Mea culpa time: So, I slightly underestimated tax/freight shipping on our H&B orders based on the estimate I received, and undercharged everyone ~$11-18 dollars per order. :upside_down_face: I will send everyone a message with their invoices and remaining balances due. Sorry for the hassle, ya’ll.

Based on the tracking numbers on the invoices, though, it looks like some of you received your orders today! :eyes: Mine hasn’t shipped yet so I’m dying to see photos - if you got yours today, let’s see em!

Did H+B underestimate the shipping? or sell you a discount and then take it away? Just curious the behind the scenes.

Not at all, H&B was great but my bad math miscalculated the per-person shipping/taxes.

Next time I’ll probably coordinate placing the order and have H&B invoice everyone for direct payment after learning that is an option!

Both polos are great and I love the weight of the q-zip. H&B fuckin slaps even harder at a discount and the Ohio roost logo looks great on them. Let’s have a season after a real winter, boys! (as golf league was rained out tonight lol)

Question for the group. I recently got new irons and I love them… But the loft on them is higher than what was on my old clubs. Is delofting these clubs a bad idea? Been hitting the Google and have seen a lot of various opinions about it

Are you hitting them shorter distances?

Delofting them will also reduce the bounce. You’ll lose 1 degree of bounce per degree of loft.

I’ve lost some distance but I already was hitting the ball higher than I needed to and these are just higher and I don’t need that

It also adds offset. While there’s not a direct correlation like loft and bounce, it’ll likely be pretty noticeable if you’re moving them more than a degree of loft, depending on the model of iron.

I would have liked to join but can’t make it work. I’ll be out there at 1 PM.

It fees like my golf Christmas is almost here! After this weekend, the flurry of Roost events begins for me with four events in four weeks, and one more shortly after:

  • No Findlay-ing Up 5/17
  • small group Sweetens trip (aka the Cold Beef Invitational) 5/25-26
  • Almost Qualifier 6/3
  • Extinction at Park Mammoth 6/6-7
  • Rust Belt Rumble 6/28

Starting to look at the calendar past June and wondering if we’ll have any other OATW events this year (Tiki, Top of the Rock, etc.)? I’ve unfortunately heard rumblings that there won’t be a Cincy event this year which I’m bummed about, but not quite bummed enough to take on the organizing responsibilities myself :joy:.

Are there any official requirements to starting an event?

I believe the current line of thinking is, “If you build it, they will come.”

What kind of food are you looking for?
