Non-Political Wedge Issue Thread
« on: June 22, 2023, 04:35:27 PM »
This is for NON-POLITICAL wedge issues, so no pitting allowed.

Some that have recently been discussed:

*Whether booking travel is a joy or a nightmare

*Whether a zero inbox (or Messages) policy or a laissez-faire approach is preferable

For discussion, I'll add the following:

*Whether the toilet paper roll's open end should be over or under.

Feel free to add your own non-political wedge issues. As to the foregoing three, I say:

1.) Don't particularly like it, even though I have a s-ton of points and live in one of the most advantageous hub cities for travel.

2.) I'm a laissez-faire guy. Doesn't bother me.

3.) Over, obvs.

- booking travel is a joy; there's nothing better
- keeping inbox clean is a fool's errand.
- toilet paper is supposed to roll over the top; under is insanity.
- toilet seat and lid should always be closed when not in use. why would you ever want that hole to be open?
- what on earth are you doing with your car windows up when it's 75 and sunny? do you hate your life?

Did not realize I was so closely aligned with mocat when it comes to wedge issues. ESP the toilet lid stuff.

Here’s my wedge issue:
Pitching, sand, gap. Change my mind (you won’t)

Wait a sec, are you saying you use a gap wedge out of a sand trap or what? If so, do you at least open the face fully?

I’m saying in your bag there should be wedges three, no more no less. And those wedges should be P,S and G. Oh you have a 60 degree? Hit a lot of flop shots do ya, tiger? GTFOOMF with that baloney

Full golf bag is driver, 5, 7,9, pitching wedge, putter. The rest of the room in your bag is room that should be filled with unsanctioned beer and rum.

Beach vs mountains is a toughie. Really depends on the beach. I rough ridin' hate full beaches.

Travel planning is awful. I am always worried that I am not picking the perfect beach and might end up on a full beach.

Related to TP:

Bidet vs dirty asses.

My take is if you were to get some mud on your hand(top of hand where all the little hairs are) would you wipe that off with a dry paper towel and consider it clean?  Now imagine the mud is crap.

Pitching wedge between 75-125 yards and a 56 degree wedge for everything else.

PW is also used when I'm deep in the crap after driving my ball way out of bounds but find it and just need to make solid contact to get it back on the fairway.

I realized after that post I don't even have a toilet paper holder in my bathroom so the toilet paper goes on the tank or vanity. My last place didn't have a TP holder either but I at least installed one. My politics on this matter seems to be that TP shouldn't go in a holder.

that was a whole discussion among the cc employees. there are always dozens of clubs in lost & found. it was deemed ethical to claim anything left at the end of a season when the course shuts down.

woods: 1,3,5
irons: 4-9
wedges: P, G(49deg), 56, 60
hybrids: GTFO i'm not 75 years old good grief!

The 60 degree was a boondoggle b/c I was drunk with power during my fitting the guy brought over the 60 and i was like lol and he was like just give it a try and i nutted every single swing so i was like okay fine

Inbox zero by end of week
