   44 over PAR I surrender , need a lot more practice before next week. to be honest I lost the will to live and started to just use this event to try different shots, I think the game is great though and its all down to me ,no excuses LOL more concentration needed It sure feels like its a lot easier to have a bad hole than in TGC2019 - but when swing is on its pretty similar with slightly better ball physics. I think that the shaping without loft box is actually a lot better than in 2019 even if Im just starting to dabble with intentional fasts and slows. |

Little request to everyone, after you complete your round could you post up the post round leaderboard for your platform. Just gives everyone an idea of scores and helps with that disconnect between platforms. Thanks 👍

I just want to say to anyone here getting down about their scores , this game is tough this course is tough and you need your A game just to hit par. This is not an ultra competitive society but one that wants to play as realistically as possible. All members have a say here as we are a close knit community in my view. I am lucky to have so many admin here to be part of the process and it feels like a well oiled chain, I am really excited for season 3. Handicap leaderboard will come in in week 3 for those who have played 8 tournament rounds. We will also be bring in team handicap matchplay again this season later on. This society to me is about having a fun competition for every member above everything else.

Usual rubbish, 3 putt on 1st from 3 feet set the scene, bounce back birdie then water on 3rd...

Learned 3 lessons today, you can't go in cold to your rounds you need a warm up. You can't speed golf and the 63 yard pitch distance LW is a total waste of time for pitch shots under 30 yards. The 4th round front 9 is the worst I have played on this game, at least I can take some solace that I got it together for the back 9. A few lessons learned, bright spot was to witness mcbogga 's fantastic fight back on the back 9 of round 3. Annoyed because I left it too late to complete my rounds this week.    |

As we wait on the PC final leaderboard. The current XB1 and PS4 final leaderboards have an average score of +18.6 The low scores are there to make. If I can shoot -4 over 9 holes they have to be... But this course is a bit wierd with plenty of short par 4s but monster 3s and 5s. Its a great course but not really standard Template. Also I wish HB would let us choose tees per hole and round for some interesting set-ups going forward. Plenty of courses where the par 3 pins are set to be played from different distances. But since they can’t even get it right on their official tournament set ups the chances are slim I guess... |

I very much doubt we will see much of -40 total tournament scores in this season. We need to pressure HB to get the tee choices for the next game - I doubt they will patch that this time. But more important - are proper penalty areas and drop rules. That for me is the number one thing to get in the game. |

Most importantly 15 to 20 yards are out of the question with the distance 63 Y LW. I have changed back to the 53 Y LW and SW shorter clubs as the longer clubs are too long for any feel around the green pitch shots. Shame because my distances between clubs for full shots was spot on. |
