLSUriot on 4/23/24 at 8:16 am
I'm surprised no one questioned what bounce you are working with on that wedge. High bounce may not be doing you any favors on tight lies. As I understand it, preventing the leading edge from getting under the ball; very little margin for error. But is buttery out of the fluffy stuff.
Just a though...

Great idea to mention those sites. Especially Destiny Item Manager (DIM) and light.gg.
Accessing your vault from orbit was a needed QoL upgrade but I still use DIM on my phone a lot since you can acquire bounties from any vendor quickly.
Light.gg is my go to when clearing vault space. Just know th...

How do Golf Board posters not know about the wonderful Masters app and website. You don't even have to cast from the app to a TV. Right now I'm using the browser on my smart TV to stream directly.

re: Help with a Sony X950
Posted by TheLSUriot on 4/11/24 at 11:32 am
I decided to replace it and upgrade to a OLED panel. Just in time for the Masters!
$2499 for a 77" LG C3. IMO it was the best deal out there right now as a replacement. Sony is way behind on releasing 2024 models so the A80 is still $3k. So far it is a very nice TV.
But would still appreciate a...

Posted by TheLSUriot on 4/8/24 at 8:01 pm
My Sony XBR75X950H TV went out a few weeks ago. Issue was it would begin the start up process but after about 10 seconds it would shut off. Diagnostics output code was 4 red blinking lights.
I have since performed a hard reset and replaced the power board. The first start up with the new power bo...

It is a $4-5k job to upgrade to solid lifters with cam install.
I'm looking into this because my GM 6.2L has valve chatter at startup. DOD is not active but I guess a hydraulic lifters collapsed anyway. Good luck finding a shop that will pull the heads. No normal shop around here will even take the...

Not going to say it isn't worth it; that is up to you. I have the El Patron in black and it sure is nice at 30X. Got mine when they were around $400; now they are $600. My advise is go with the Patron for half the price of the Presidente and get a second in silverbelly. I recently picked up a Resist...
