When the Masai Mara originally came out, it was $799 and a heckuva good deal for a Benelli clone. Now they're $1799 and up with a sketchy customer service department. For that coin, my choice would just be to get the Benelli. ...

re: Has anyone converted a golf cart to lithium?

I did Plowman’s Riot Kit on my 2016 Yamaha golf cart. I would HIGHLY recommend doing the 48V packs. Do either 100AHr or 200AHr if you really want to go for weeks without having to charge. I started with 4-12V batteries and had all kinds of issues. If you go this route I highly recommend invest...

re: Ping G430 10k Review

Posted by CFDoc on 3/12/24 at 10:53 pm

The 10K MoI thing is a lot of marketing. The USGA put a 5,900 g-cm^2 MoI limit on the rotational (vertical) axis of drivers 20 years ago. So what these 10K MoI claims are doing is increasing the MoI about the horizontal axis and then adding them to the 5,900 maximum to get the 10,000 number. ...

re: LIV officially removes request for OWGR points

Posted by CFDoc on 3/6/24 at 11:46 am

Correct. They’re just gonna have to figure it out. Taking a firm stand that OWGR in its current form is some perfect metric and all new tours should conform exactly to their system to get ranked is ridiculous. Likewise, it’s ridiculous to think liv can just start a tour doing what they want, g...

I could probably write a book on this topic. I’m a STEM PhD that’s been in the hypersonic weapon development community for about 8 years now. It’s a lot more complex than just ending STEM graduate programs and shifting all the burden to industry to do on-the-job training to undergraduates for wha...
