re: Cambrian Ridge, best 9s

Posted by rouxtab on 9/14/23 at 9:33 am
Canyon is pretty darn difficult, but cool to look at with all the elevation changes. Hole 4 was goofy hard off the tee with just no options at all besides a perfect tee shot. Hole 6 is pretty tough as well....
Does anyone think Gallman can take Mike Davis' role and make something of it? Gallman was pretty awesome in an equally shotty offense last year as a runner toward the end of the season...

re: Chrome soft golf ball

Posted by rouxtab on 8/13/21 at 8:44 am
Found a Chrome Soft X the other day and after chipping with it I thought it might be a defected or refurbished ball painted to look like a Chrome Soft; sounds absurdly clicky. ProV1x, Z Star XV, and especially TP5x sound or feel clicky to a degree, but nothing like that ball. If you want to ...

Sorry to Hijack, but has English Turn improved?...
This article from Thefriedegg on how courses can discourage bomb and gouge was super interesting. I'm not sure if I completely agree with his assessment of the 30-60 yard shots and the ball's effect on their spin, but thought the article brought other great points nonetheless https://thefriedegg...

re: Push cart vs carry bag

Posted by rouxtab on 1/14/21 at 9:05 am
Push cart 1000% Pros: -Less taxing on your body (if only for 9 holes or less it becomes more of a debate but for 18 it's a no doubter) -Gives you more opportunities to walk without being miserable (if it's 100* I'm in the cart anyway but for that buffer temperature zone between cool and hot ...
Someone help me sleep better Std scoring David Montgomery or Gallman Just have this feeling Montgomery comes home with 55 yds and 15 receiving yards no TDs.. Then can anyone make the case for JuJu over Diontae Johnson? Do we know for certain that the Cincy No. 1 CB is covering Diontae? ...

re: Where to find my distances around BR

Posted by rouxtab on 10/22/20 at 9:39 am
Got a TecTec a few years ago, fairly inexpensive as far as rangefinders go (most likely could get it for cheaper than the link below if you look somewhat hard) and it works very well until about 275 yds for pins then you may need a bigger target than the flag to laser after that (never matters for m...

re: Logo Madness (BR edition)

Posted by rouxtab on 9/16/20 at 3:36 pm
The BRCC one is sweet though, deserves an exception from the hate list Carter Plantation's could be decent if it wasn't so filled with color, maybe if the gold and the white swapped roles...

re: Golf Balls

Posted by rouxtab on 9/12/20 at 6:54 pm
If you’re looking to save a few bucks but get similar characteristics as the premium balls, Taylormade Project A balls are sweet. Super high wedge spin, and very similar long game characteristics as TP5. Rick Shiels did a video and said it might as well be part of the TP5/TP5x line. Bridgeston...

Seems like its the perfect course to tee off around 5:30 after work but I haven't seen any times later than 2:00 since I've been paying attention, didn't know if this is covid related or just the standard...
