Hope you guys enjoy the course today, took a quick glance through my online societies, and was surprised to see Granite Pass in an event. Gave it a go, but you guys are way better at this game, even with the home field advantage. Great shooting! Hey, I shot a 78 when we played my course. Thought there were some interesting tee shot options from the red tees on Granite Pass, seemed like it would be a good option for the Monday event.

I may have won this last event unless some donkey logged in at the last second and shot -18, which wouldn't surprise me in the least. Mysterious fast swing into the water on 17 tested my patience with this world, but managed to recover.

Weird settings in that least event. Was scout cam meant to be on?
Anyway, I was going along pretty good until I played to the wrong green on 18 with a 1 shot lead. What a bozo. Still managed par but surely that cost me.
Personally, I find shot selection turned off just a complete annoyance more than anything. That and green grids off are just too unrealistic for me to enjoy.

It was supposed to be on, I'm hoping for feedback regarding which settings to use on tuesdays.

Slipped in late and think I may have stole another! Vixen Vikki probably went to sleep thinking she had this one in the bag but the night bandit strikes again! that's my nickname by the way.

Lol well done. I normally don't revisit the results in society events cus I normally find my name too far down π

Needed to make eagle on 18 to tie the lead. ON the green in 2 but left the eagle putt 30 feet short. Bozo.

Good shooting guys.
So today I was -6 through 14, then I hit the pin on my approach on 15 (and not that far above the cup either), and it kicked into the rough just off the green, ended up 3-putting for bogey there. Missed birdie putts on 16 and 17 (should have made the one on 16) and sliced my drive on 18 and ended up with a bogey for -4 overall.
Been having real difficulty finishing my rounds lately, seems like half my rounds I'm several strokes over par on the last 3-4 holes even when I'm sitting well under par going into them.

Enjoyable, if poor round. An ounce of luck and either of us could have contended. Another day ππ¦πΊπ

OK, I've selected next week's courses, I'll set up the events tomorrow morning. Note that if I don't state a pin set it will be pin set 1 (for Tuesday, Thursday, and Weekend events, if I don't state tees, they'll be tips). They will be:
Bloody Monday: Emerald Lake GC True Sim Tuesday: Mein-Notchurs Municipal G.C. White Wednesday: El Dorado Hills G & CC Odd Thursday: Famous Par 3s (9 holes, 2 rounds, Blue Tees, Pins 1 & 2) (and before anyone asks, yes, the 9th hole really does exist) Black Friday: Chambers Bay (Par 71) (Pin 3) Weekend Open: Pewter Dunes (Black Tees)
Scarpacci suggested that we go with all aids off except green grids and shot suggestion for Tuesday; any objections?

For Tuesday I'm going to leave the other putting options on too (putting camera, putting marker) which I feel are kind of necessary (but the putting marker will be Marker Only, so no distance on the marker).
So wind speed, scout cam, and lie grid will be off and measurement mode will be range. We'll see what people think of the event then go from there.

Also note that the White Wednesday at El Dorado will actually be from the blue tees, which are the middle tees on that course.
