What did you build today?

Par4QC Thought you just had those eyes re-done?
No green in any pics.....bright-assed yellow.
They fixed the focus but can't do squat for color perception.
They don't say which color they are. Look more goose crap green to me. They still look good. I'd hit 'em. My favorite Volvik ball was that color and they called it green. You could tell it from a bright yellow ball from a long way out.
Speaking of DTG I just received a FGS UL 45 A flex shaft to stick in my gayazz blue 18° Sooolong driver. This is the first golf purchase in 2 1/2 years. My left arm and shoulder are still screwed up but I am going to try to put something I can bludgeon around the course in some fashion just to be able to get out on the course. My vision of having any kind of real game is long gone but maybe can at least get out and enjoy the day with my buds. I really miss it. The last two seasons I tried a bucket of balls on the range and just gave up. This year I am not going to the range, just jump in the cart on the course and go and do what I can. Will pick up and just ride if I start slowing anyone down.

You've been around golf long enough to know...there is a swing for every budget. You'll find a way to get it around the course. Might be ugly, but hell, it's still golf. Outside, nice weather, buddies.
If nothing else, you can always go in from 50 yds., then putt.
Guy I work with has a golf partner that had a stroke. They allow him to use this in the league they are in

I agree but the big if is if I can swing with no pain. My shoulder is a mess. I get a lot of pain from just doing simple movements. If I can do any kind of swing with no pain I can work with that. If it hurts it's a no go. We will see.

Uh, no. Not for me.

Good on you Rick! Reset your expectations, try to enjoy the camaraderie and hopefully the good shots! Welcome back!
It’s seriously a good way to ease back in..

I have a roll but haven't had a chance to use it yet. I hope is will help my shoulder as I have shit moving around doing snap, crackle and pop and maybe it will limit some motion.

Typhoon Mine came in a roll of 1" x 12" strips. I put some on my shoulder last summer to wear around for the day. They are a pita to put on and having help makes it easier. Your skin has to be squeaky clean or it will come off. I plan to clean the area with alcohol next time with the help of my wife. I have looked everywhere for a thin lightweight compression sleeve for the shoulder but they are all too bulky or restrictive made more for injury recovery than flexible use. Also none come in a 3x. One size fits all never fits. I have some Tommy Copper compression sleeves for my knees that are thin and are wonderful.
Haven’t built this yet but I’m undecided if I should install a double bend shaft or use my mini slant neck. Currently using a spider with a mini slant neck in it….

No building technically…but rather “modification”…
Cut down the Alpha C2 forged / @LogicalOne 85S combo to standard length (37” 7 iron) and made a grip change (wedges included) with some +4 tour velvets instead of Dri-tac 2.0…
I originally built this set to + 1/2” to try out…but have noticed after a few rounds that it is affecting the lie angle too much for my liking…toe up and too many balls left of target…so I went back to standard length…we’ll see how this change plays out tomorrow morning starting at 10:21 local…may still need to go flat a degree or two but we’ll see…baby steps…
