  1. Sigh ... verb (used with object), dec·i·mat·ed, dec·i·mat·ing. to destroy a great number or proportion of: The population was decimated by a plague. to select by lot and kill every tenth person of. Obsolete. to take a tenth of or from. (the best part of this is your pedantic reference is flagged "obsolete").
  2. I LITERALLY meant that figuratively. It's down 50% from where it was two fucking weeks ago.
  3. I'd bet dollars to donuts that with this swing feel, you aren't outside the line at all, but actually on-plane. The really good players play with the club well out in front of their chest, which to normal folks feels like you're shoving it out away from your head like an idiot. It's fascinating to see/feel, right @chitwood?
  4. Fuck this game, and also I love this game. A month ago, buddy and I played at Falconhead and neither one of us (both single-digit handicaps) couldn't find the clubface, much less the sweet spot. Both shot low 90's (easily do-able out there from the back tees). Cut to last sunday - Shot 68 at Star Ranch. Five birdies and two bogies, and really had very little stress all day. Cut to this morning at Star Ranch. Another fucking 68 - four birdies and a lone bogey, and a first-time achievement in my life, a scorecard with no 5's on it. Chipped to a foot on 5 for birdie, two putt birdies on 13 and 18, and my lone bogey was on 12 (par 3, score 4). Crazy game, and those last two rounds have DECIMATED my handicap.
  5. Long since sold, the money used to buy weed. Ask the cart kids, they might share with you.
  6. We left enough of them scattered around your golf course, I bet you can find one or two if you look hard enough.
  7. That's not a Moc?
  8. Cleaning out my golf stuff. I can send you pictures of anything, I just wanted to get this all typed out. I'll edit the post if anything sells. You can see pics on the CL post here - https://austin.craigslist.org/spo/d/austin-golf-club-cleanout-titleist/7136900747.html. I take care of my gear so it's all in good shape, and I'm trying to price this stuff realistically because I want it gone. These are shaggster prices, CL are a bit higher. $150 - Titleist TS2 driver. Rogue MAX 65 Stiff shaft. Clubhead in nice shape, consistent with being the primary gamer for ~9 months or so. No idiot marks. Grip will need to be replaced - I can regrip with a basic Tour Velvet if you want. Comes with a headcover, no wrench. $125 - Titleist 816 H1 23deg hybrid. Legit orange Tour Accuracy Tour AD-Di 85 Hybrid stiff shaft (purchased separately, this is a ~$200+ shaft retail). Club plays 39", which is slightly shorter than off the rack. This is a deal just for the shaft. Nearly-new black/white decade multi-compound grip. No headcover, no wrench. I can adjust it for you before I send it, if you want. $50 - Cobra King Utility 3/4 driving iron (specs - Cobra Website). Shaft is the Diamana D+ 90 stiff. This is actually the shaft that originally came in the Titleist hybrid listed right about this; it's a VERY well received on the market. Club plays at 39.5", which is about a quarter-inch longer than the driving iron normally plays. Original titleist Tour Velvet 360 grip, life left in it. No headcover, no wrench (I can adjust for you if you want, current set at 19.5deg loft. $300 - Mizuno JPX900 Tour irons, 3-PW. These are the clubs that Mizuno developed for Brooks Koepka when he wasn't even on staff. Definitely a players iron (google for info). In incredible shape - some bag chatter, but absolutely no wear on the sweet spots and no major dings to any leading edges. Solid 8.5/10. Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 shafts (slightly heavier than S300, with tighter quality control). Mix of grips as I varied the irons that I actually had in the bag, but all grips have plenty of life left. $50 - Mizuno MP-52 irons, 3-PW. These were my gamers for about five years. Standard mizuno excellence, with a decent amount of sweet spot wear and bag chatter. DGS300 shafts, decade multi-compound grips with LOTS of life left. If you've ever been curious about that Mizuno feel, here's an easy way to try it out for cheap. Ask @DDD Dad, @chitwood, @longhorn10, or @Schlong Connery - they've all lost money to these irons :). $100 - Tour Accuracy Tour AD-Di 6s driver shaft. Will play at 45" in a Ping or Titleist head, not sure about others. Currently has a Titleist shaft adapter on it, but that adapter is messed up and won't tighten properly so you'll need to get it removed/replaced. No cosmetic damage, just a good clean massive upgrade to your driver. Grip is worn and will need to be replaced; I'll include a basic Tour Velvet in the box. All clubs in Austin. No usb ports on any club, and I'm full up on best buy coupons. Cash or venmo please. Reasonable offers entertained, fun trades for Scotty Cameron stuff ok too. I can ship, you pay actual shipping.
  9. Fucking hell ... from RTJ3 timeline but these dudes are just straight up legit.
  10. These guys don't know how to make a bad track. RTJ4 fucking slams. The two early release tracks are catchy af no doubt (oh-la-la-ah-oui-oui!), but out of sight and walking in the snow are rocketing to the top of my list.
  11. I thought for sure this was another game of "find the copperhead I almost stepped on," but then realized it was a slightly-cropped pic of the rat snake from a few posts prior.
  12. SMU opening that Austin pipeline. Jokes aside, good for Chris. Go get yours.
  13. I'm a few miles west/southwest of you, and we've had 2-3 coral's show up in our neighborhood this spring. Data is not the plural of anecdote, but that's more than the last few years for sure.
  14. I've found you to be a reasonable poster, BamaChick. Please know that this post, pointed at this particular person, is way off. I say that respectfully, and this doesn't need to turn into an "is not! is to!" conversation, but it's just way, way off.
  15. This might be the funniest fucking thing I've ever read. Not just on Surly ... anywhere.
  16. Dr.Beeper is clearly Derka.
  17. *double post*
  18. I'll always have Florida.
  19. This is even more fun of a chart if you put up what the second-place record holder has as a stat. He's ~900 points ahead of second place in all-time points, for example (Jagr).
  20. It was indeed a HUGE bomb. Butler won the overall engagement, for sure :).
