OT: Anything Goes 9: Summer's Here! Festivals Abound!

[ChiGuySez]

That wasn't a Toronto suggestion.

So they're building a Top Golf by me and it has just come to my attention that I have to buy a yearly or monthly membership, and then pay $40/hour for a cubicle for up to 6 people? Didn't realize there is a membership fee for the place, and that is ****ing stupid.

 

[IU Hawks fan]

When I went here, the 'membership fee' went toward the round. It was like the 1st time you went to had to pay $20 to become a member to get a card, but that $20 went toward play. Then if you went again with your same card you didn't have to pay $20, you just bought the rounds straight up.

 

[ColdSteel2]

Yeah, not a golfer either, although most around me golf all the time and I'm always hearing about it's the greatest game and how I am missing out. If I want to get drunk and desecrate a fine patch of grass, I'll do so via slip and slide. Don't mind the driving range though, went for the first time recently, although I shoot like Happy Gilmore, still hit some moon shots though, cleared well over 300 when I connected. Like mini golf though, want to try that PGN place you guys are talking about.

Ah, ok, I can with that then.

I call ********.


That's like me saying I went to a Cubs game and the carnival game where they clock your pitch, I hit 95.

Well yeah because we don't even have that

When I went to teh Sox game a few weeks ago I hit 67 all three times

I'm surprised you can hit 67 without your shoulder flying off your body, let alone 3 times.

 

[Gootie]

My shoulder felt like it did for the next few days

One of my older cousins was the low man at 65, had to buy a round.

I suck at golf, no shame in that at all, I'm terrible and don't have the patience. They weren't always straight and my connect rate was about 50%, but yeah, I can launch them. The guy I went with kept trying to get me to ease up and hit them straight and consistent but that's not fun, I'm not a golfer, just wanted to see how far I could hit them. What does someone like Tiger hit them at?

Yup. Range balls have lower compression.

I have a 300yd drive on the course. I go for max distance. Only a handful have outdrove me on muni courses. Problem is my scores suck.

Weak. I got clocked at 80.

 

[IU Hawks fan]

I can't drive for ****. Half the time I keep it in the bag and just hit my 3 iron, which I've pretty decent with.

 

[RayP]

I'm the same way. I can hit my 3 iron straight and about 200 yards, well, when I golfed anyway. If I hit a driver it'd go 160 yards straight, and 90 yards to the right.

 

[Gootie]

Weak. I got clocked at 80.

Neat.

 

[ColdSteel2]

There is this bar called the sweet spot by my house. I don't go there often but likely will before the summer is over. They have a range, that was the first time I fired a shot, was just drunk, grabbed a club off the rack, ran out grabbed a ball, shanked it and hit it 300 yards, that's when that guy said I should come out with him to the range sometime and I did one time. I swing and miss a lot, hit the ball all ****ed up sometimes, but when I hit it right, it's like a roided Sosa putting one on Waveland. But yeah, I promise I'll make a video, not sure why it means anything anyway though, I suck and have no interest in pursuing the sport, I'm just big and strong.

 

[ChiGuySez]

Neat.

Lol. Cant quit my day job.

Im short. Driving distance doesnt always equate to size. Just the amount of clubhead speed you can generate.

What's really depressing is when you see a guy throw a lollipop curve ball and it's still faster than your max.

 

[madgoat33]

they clocked my clubhead at supersonic levels. Ball just disintegrates when I hit it.

Can't even golf, real depressing.

Barry Zit's curve has about 5 mph on you.


You suck.

You suck.

 

[Kurtosis]

So much ******** being spewed right now. ****ing impressive boys.

 

[Cullksinikers]

I can throw a consistent 75 and probably touch 80 here and there. That isn't ****.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

I crush it at Golden tee.

Considering Culk has a fastball that touches 80 and a BA around was it .400? You must have been playing for a high school that was also a rookie ball squad.
