warhawk137I think your right, I'm going to have a crack at the PGA Champs, who knows, if by some miracle I make the top 25 I will earn a world tour card and skip C, B, A, Web, Euro, PGA, wow that would be something lol

Warhawk, definitely a job well done on the course. I had been practicing from the tips all week and getting the feel for it and then went into the first round and that 12-13 MPH gave me a heck of a time trying to stick my approaches. I scraped out a 66 though with a few missed putts and then put up a 62 in the 2nd round.
I'm only in my 3rd week of having the game but starting to get a feel for the tempo. My next hurdle is going to be switching to the tour clubs. I started using those when I first got the game and was all over, I took some advice and went to the player clubs until I get a feel for it. Hoping I can clear my strikes this week, we shall see!
Good rounds Tenahka! Setting a high bar for us on CC-D! I'd take your shot at the PGA next week though, you only get 4 majors a year to play in.

This reminds me that you'll have to use Tour clubs in the PGA Championship. So, hopefully you can handle those OK.

Well done Chris! I also would take the PGA Championship over an exception as well. Shot my second round and fired a 62. So -9 after 2. Looks like a 3 round tourny this week for me. And that is never good.

Had a solid week going, 3 straight -7s so I was sitting 21 under heading into the final round. Went ice cold on the back 9 and rattled off 3 bogies. Maybe the pressure got to me. Ended up -2
So I’m sitting -23 for the week. Should be enough to clear my strikes but that’ll be it. Am thinking a strong 4th round could have given me a shot at exemption so I’m bummed. Oh well, what can you do...that’s golf! Seems so hard for me to knock off 4 good rounds in a row.

Oh well, what can you do...that’s golf! Seems so hard for me to knock off 4 good rounds in a row. I did the same thing almost exactly. The back 9 of the last round probably cost me the exemption status. Made 2 bogies in the last 3 holes coming in that dropped me back to -23. Funny thing is that the winds weren't that bad and pin placements were fair. I just didn't hit very many accurate second shots. Oh well. that should definitely clear my strikes.

I have been using tour clubs now for my last 2 tournies. I was finally confident enough with them to unleash them on tour at Pebble Beach... I think they are part of my form boost!

I also said I would need to shoot lights out to get back into what has turned out to be a 3 round tournament for me and in my second round I did shoot 10 under 62 to be -9 after 2. Just played my 3rd round and shot a brilliant 58!! Which has me now at -23 with the 4th to still be played ! Fingers crossed!!

@tenahka I agree with the others, I'd go for the PGA! sounds like you probably already decided that though.
warhawk137 I just realized you are the designer, personally want to tell you great job!
And as for my score, I thought since I started well I might finally have a shot to get out of CC-Z. but alas, R2 was not good to me! I shot a 74 and played bad enough that I felt very lucky to even get that. For some reason I was hitting everything to the right tonight, and when I tried to play it that way, it would be the one time I'd hit it left. LOL Weird to say, but I also think I play better in the windy conditions than I do without it. Maybe its the wind that corrects my bad shots. hahaha!
