Hey White House, please remove the Tropic Thunder clip. We never gave you permission and have no interest in being a part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie.

BREAKING: Kristi Noem claims that Alex Pretti approached ICE with a gun.

What she doesn’t say is that he had a right to carry that gun and a license to carry that gun.

What she also doesn’t say is that he never pulled that gun out on officers.

And of course, what she doesn’t mention is the fact that he didn’t have the gun any longer when officers shot and killed him.

There’s no reason to fire defensive shots if the man is unarmed.

And there it is.

The Minnesota assassin who shot Democratic lawmakers “voted for Donald Trump and was a strong Trump supporter,” according to his best friend.

evangelical merc who runs a private security firm- who killed democratic lawmakers, & had ilhan omar and tim walz on his hitlist (according to the police) is most likely NOT a left wing assassin but that hasn't stopped elon from lying on his own social media platform. dangerous.

Do you need to know a lot about the golf swing to have a good swing?

PROPAGANDA WE'RE NOT FALLING FOR:

- PUREing your clubs
- Refurbished golf balls
- RUST = SPIN
- "My golf ball doesn't matter"
- Shooting 45 in a scramble
- The Hot List
- Club "tests" done with robots
- Putter looks matter

I spent 20 years stuck as a golfer.

Practicing harder. Chasing perfect swings. Getting nowhere.

Then I removed 10 habits—and everything changed.

If you’re feeling frustrated and burnt out, this thread is for you 🧵

Every putt is a speed drill.

Most golfers obsess over line and their stroke.

But it’s speed that saves you:

• Speed controls 3-putts.
• Speed shrinks your comebackers.
• Speed turns lip-outs into drop-ins.

Putt for proximity, not perfection 😎

[Jon Sherman @practicalgolf]

I finally removed these things from my golf game.

I am a happier and better player because of it.

You all probably struggle with some of these too!

Putting make rates by time of day.
(2004 to 2021 - tour players)

Foot traffic and grass growth throughout the day makes it tougher to putt.

No matter what round you look at, or what group of players, you will see this same general pattern.

I’m in the process of building a library of valuable golf advice on YouTube.

I want to emphasize “playing skills” that have been ignored for too long.

Currently, the algo feeds way too much swing advice and there needs to be a balance!

Most golfers default to blocked (repetitive) practice at the range.

But they do it all wrong and eventually complain that their range game never shows up on the course.

Here is how to practice properly and avoid what I call "Zombie Range Sessions" 👇

FAIRWAYS ARE OVERRATED! 🚨

Many golfers evaluate their driver performance by how many fairways they hit.

It’s time to stop doing that. Here's why.

5 practice methods that helped me become a +2 handicap

[Lou Stagner (Golf Stat Pro) @LouStagner]

Two of my goals for 2025.

I know they are impossible, but I will give it my all. 😀

GOAL ONE:
Getting all golfers to understand that a full wedge from 100 yards is NOT better than a half wedge from 50 yards.

GOAL TWO:
"Never up, never in" is a BAD mindset for mid-range and long-range putts.

Every team member is responsible for the culture of the team. Everyone owns a part in that culture. It's not coach's team. It's not the starter's team. It's not so-and-so team. It's everyone's team. Everyone should be invested in the process.

[Bhrett McCabe, PhD @DrBhrettMcCabe]

I am often asked how to play without fear. My answer is that you don't, but you can play with high acceptance.

CAPTAINS: Leadership is more than a title, position, status, talent, or having a "C" next to your name. Leadership is an action that moves your team forward. A leader helps their teammates to be their best. A leader makes others better. A leader is a positive influence.
