1st hole par 5 at Club Deportivo front of green 37y from pin uphill PW flop 40y took some off, swing prefect/fast the ball goes 72 yds I don't get it, obviously [brl] I stopped using the flop a long time ago. Never made sense to me and way to inconsistent. Another tempo swing but sometimes does things that don't make sense.

Well R1 (75) bad fir/gir I think I'm going to leave the tour clubs in the garage for the rest of this one. This was a challenging course. I don't see the scores going too low. In Z anyway. I finished -6 for tourney. I may only use tour clubs with wider fairways but not sure yet. With narrow fairways, if your not dead center or very close to it, trouble.

Never made sense to me and way to inconsistent. Yeah I cannot figure it out. The worst is sand trap next to the green down 20 ft from the hole and 15 ft away. Either goes 2 inches or 50 yards.

I can’t use tour clubs very well... then I get mad and don’t want to play! Haha! So I’m sticking with player clubs. But that also is a problem, especially when you get into the pro tours.. you are at a disadvantage using the player clubs up there. Playing from the back tees is so much harder with player clubs.... or, I just suck!... that IS a distinct possibility!! Regardless... I’m happy I had my time on C, but glad to be here just the same!
Also... I wouldn’t mind playing turn based with you ps4 guys during the tournament. Let me know if any of you want to do that and we can coordinate our times and maybe play the 4th round together. My PSN is the same as it is here.

So first round in CC-D this week was quite a successful one. I shot -7 in a bogey free round, quite good with the FIR's and I've learnt sometimes it's better to lay up for a chip than a long putt. I had a fast swing on my first drive but thankfully the hill at the side caught it and pushed it on to the fairway. I don't know if anyone seen my post about the 14th green on my PR, well I ended up at the same side and got this lovely yellow slope right at the hole. Funny thing was in missed the putting and when I was aiming back towards it the slope was green.

And that right there is exactly why sometimes the yellow slopes get missed - if the ranger(s) who play that pinset hit it where your approach shot finished, they would have failed that pin - and the designer would have been asked to change it to make it green. However - if they hit it where your first putt ended - and so they only see green slopes, then they would see that hole as perfectly acceptable.
Hopefully HB fix that issue for TGC2019 so the colour is the same no matter where you are coming from!

I've seen the same thing when designing a course when it looks fine when sculpting but when testing there's a yellow slope. It goes to show the rangers can only do so much when checking courses. Just thought I'd bring it up and show it's the game that can cause problems.

Never mind on figuring this game out.... -2 in round 2. Absolute BS putting.
-6 in round 3 brings me to -20. Not going to be near close enough to win on CC-D.
Another -2 in round 4. Second week in a row I’ve blown a good opening round.
