@Heritagecricket I have a 44 PW, 49 GW, 54 SW, and 59 SW (58 bent).

The PW and GW are Mizuno 225s for full shots.

The 54 and 59 are Vokey SM10s. The 54 08F is for thick grass and soft bunkers and the 58 14M is for tie lies and firm bunkers. The latter 2 were from a Vokey fitting.

@art_stapleton In August, I felt this was a .500 team. Which would be a success after the last 10 years. And fans would feel the uplifting of the franchise for a better record in 2027.

Signing Ricard said a lot. We are going to run the ball HARD.

I did not anticipate the big culture change.

@postcrabcore Three things stand out to me. Firstly, the crazy speed. And second, the tackling ferocity. And lastly, the tenaciousness to completing the play.

@MLFootball @LicensePlateGuy @TommyG105 @TheDougRush @NYG_Nation10 @IamEliRacks @JefePil How do you fit his salary under the cap? His total impact this year is $24M.

@GolfTravelerJoe It was better than I expected too. This is the par 3 18th.

@J0nesToChina Scheme has helped a lot too.

Banks was drafted as a press corner in Wink’s scheme. We clearly saw he was lost in Bowen’s zone defense. So Wilson is using Banks natural ability properly back as a press corner.

Schemes matching a player’s abilities matters.

@FoxNews I am an Independent. And a former Reagan Republican.

Vivek’s ad is abhorrently offensive.

He used a birth mother who chose a rapist over her children - who she has no relationship with for 48 years! - as a character witness? 🤦🏻

And this is normal?

@Top100Rick I had a Scotty California Coronado for over 20 years before it was stolen. Now a Scotty FastBack 1.5.

They need to “fit” you. The FB initially was ‘eh’ for a year. Then I had the shop match the loft and lie angle of the Coronado. And guess what? Rolls great now.

@IamEliRacks Giants fans need to remember this 10 years from now when they are trashing a player.

Schemes matter. Banks is a press corner and drafted into Wink’s scheme. Played well. Looked lost in Bowen’s zone scheme. Now flourishing again as a press corner.

@postcrabcore Giants fans need to remember this 10 years from now when commenting on players and their performance. Schemes matched to players matter

Banks was drafted as a press corner into Wink’s scheme. Played well. Then was asked to play zone in Bowen’s. Looked lost. And now back to press

@1NCRDB1 Let the “experts” keep disrespecting you. And then feed off of that energy.

[David Spinelli @dspin65]

@StatisticUrban Pete B is pretty gifted too.

@chad_mizelle Ha! Everyone knows you are bluffing. This suit will never go the the Discovery Phase.

@PepperellEddie Eddie, one thing you amplified in your Substack post is why I was so vehemently against LIV - “golf” has always been about meritocracy. And winning. Not guaranteed pay to play.

Those who stayed loyal to these principles - and the corresponding Tours - should have higher priority
