Most likely but that makes Chop’s out of the way. :lol:

Teddy should take him back to his roots for a 6hr round at Vieux chene

Call of Duty Kill confirmed. Watched all 6 last night. I enjoyed it a lot, but I also pretty much like anything feudal Japan. It’s wild how fast their civilization was brought into the modern age after the Meiji restoration.

Mo was living in a grey area the whole tournament. The creek ball, the running to mark his partners putt that was barely stopped, the range finder(which was definitely reading slope). Running down to the greens on the par 3 course telling Paige where to aim etc. I mean I get it that’s a lot of money on the line but damn bro there are 75 cameras and a whole caravan of people following you.

3 person alternate shot like the par 3 was I believe.

That was what I use to do too, but figured out that was hurting my game with the wedges. Game improved slightly after that but consistency suffered some rounds.

---

I’m up for trying anything. I made a triple on a hole today that I was only 60yds out on after my tee shot. :lol:

Bomb,shank, blast across the green, duff,good chip, two putt. Couldn’t decide if I should cry or laugh.

Have you experimented with a longer shaft

I have not. I generally go the complete opposite direction and choke way down if I’m up close around the green.

As the season winds down I’ve come to the realization that I have got to do something about my pathetic green side game over the winter. I’m bleeding strokes like a stuck pig inside of 30 yards. I’ve experimented with almost every style of chipping the internet offers this summer(probably why I’ve developed no consistency) and have yet to find a style that really clicks. My local track is predominantly elevated greens so just bumping and running something up only really works from the front. Beginning of the summer I was actually chipping really well and for almost two months was averaging one chip in a round. But like Icarus I flew to close to the sun and now I chip like I have epilepsy.
What are some tips or tricks that have helped y’all’s short games the most. Because if I duff another chip short of the green I’m liable to commit seppuku.

InB4 *hit more GIR.

*Update if Anyone cares

Ups delivered my 17° UW I ordered from Callaway preowned to test. Unfortunately they didn’t send me the first Gen version I ordered and instead sent the 2024 model that isn’t as highly regarded. Initial testing shows good ball speed(average of 155) and a mid launch that falls between a hybrid and my 3w that I hit to low. Spin rate in the mid 3000s. Ball wasn’t carrying as far as I would have expected on my launch monitor so that was a little disappointing but I walked outside and tee’d one up to hit out over my pond into about a 15mph wind directly into my face. It cut through the wind extremely well while steadily gaining height as it disappeared. If it flys like that on the course I’ll find a spot to fit it in the bag even it requires me to remove my 3w.

I can definitely see the appeal of this type of tweener club and will take it to the course tomorrow to see exactly how it performs. Definitely noticed right away that it doesn’t want to go left on me like most hybrids do.

play a 4 wood. If I were you, I'd go driver, 4w then 7w

that’s definitely a gapping I’ll probably experiment with this winter. I’m a tinkerer with a simulator so I’m sure I’ll have tried 1000 things by spring. :lol:

Callaway Pre owned had the OG UW 17° in a 6.5 Hzrdus black for sub $125 so I just ordered it to see how I like the feel of the UW before dropping almost $400 on the new one in a 19°. Nowhere in NorthLa has them instock to actually swing before ordering yet
