    Chasing Darkness: Episode 374 Aftershow

    The fastest way to start a golf argument is to say “your clubs don’t fit your swing” and then actually bring numbers. We start with some chaotic after show banter about training aids, then slide into the kind of golf club fitting detail that can genuinely change your iron game: delofting, compression, launch angle, spin rates, and why a shaft swap can shrink dispersion even when carry distance barely moves. If you’ve been hitting it lower lately and can’t figure out why the ball won’t hold greens, this is the rabbit hole. We also get honest about modern iron design and “loft jacking” in strong lofted sets. The point isn’t just distance, it’s trajectory control, ball speed, and keeping launch from ballooning with today’s faces and heads. From there we move into wedges: specialty wedge grooves vs set wedges, wedge gapping logic, and what “wedge flex” shafts often really are. It’s practical talk for anyone deciding between a 48 degree A wedge and a true scoring wedge setup. Then the conversation takes a hard turn into brutal, darkly funny injury stories: lazy boy hinges, bike rotors, can lids, jagged metal, and the kind of stitches that stick with you. We land the plane with wind practice ideas and golf travel dreams, from Summit conditions to Scotland budgets to Bandon highlights. If you enjoy golf gear debates mixed with real life stories, subscribe, share this with a golf buddy, and leave a review with the one club change that helped you most.

    Chasing Darkness: E372 After Show

    A single joke about buying a new putter quickly turns into the kind of golf conversation that spirals in the best way: the gear we regret selling, the clubs we can’t stop thinking about, and the tiny build details that only matter because we care way too much. We get into classic putter obsession, from Teryllium-era love to the practical question that hits every golfer eventually: do you stick with a blade because you like it, or switch to a mallet because the numbers say you should?Then the plot twist: a chance connection with Dormie Network ties lights up a full-on road trip planning session. Arbor Links gets thrown on the table, and suddenly we’re mapping dates, debating drive times, and daydreaming about stacking rounds at Landman, Sand Hills, Wild Horse, Ballyneal, and even GreyBull if the logistics line up. It’s equal parts fantasy itinerary and real planning, including the part nobody posts about: stays, refundable tee times, and how quickly one detour can eat half a day.We also go off the fairway into modern golf life: using AI to generate promo art and thumbnails, why some AI images are creepy accurate, and how reselling culture on Whatnot feels different now. The conversation gets honest about overpriced hype, seller drama, and why it matters to not take advantage of people. We close with a story that’ll make you double-check your locks, stolen clubs and launch monitors are a real thing, and it changes how you travel with gear.If you enjoyed the hang, subscribe, share the episode with a golf buddy, and leave us a review so more people can find the show.

    Chasing Darkness: Episode 370 Aftershow

    Seinfeld quotes are supposed to be a safe warm-up. Somehow ours turns into a full-on debate about what counts as fast food, which drive-thru deserves your money, and why certain fries are either elite or straight-up trash. We get way too specific about In-N-Out, Wendy’s, McDonald’s, Burger King, Taco Bell, Del Taco, Raising Cane’s, and especially Jack in the Box, including the one argument that keeps coming back: speed matters, but regret matters more.The real turn comes when the food talk stops being just rankings and starts becoming memory. We go deep on sandwich shops, bread ratios, lettuce wrap workarounds, and the places you miss even if they’re long gone. Then we hit the weird magic of scent and taste, how one random smell can snap you back into childhood, family routines, or a single perfect bite from years ago. If you’re into nostalgia, comfort food, and the psychology of cravings, there’s more going on here than jokes.Because we can’t stay on one track, we also jump into golf life: gear chatter, planning tee times, dreaming up courses, and showing off flags and collectibles that carry real stories. Add a quick sports rant about free throws, a few autograph flexes, and a final stretch where we thank the community, vent about music rights, and uncover a childhood “photo with Mike Tyson” story that is either legendary or deeply questionable.If you like funny podcast banter with golf, fast food takes, Las Vegas local references, and real friendship chaos, hit subscribe, share this with a friend who has strong drive-thru opinions, and leave us a review. What fast food spot are you defending to the end?
