Hope the weather holds out. That’s such a great tournament with a really cool format. Sadly, couldn’t play this year.

Great irons. Work well for a wide variety of handicaps. they have enough launch help that most handicap levels can use them. Pretty long as well but without those hotspots some irons can have, and they are consistent enough in distance and controllable enough that I know quite a few low single digit players who use them

To me, they are as close to a “cannot go too wrong” set as you can get. For any given person, they may not be the absolutely most optimal, but they would probably be reasonable

Played Solmar. Don’t have to stay in any certain property to get on.
Was really enjoyable.

lol
I noticed that as well. I figured it would be worthy of a comment.

There are any number of custom options you can get from hearing aid places.
Cheaper, non - custom fitted options with decent sound quality and good protection:

Otto noise barriers
Peltor eep 100 (or TEP200 but more $$)
Axil

I’ve used Otto and Axil. Like Otto better but they are more expensive.

Landry is technically correct but not practically so. Then practically take the taxpayer burden out of the technical contract. Replyreplies3... up vote5

Here’s the one I replied to. There are several others where you say ‘ it’s in ink’ etc

My point is, it doesn’t say the words ‘ the taxpayers are responsible’ so that cannot be taken out.

It’s just that if you ask an attorney who is responsible for the buyout and then you go down the entire cascade you eventually arrive at the taxpayer because LSU is a state entity.

LSU is the responsible party. LSU has many sources of funding but in the end, in a total Armageddon, the final rung in the ladder is the state, i.e. the taxpayers.

But, here’s the kicker. We are discussing buyout.
In the scenario that this would reach that far down the ladder of responsibility— just don’t fire the guy!!
Then there’s no buyout. And if the boosters don’t pay, the athletic department has gone insolvent, the university has gone insolvent, and the state has gone insolvent — losing football games won’t be the biggest issue.

The contract between a coach and a university is, and always will be, between the coach and the university.

That makes the university ultimately responsible

If it is a state university, that makes the taxpayers ultimately responsible

This is every coaching contract, and every university employee contract, and is not alterable unless you want to have a major booster hire the Coach directly as a personal employee. It is not alterable because the coach WORKS FOR THE UNIVERSITY.


However, university leaders will go out into the community and solicit donations to cover the cost of the Coach or the cost of the buyout.

If donors are unwilling to donate said funds, the coach will simply not be hired or fired. And to be honest, if donors are not willing to pony up the money for the hire buyout, maybe there is not enough consensus that the coach should be hired/fired in any event.

So, therefore, the taxpayer is “technically” responsible ( just like they are responsible for every other employee of any state university), but there is not a reasonable scenario where they would ever actually have to come up with the money.

Otto noise barriers.
Have the Axil. Like these better. Little more, but not up in the custom fit range. Can use many different types of comm tips.

Yeah, he should have named names, but also should have chastised the media to their faces over it instead of running from them. Basically been like it was these shite heads that leaked it and they should be dealt with, but you as the media are being disingenuous for blowing this out of proportion. Being however many whatever measurement out of conformity results in a very negligible result. Here's a TaylorMade rep to explain it for you clowns. If you already knew this, and still reported it, this is why nobody likes your profession. If you didn't know this and reported it, why are you even allowed in this room?

Hell yes!!

I do not know why more athletes/politician/public figures do not do this. It would be fantastically entertaining and would also stop all the half-truth BS clickbait crap that goes on.

Bayou Barriere GC in Belle Chasse

27 holes. We used to play there while the Belle Chase Air Show was going on. The planes would make turns over the course and hit the gas to get back into formation over the airbase. Was always a unique day on the course!
