Can the event get scheduled on XB? I know I haven't been as consistent playing each week. If it's to much, let me know.. I know the XB players have all but vanished as I seem to be one of the only ones still playing somewhat regularly.. As Wade mentioned Will is away at work so doesn't have access to his Xbox only his gaming laptop. We'd invite you to the Xbox admin Jeff so you can set it up but only the society president al can ad admin to the society in this game. The settings for the tournament are below if you want to set up the rounds on your Xbox and you can post up your scores here so I can add them to the multi platform leaderboard.  As of Sunday, event was scheduled, thanks! |

Just back from 8 days on a mine site. This weeks course looks absolutely stunning from the website (videos and flyovers). Looking forward to the challenge.

Round 2 highlights as follows. The good shots and putts by davec187 , chatting to spectators, the beautiful course, the vistas and the hot dog after nine holes. The lows started when I finally got a descent birdie opportunity and 3 putted. The it all went pear shaped...  |

R2 last night and just finished R3 now. Round 2 - Wanted to test out the slider 7 to 10 footers in both directions on the 2nd hole after being on in regulation. Think I did a good job of making sure how much speed and break was needed with 4 putts there for a double  And then another double on the 7th. Forgot what happened there. Maybe a good thing.  Struck the ball better on the back nine. Had a chance with a close slider putt on the last to get back to even for the round. But didn't play enough break and left it on the low side. Round 3 - Much better with the iron play this round. Have to be precise with those landing areas. Was a yard or two short and saw my ball head back down the slope on some. Started to get aggressive with the chip shots as the driver wasn't consistent off the tee and into the rough. Luckily the putter helped me out and saved a few for pars. Perfect pitch shot on the last was a nice way to end the round. -8 heading into the Final Round.   |

My first two rounds and quite pleased with that on a very tight course. A little careless on the back nine in round two although nearly got it all back on the last, rolled up and hit the pin which could have dropped for an Albatross. Needless to say I then miss the short putt for eagle!   |

Round 3 displayed a difference in class. I thought I played quite a bit better than @pakalolo77 from tee to green, but he still was 2 shot better. And holed everything inside 15 feet. A shoutout to colly for a spectacular 61! PS. And yes, pitchers and catchers has started spring training. DS.  |

Errr well, possibly a glass too much of Aussie Shiraz tonight. Was a bit cloudy.
First 2 rounds was plenty of pars and a sprinkling of birds and a few less bogies. -3 at the half way mark.
All over the place in Rd3 with more birds but lots of dropped shots and a -3.
Rd4 second hole....a brute into the wind. 2 drivers and a 29 foot birdie putt and I thought I was on. Buggered the next hole with a double and never looked like coming back. Ended +1 and -5 overall.
All over the place off the tee and actually didn't fair too badly approaching the green at times but couldn't sink too many putts and only 1 chip in. Lots of near misses.
Good luck all.

Final Round in. Those winds were fierce. That second hole was made even tougher after missing the fairway off the tee. Had some decent chances that just missed. In these conditions, was quite happy with taking pars and moving on to the next hole. Highlight of this round was a 38 foot curler up the hill on the 14th. Had an almost identical putt on the finishing hole but needed just a tad bit more pace, really wanted that one. Finished at -9 Overall for the week.  |

Played the first three rounds this evening, and I am as usual struggling on the greens. I have never been a good links player, so it is now. Not sure what I did to manage to beat @pakalolo77 in our match, but I am not to that standard these rounds. Though, I do play a bit better for each round on the course. Had a very nice chip in from a very difficult spot on the third round - forgot to capture it, though it belongs in the shot highlights. +12 at this point and far behind the rest of the PC field.

Recorded round 3 as I wanted everyone to see how I play but damn Nvidia recorded just 25 seconds. Nice match with @pakalolo77 who's scrambling is great and seems to get birdies no matter where his drive lands. Played Ok myself holed a couple of great putts and played some really good pitch shots including a lip out from 11 yards on hole 1.
Will try to record round 4 now

Playing skins on the courses we played and against your ghost rounds. A lot more fun than against random ghost I don’t know. So I see you play now and again.  Beginning to know your playing styles pretty well. And hopefully learning from you all (PC players). |
