This is literally the dumbest thing I have ever read. Are you somehow suggesting that drivers continue to accelerate after leaving the hand? Thanks to air resistance, the velocity at which it leaves your hand is going to be the "top speed" after which it starts slowing down.

About a year ago I found what looks like a penis pump that had apparently been set on fire and then thrown into a tree at Rivery Park in Georgetown, TX. :confused: (click pics for larger version) Also, earlier this week I was out shooting a doubles round with some friends at Bartholomew...

I picked up a pair of turf shoes, the kind with hundreds of small rounded nubs on the bottom (like half-assed cleats). They get excellent traction on grass/dirt but still let you freely rotate so you don't tear your knee up. They also get perfect traction on cement tee pads. I picked up a pair...

I've played in two bag tag leagues. One was less formal, $30 buy in for tags all goes towards course maintenance & end of year party. Whoever showed up just tossed their tags into a hat and then redistributed them after the round based on scores. Whoever won the round got to pick the location...

I'll do both GPS & survey wheel and then see how much discrepancy there is between the two. Also one question is on holes where the fairway is a long curve do you measure along the center of the fairway or straight line distance (even if that straight line isn't a possible golf line)? If you...

Hey peebody, what temp do you suggest? I just spent awhile searching the forums and I couldn't find a straight answer on temperature. Seems like most people use the "heat it til you can barely touch the pan" method. :confused: I'm running low on dyeable discs but I might have to do some...

I think it was more like acetone, soap and water, then acetone to clean a couple tough scuff marks followed by water. I don't think it was soap residue, especially cause I rinsed the disc off after the 1st soaking before adding the 2nd pack of dye. Maybe I got the wrong polarity rit dye and it...

I actually bought a surveying wheel specifically for that purpose. I LOVE that course, I play it at least twice a week. The only problem is the majority of the shots are up & down hills across creeks so I'm not sure how accurate of measurements I could get. Also, only 1 ace for me.

Awesome, I'm heading to the store after work to get a few more boxes. Glad to hear you got it sorted out!:thmbup:

A technique I came up with after a sublime screwup. On the very first disc my roommate and I dyed some dye got underneath the wrinkled contact paper where it had wrapped around the edge of the disc and made a crazy design. Basically all I do is cut the contact paper into about 4" squares and...

I had a similar problem last night when I tried to dye an ion. I started with 1 pack of rid dye in 32oz of water heated to 120 deg F. I let the disc soak for ~25 min and pulled it to check. It had just barely taken a light shade of gray so I decided to add another pack of dye and reheat the pan...

Two more dyes I did last night. Not sure why the black didn't turn out well on the ion. I started w/ 1 pack of black dye in 32oz water at 120 deg F and let it soak for ~25 min before pulling it. At that point the dye hadn't even really taken so I added another pack of black dye to the water...

Magic eraser? That for removing sharpie from baskets or something? Too bad you can't carry something to take paint off rock/concrete, we have some ******* that has been spray painting "save seed" and "grow food" on EVERY SINGLE COURSE IN TOWN. Edit: My bag: Tiger Balm (infinitely better than...

Firebird thumber, you got tons of headroom. Edit: Since it's only 221' I'd go with the Banshee over the Firebird.
