Just installed a new bidet and got a call to go get my ass ate. The world works in mysterious ways.

They all called me crazy, some asked if I liked things in my ass. Now I'm the one laughing and I am definitely laughing any and every opportunity. I have water flick pieces of shit like them off my ass before breakfast.

Buying a push cart this afternoon before I hit the grocery store.

Was talking with our club president tonight. He said if we have a staff member come down with corona then we’re closing the club for 3 weeks. Immediately grabbed my sticks so I can hop the fence to play.

Let’s talk about the added bonus of having a bidet. You get so used to a little wet pressure on your asshole and you are so confident in how clean it is that you have ZERO issue in asking to have your salet tossed. Believe me friends, ask and you shall receive.

That’s right. NABC crystal trophy was what I was thinking of. We’ll do something at our team awards ceremony would be my guess. I don’t think Bill would approve of a parade or something public. That’s not really his style and last parade had a hundred thousand people there. We just cancelled 20k person events. A parade is never going to happen. my guess is a national championship banner if more than one outlet specifically crowns Ku “national champions” if we are just AP #1 I would guess that we will have some special banner made. All of our banners for conference championships, tourney appearances, and each round of advancement are 1 banner with multiple years. Our national title banners stand alone so I can see one going up that says “AP and coaches poll unanimous #1 - 2020” but I don’t see “national champions” being on it unless it is universally recognized

My guess is the AP will release a final poll and give us a trophy.

I’m over this shit. If espn covers this nonstop for the next month like the rest of TV I’m going to go ballistic.

As a Ku fan, not earning the title via tournament when we have our best chance against the field maybe ever is far more painful than losing it on the court. I’d rather lose in the second round than not have the tournament at all. At least we would know that we weren’t the best team at the end of the tournament. Now it’ll always be questioned who was going to win. it also robs bill self of his second (assuming we would have won) national title.

Dumbing it down to a local level... Kansas City, MISSOURI, Mayor just announced a state of emergency. KCMO has 1 case of covid-19. KCK has 1 case of it too. It sounds like he is prepping to enforce curfews. He has the power to control liquor distribution during this time as well so he can cut off bars/restaurants/liquor stores from being able to serve. on some level you have to be smart, but this is just ridiculous. "We need to change how we interact to confront our health crisis." Sounds like he's going to use his authority, whatever that may be.

I'm going to go ahead and say yesterday was the end of the basketball season. No chance the NCAA can withstand the media onslaught if they try to play. The NBA is fine because they make money and have a product. They've survived much shorter years than this. They can take a month off, let things die down, then start the playoffs. They could really even take 2 months off if they go to a 3-3-5-7 playoff set up this year.

Here is my final hypothesis... If we get through the conference tourneys with no fans and no players or coaches test positive for corona then we will have a NCAA tourney with no fans, private planes, secluded hotels, and small venues (college arenas). If we even have 1 player come down with it for let's say Illinois, then every big 10 team will have been exposed by virtue of being in the same building that the infected player was in. Then the entire NCAA tournament will be cancelled. This isn't going to be a "play it in May" scenario with how long this is going to spread for and how many people we worry about it touching. We also aren't going to play it in June when players are graduated and prepping for the NBA draft. We also aren't considering that the arenas are going to be booked for other events. it is a logistics nightmare to get this done. The tourney is either on or it is off. Right now I would have to put it at a 60% or more chance that it won't happen and every media personality that says it should be delayed or cancelled is only putting more pressure on Emmert to cancel it. we need a minor miracle if our march madness is to be saved.

I'm still not convinced we play the rest of the tourney. Jay Williams and Charles Barkley are calling for the tournament to be postponed or cancelled. Once the media instills the fear the NCAA will capitulate.

Ku going to have to go Aggie and claim the title.

Ncaa will cancel the tourney by the end of the weekend. No doubt.

