Yes, and that although all her life she hated playing sport and board games, except featherball.

I suspected featherball to be badminton, but I had to look it up. :D

"Betterknower...!" :D

Today I played my first round of 18 in under 100 strokes. :D :yeah: :har:

How completely I have underestimated Golf. Never expected the complexity in it. I am totally addicted now and 18, 27 or 36 holes every day.

I appreciate that the courses look and feel qwuite differently, have different vibes and mood and atmosphere, i enjoy that ver ymuch, but you really have to buy some of the pro courses, the three fa nasy courses they incldued are not good and just prive a very rudimetary surrouding. I bought also Kiwalah and found it to play inbcredobly otugh, while my lastest addition today was East Lake and played very relaxed and "kind". I left out 4 or 5 courses which by the videos and looks to me looked a bit too monotonous. I had bought Pinehurst No.2 and found it to be very boring, every fairway looks like any other, and there is no change in the landscape, so I learned to look closer when considering a new course. 14 more courses they want to release over the coming year.

Golf+ is a must have in VR, me thinks. And real golfers say its extremely realistic.

-----------------------------------

I also already smashed the equipment once, I forgot to re-center several times, and then struck the leg of my working table with full force (1st drive...). The club adapter however is made of carbon and glass fibre (its about weight distribution and swing feeling of mimicking a real club, it has a weight at the tip of the adapter while the club is made as light as was possible). The stick did not even get a scratch although I must have struck with 60, 70 km/h, but the controller left the arrestor seat, the safety line ripped off and the device smacked against the wall at still 40 or 50 km/h I would estimate. And you know what? It did not break, it still works, all buttons and the ministicks work, the accelerometer also did not suffer, apparently. Maybe over months and years he longevity now is reduced, I dont know, but its some days ago and the thing so far still works as advertised. Wowh! Show me a pocket calculator that survices if you smack it with full power against a solid wall.

And this "brand story". It seems they have a name for everything these days...

They use San Francisco as their map, I wonder what smell you get when you fly over the sidewalk? LOL

^ I have heard of somethign like this years ago, but never saw one. :)

You're supposed to be drinking gin and tonics.. :nope::smug:

That just sounds like an excuse for not closing that Consultant deal.

So that I smack the table again...? :doh:

Just came back from the doc. My back is hurting, really badly, whole night long and yesterday aleready, muscles feel like a razorblade put inside between the fibres, and when move arms and neck in a certain style, or bend and bow my torso. The doc asked if I practiced golf in the hall, maybe? I said: "Sie Scherzkeks!" I said so and so, virtual golf and all that. He stared at me and said: "Selber Scherzkeks!"

Well, its official by his diagnosis, I played virtual golf and now suffered some muscle strain problem typically found in real golfers wo went beyond that certain limit a bit. Stems from that powerful and fast body rotation when driving the ball.

No golf for one week at least, he said, possibly longer. Dieser Scherzkeks...! I dont find this funny.

Were you trying the Happy Gilmore golf swing?
:o

Better warn your mom not to overdue it. :hmmm:

You should try a safer hobby.

Sorry Marc :oops:
:03:

I did practice just any swing - too many, too hard. I find it difficult to eat distance without mainly spiraling a slice to the right, sometiomes a draw to the left if I do over-correct. Its - tricky, I understood the theory how to stand and move your hip and grab the club and when to hit and so on - putting all that into action while going all power in, that is beyond theory a bit... The longest golf shot ever was done by a former baseball player, name is Dobbyn. He drove the ball to a fabulous range of 551 yards, that is 504 meters. :o You can run, but you cant hide...

Isnt it amazing that something like this, simulated, can match the real thing this far-reaching? Just using a controller wouldnt allow that, you need one of these top class adapters.

My Son has a Golf simulator in his garage.
It has a big screen that he drives real golf balls into and a scanner setup that does the math and all that stuff. So he's useing his actual clubs and such.
:o
