Fine cook today. Tried the extra pepper trick, and man the bark was amazing.

2020 Golf Thread of Disappoint Yourself
Down to a 4 cap now. Makes winning any kind of bets really difficult, giving up strokes to everyone. How do you guys handle bets and strokes? Play off the lowest cap, or give everyone strokes according to their cap? For instance, if a 5 plays a 9, the 9 gets 4 strokes. Do those strokes count on the hardest 4 holes (1-4), or does the 9 get pops on the 6, 7, 8, and 9 cap holes?

Really enjoying a Redemption wheated. Taste is good. Smell is phenomenal.

Anyone here use the DECADE system by Faucett? I started researching it, looks interesting. Course management system that gives you strategy based on your stat tracking.

Ordered my F250 a few weeks ago, received the VIN already. Getting excited. King Ranch Tremor. Looking forward to the increased payload vs the F150.

It is truly transformational. Learning to swing the club around your body vs straight back /straight forward is a very big step. Your natural athleticism gets unleashed, and your natural instincts know how far to pitch/chip/putt the ball without too much mechanical thought. Really frees you up.

My 2012 FX4 has Bilsteins all around. Big fan. They lifted truck about an inch. There are 2 to 3 settings on them, so you can go up or down an inch or two. No need for a level. Add bigger tires, probably gain another 1/2 inch.

Yes: Pools are worth it....
This thread has me kicking around the idea of adding a pool as well. Found a GIANT rabbit hole by downloading Realtime Landscaping Architect (free). It lets you design a pool and then view it in 3D. Once you get the hang of the features, well, it's a giant time-suck. You can add spas, diving boards, features, change the depths, stairs, etc.

Back to back 76s. Playing boring golf, lots of GIR, lots of fairways. Not making a lot of putts, but solid ball striking. 3 rounds ago, I noticed I was getting a bit long in my backswing. Shortened things up, and dispersion is much better.

Got a 14 lb going today. Just pulled it. Will show pics once it's done resting. Cooked from 7 am until 5:30 pm (10.5 hrs). I cut away most of the hard fat cap, I think that helped speed up the cook.

My Smoke got wet, similar to CMan, the display went out. Let it sit for a few weeks, now it works again. Still having issues with one of the input readings, isn't accurate over time. If you take a one time reading it's fine, but starts to increase out of control for no reason over a few minutes. The other side works fine, I use it to monitor my smoker temp. About to pull the trigger on a Fireboard 2, or maybe a Therma Q.

Bought a bottle of Noah's Mill today at Specs. Limit 1. What's the consensus on it?

So, what's the consensus on remote thermometers? My Smoke was great, lasted 3 or 4 years, not bad for $99. Need to replace it.

Still have a 1.75 of Weller 12 I picked up last summer. Haven't opened it yet.

Tale of two 9s today. Shot even par on the front (1 birdie, 1 bogie), then a smooth 44 on the back for 80 overall. Golf, man.

Pretty good cook over Memorial day weekend. My damn Smoke thermometer gave up the ghost halfway through, so had to do it the old fashioned way by touch.

Lots of stretching at home. A few swings on the orange whip. Arrive at course 1 hr early, hit a few putts, 10 to 15 chips, then head to range. 8i to loosen up. Then 10 to 15 wedges. Then 5 or 6 long iron shots. Then 10 to 15 drivers. Back to putting green to work on lags, get a feel for green speed. 1st tee.

Picked up a regular Larceny yesterday for about $21. Is it any good, or is the single barrel that much better?

Yes, for the most part. Took the panels off and got them line-x'd, installed the rest myself. It's pretty easy, really. Makes for good hunting.