I'd play with what you have on irons and then when you get back into the game and see your scores start to go down because of a consistent swing then go get fitted. You might even entertain getting a second hand driver that is newer just for the tech upgrade. Then get fitted for that when you have yourself settled. One thing I feel like fitting did for me was get the tech where it needed to be. I have a friend who plays with 20 year old clubs and is staunch about "its the swing not the equipment" well that's true to an extent but my misses are a whole lot better than his comparable misses and I'm about 1.5-2 club lengths longer while he is 2 strokes better than me. The only difference in our games is the short game. He also refuses to spend money on his game which is baffling to me because he could be a 6-7 handicap if he would actually buy clubs that are meant for him. The clubs he does play were given to him by a guy who is 4-5" shorted than him and swings 15 mph harder than him. To an extent he isn't crazy, but he also thinks he can cheap his way to a low handicap and it just isn't true. You have to work but you also have to be equipped to handle the course and weather conditions on days when your stroke doesn't show up.

You’d think I’d need a stiff shaft but the lack of flex is ridiculously evident when I just to a slightly stiffer shaft. I must just be in between stock stiffness. Which is why I got fitted. No doubt that could change when I add some speed but right now anything stiffer than what I have is like swinging a 2x4.

My timing is a little weird. My 3 is a regular flex and I blast it at 100 mph. I’m sure there will be adjustment but if I can get the timing right and speed up then I’m not super worried about the shaft. If it is a problem then I’ll just get a new shaft. It’s just money.

I love my 3 and am very comfortable with it, but I have a 3-5 shots a round that just go awry and get me in jail. I'm really trying to justify the driver and know I will have to put in a lot of work (and possibly time in the gym) to make it worth it.

When I pulled it with my 3 wood I would be further left than when I would pull it with the driver. Don't know why, but that's what the data showed and what I experience on the course when I miss hit my 3. I will leave the minute we've got the company in a position to move. Not a second later. I fucking hate bermuda grass, the people, and the city of Tulsa. I've played 14 rounds this year and I'm getting sick of hitting off dormant and matted down bermuda. I'm putting from 20 yards off the green because the grass is basically hard pan and the greens are so fast the ball isn't stopping. Oh yeah... Played in 30+ mph wind all weekend. Sick of that shit too. Fuck Oklahoma.

I wasn’t going to buy it but for two reasons. First, my miss wasn’t as bad as my 3 wood miss. Second, I haven’t swung a driver in 10+ years. I feel that if I spend some time and really groove a swing and learn to hit it I could add 10-15 more yards. It would come in very handy on 4 holes at the club i primarily play and 7 at the secondary course I play. yesterday showed another issue, in Oklahoma the wind is brutal. I hit an extremely high 3. Played some very long holes yesterday. Having a 9 degree will be handy. finally, I have only been carrying 12 clubs. 3 wood, 4-pw, 50, 53, 57, putter. I can still add another wedge.

Thanks for sharing. I’m going to check it out

I used to work out a ton and was swinging my mid-irons around 114. I’m like 26% body fat now. 5’8” 175 pounds. I figure if I get my lazy ass in the gym I’ll add a lot of speed. But no I have not done any lessons or anything on generating speed. Have any thoughts? I was hesitant to buy the driver as it only gave me 10 yards or so. But then I convinced myself I could get my speed up and I’ll get to 300 which 290+ was the only circumstance I felt would justify a driver purchase when I hit my 3 275.

Duhhhhh... I’m an idiot. Hangover posts.

Had my driver fitting. I warmed up with the 3 wood and the guy was a little confused. Then I started hitting it and he realized that anything I might buy would be compared to that. My swing speed was around 98 mph and my ball speed was about 148. Smash factor of 1.51 which is about as efficient as you can be transferring energy to the ball. Best drives were traveling 275 but I was probably averaging 265-270. We really struggled to find something that could compare ended up going with the ping G410 head with a fujikura speeder shaft. Didn’t gain a ton of distance but added some consistency. Here is the read on how I hit that when we were dueling it with a taylormade TS2. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
