  1. The most incredible skill PGA tour pros possess is ignoring those idiots. I imagine they have anti-hearing aids. The higher they turn them up, the less they hear.
  2. You think surly has standards. That's cute.
  3. At least she's not opening plane doors at 30k feet. She's better than the average Herman.
  4. Are you in Austin? If so, check out Fine Lumber - they may have something that would work better than a standard dowel and for considerably less than $65. If you're not in Austin, find a local lumber yard - a lot of them will sell trim and specialty molded pieces.
  5. I think we just have to accept tour golf in Austin is done for quite a while. The city just doesn't have sensible options for the modern tour and ACC was always a bit of a stretch. Made it work while we could.
  6. How many fuckups does this guy get before we finally stop idolizing him?
  7. HSB courses are overrated as fuck, outside Summit Rock. Ram Rock is fine but certainly not PGA tour level. Apple Rock might be one of my least favorite courses I've played more than once. If you could figure out how to get people there, UT is a decent option. I've always thought that was a better course for the tour than ACC but logistics will be tough given how tucked into a neighborhood it is. I think the issue with all of the above suggestions, UT included, is a lot of the open areas around holes are forest. Not a lot of areas to put up big grandstands like ACC has on the waterfront holes.
  8. I get it, CC's want all the cash but ACC is one of two member owned/run country clubs in Austin. It's the members making that decision.
  9. If the club nets $1.5 - $2M for hosting, why charge 2 months of dues? Seems silly to "subsidize" an event that turns a profit for the club.
  10. I'm sure Greller is keeping tabs along the way. It's only a DQ if he signs it incorrectly and at that point, Max will have had to sign/verify it as well.
  11. I don't really agree with your read on their hopes but even if it were the case, I'm sure they were just hoping for something sustainably exciting. Snooze fest of a race. They talked more about Lando and his P17 (or whatever) pneumatic issues than anything else.
  12. Golf fans are the worst sports fan anywhere. Awkward as fuck and most are so dumb on golf in general. That was a GREAT tournament. One of the best Sundays in quite a while.
  13. This year, that title has to be Stroll. Followed up by Stroll. And then next year, the new least favorite is likely Stroll.
  14. Really not a fan of no cut events. WGC all over again.
  15. I think I'm ok with them not showing how the Riley and Ellie story wraps up. I'm not sure I could have taken seeing them play out what happened to Riley and Ellie after the bite, my feels were pretty much spent without that. I imagine it was something a la Henry and Sam but a lot slower. Agree with what others are saying - this isn't really a show about zombies, zombies just happen to be in it. I hate zombies and anything horror-esque in general and I'm enjoying this. Granted, I do blur my eyes during the scary shit.
  16. Do you know how hard it is to get a 40 year old to pay attention to anything when where are airplanes taking off and landing next door? I'd throw my neck out looking up and then get beaned in the nuts.
  17. Finally, a UT golfer with a textbook swing.
  18. God help us all if Lance Stroll is in a competitive car.
  19. Is there a reason RB didn't put two cars out there? Quick glance, it looks like all the other teams did. They got more than double the laps of any other car so I guess it evens out but I would think they'd want to test two different setups.
  20. Physics grad, huh? So now Charles and Carlos can pick from Plan Alpha, Beta, and Gamma instead of A, B, and C?
  21. Pierceson and Parker both are making their debut. Pierceson is kicking ass, -4 and 1 shot off the lead, just finished 18. Parker did not have as good of a day.
  22. Trackmans are a game changer in teaching. They provide a ton of info that the naked eye can't discern (for mere mortals not named Penick). Makes it less risky for the student - the teacher has such a huge aid they are more likely to succeed. There are competitors to Trackmans but they are the Rolls Royce of sims. Edit: to expand some, it tracks backspin, side spin, club speed, ball speed, face angle, plots the trajectory, carry distance, roll out and more. It's impressive.
  23. GHIN has PCC now so the formulas are not the same unless MyScorecard does PCC just using their own data. Even if they did do that (which I doubt), their PCC would be different from GHIN PCC since the underlying data would be different.
  24. You don't have to turn scorecards in, you can just post them using the GHIN app or GHIN website. You do have to be signed up with a club that is associated with GHIN (of which there are many). The only way to now maintain an accurate handicap is through GHIN, unfortunately (though handicaps are more fair now so tradeoffs and all that).
  25. It would have been the best peace deal you've ever seen. Believe me.
