Congrats [USER=68285]@agrsiv[/USER] and [USER=15014]@Greg Kulbick[/USER]!
Just finished listening in my way home, when I got fit for the t-200/T-100S combo set I was fit into 2 different lie angle which I thought was crazy. Standard from 4-6, and 1* flat 7-GW. That was the first time I have ever heard of that being a thing
Congrats to the Shaft up winners. Got to ask [USER=3]@JB[/USER] what was the secret protein bar that was so good?

Not just any built puffs, it’s the cookie dough chunk ones.
Hey [USER=3]@JB[/USER] gotta question for ya related to “standard.” Not loft. But lie and length. Obviously length can effectively alter dynamic lie angle. Have you ever been given a reason as to why some companies (in my experience Taylormade/Cobra slightly more upright and Mizuno seemingly more flat) have this difference? Club design?

A myriad of reasons from club design to hitting the masses.
This is me when I was in FL over Christmas ?

Great podcast, glad I could join the first half live. Looking forward to the next one.
couldn’t join live but did listen…. the correct best sandwich is fried grouper LTP, bun should be lightly toasted with mayo and hot sauce… all that food talk had me rummaging in the kitchen while I listened…. I couldn’t find anything remotely satisfying…. Great listen to the WGP.
Montecristo sandwich brought back fond memories mmmm so good.
Morgan isn’t wrong, nothing better then a nice cheesy meatball sub on a nice bread with extra sauce. Congrats [USER=15014]@Greg Kulbick[/USER] , [USER=68285]@agrsiv[/USER] .
Nebraska and UST :love: Arbor links looks like an outstanding course.
Hey [USER=7]@GolferGal[/USER] can we get a picture of this controversial protein bar? I’m pretty dependent on those for work and always looking for something new.
Since I’m not a fan of jacked lofts I did look at the part about lofts. I might be wrong but I’ll always believe it’s about selling clubs to people with big egos. Just looked at a couple of club sights and see that Ping would like to sell four wedges with their G430 set and Titleist actually has a 38° Pitching wedge in one set. This is not a new thing as JB said, been gradually happening for years. In the TM sight down at the bottom there’s Product Specifications and you can research back a long way and see the lofts changing by model. I find it strange that the better player clubs usually don’t have the jacked lofts. Just had a thought, do we want to get better or just hit the ball farther?

Those things aren’t mutually exclusive.
But as I said, if someone wants to believe it’s just a stamped number , go for it.
Loft Peepers must have started back 30 years ago.

That’s the problem, they don’t have them available right now, that was my last box of them. No idea if or when more will be available either.

I ate these for my dessert. They were so good and had little protein cookie dough pieces in them.
You can do yogurt, cottage cheese, string cheese, hard boiled eggs and depending on your position on lunch meat, some lunch meat as a protein snack as well.

yeah the problem is I can’t always eat that stuff at the nurses station or walking down the hall really quick. I’ll eat just about anything but some things are much easier than others depending on the shift.

I totally get that! What about some meat sticks? They make some that aren’t just a salt bomb. You basically need travel food, that can definitely get tricky.

My biggest issue is knowing I may not get to eat for the next few hours and just eating whatever I can. I’m down 12lbs since the first of the year by not buying Grandma’s Cookies and Hot Tamales. Love eggs, but almost have to take a loan to eat them anymore. :LOL:
I’ve got this on in the background right now. Good to see we almost made it to the 5-minute mark before the first F bomb.
Getting caught up on the stream from yesterday. Excited to see Teem Tour Edge back. It was a previously slept on brand from my end, but definitely on my must try list in my next fitting.
In finding a country club I use to think it was all about golf, but your comments about what you are looking for hit home for me now. It is important to find a place that my whole family can use and enjoy as well.

Thanks. I used to very much be in the camp of joining a club and trying to work the numbers to get the rounds to even out. But at my last two clubs, I found so much more to be a part of and it was pretty great. Golfers of all skill levels, great pace of play and good conditions were fantastic. But just as important was grabbing a meal or a drink with the group, having themed dinners and social events each week or month.
It sounds spoiled for looking for all in one thing, but I believe that is where my dues were worth it.

Was able to listen earlier today and I am so happy that TEEm Tour Edge is coming back. I hope all that get selected enjoy reviewing Tour Edge’s line as much as I did.
Unless you are retired, I don’t see how you can play enough to “get your money’s worth” on a per round basis. The food and other amenities have to make sense for each person’s situation. Along with the golf, the best thing I got from our membership was the friendships with other members.
Am watching on YouTube right now. Love the show so far !!
what a good episode..can’t wait for the next Shaft up and the Tour Edge program, thats sick!!
