How do people that wear these expect us to listen to anything they say?

Because we arent shorties that have 4 feet of extra fabric for all that bullshite. You look up to us by nature.

I saw mine trying to hit with my clubs one day. He was about 9 as well. So got him a used set of kids clubs.

Just gave him a few fundamantals and we'd play yard golf. Lay out a course around your house and use whiffle balls (also more forgiving if you hit it fat or thin). You have to be within a club length of the "hole" (tree, lawnmower, bush, whatever) concrete is water. Id handicap him strokes and we'd just go out an have fun. Kids will play on their own and figure it out if its fun. Dude was going out and practicing so he could beat me.

He's 11 now and makes great contact. He did first tee for a few weeks before we moved and was outhitting all but a couple kids. Just from smacking around whiffle balls.

We played Beaver Creek and he did pretty dang good from the red tees. Shot a 57 on the front nine. Respectable for his first half round of golf. After he hit a shot Id hit my shot as close to his ball as I could (iron practice for me). That way we werent all over course and could keep play moving. Kid had some nice shots. His putting was where he really needed work. Like all of us, lol.

Episode 2.is definitley worth the watch. Holy shite that was good.

We have rules here.

Dicks "House of Sport". They have a pro that works there. He also solved my driver slice in one lesson.

Data was from Trackman. Im a 17.2 handicap, definitely won't see me on tour! I was horrid at driving (short with a massive slice), took lessons, got consistent and then went in for a fitting.

1st two times on course I really struggled hooking it up. Tons of pull left and hard hooks. Driving range, everything was perfect. I think I was trying to impress and just swung too hard.

Then last week I concentrated on the feel at the range and replicated that feel at Tamahka. Hit all but one Fairway, lost zero balls, and for the first time in forever, had the longest drive in our foursome (when all four of us actuall hit a good shot). It was glorious. I LOVE this driver. I was going to be extremely happy with +15 yards! +35 yards, hellz ya. Need to work on my irons now.

Mavis Tire

Absolute shite. Bought Michelins from them, had the tread peal off one tire. Brought the tire back to Mavis to be replaced under warranty and they said I had to fill out a bunch of shite online and have Michelin send me the money.

Called Discount Tire, they said to bring it over and they'd warranty it even though I didn't buy it from them. Been going to Discount ever since.

Mavis is the Taco Bell to Discount being the Chick-Fil-A of tires. In my experience.

People fricking suck.

Going to try these on my economy Stratas. I am at the limits of an XL glove but not quite an XXL. Curious how a midsize grip feels compared to standard. 39 bucks for 13 is an inexpensive lesson to learn if I need to go up a size.

Slightly more expensive option (80 bucks) is the Gooloo 4000. Dont need another car. Love that thing. Works great. See project farm for a review on youtube.
