Well - to quote a powerful moment in a film ‘I’m not supposed to be here’......but as it transpires, actually I am!
Fellow CC-D’ers - we can talk it through here!

Hello all,
This will be my first season. Got the game a little more than a month ago. Was a die hard Tiger 2016 player but glad to find this gem and TGC.
I am LOVING course creation. Will be releasing two courses Jan 1 2019. 1. Carroll Creek 2. RCR of Rhodes Ranch Golf Club Las Vegas
I shot -14 using Masters. First four at Bedes was +5 Second four at Pine was -19
Will shoot one round a day on Tue - Fri
Good Luck all! Robert Carroll

Can hardly wait to see how we all make out. I'm not sure but I'm assuming we are cc-pro. I was playing well leading up to this.....had (-27) at Pearl mountain with a 9 on a par 3 and 2 more out of bounds later so I was kinda disappointed when i just couldn't get consistent timing down at holyoke. I think my rounds were -2 -6 -3 -2 __ -13 total
That certainly wont be in the mix. Good luck everyone .....quite windy the first 3 days especially day 3.....17 to 21 mph. No wind day 4

That par 3 with the water on the left, all three of us one after the other, banana 🍌 hook left, splash splash splash! 😂 Bloody tempo! Good luck moving up

Good luck moving up don't imagine I will be moving up too quickly lol......I'm having a really tough time being consistent and I'm going to stick with masters clubs. There are flashes of brilliance for half a dozen holes then mediocrity again lol

Funny......I used to not be able to get enough of playing golf on TGC and I could feel the game and the swing getting better and better.....but on this game I sometimes don't know what to do to make it better......it gets so frustrating that I find 2 or 3 rounds and I'm completely burnt and have to leave the game. Used to play for hours and hours.....not going to happen with this game.....and it's going to show. Hopefully it will reach a point where it's more enjoyable and I cant wait to get back to the game. Good luck boys.....see you on the links.

So I decided to try masters clubs in practice..... I forgot to change them when I went to play my first round. I went plus four my first round. Yikes!

Finished Round 1 at -3.
Birdies the first 2 holes, then couldn’t buy another before I gave a shot back, missing a 6 foot putt, birdied the 16th to return to -3 and into the Clubhouse.
Haven’t much practiced this course, but no excuse. I am just happy to be playing meaningful rounds

Battled the very fast demons all around the course with master clubs. I was aiming for -24 to -30 like in practice but as no shot wanted to go straight I was happy to settle for:-
Round 1: -1 Round 2: -1 Round 3: -6 ( god knows what happened here must of lost concentration) Round 4 : -1
As an Xbox player I am already hamstrung by the inconsistencies. I just wish there was some kind of fix, no other system seems to have blatant swing problems.

-11 after 2 rounds and feeling pretty good, then the wind drops and the quality of my swing and my luck with it. Barely scraped under par in the last 2 rounds which should have been much easier. Ever have those rounds where you're just incredulous at how bad your luck is and you spend the entire time muttering to yourself? That was me today. I should never have started that 4th round after the disaster that was the 3rd, but I thought I'd turn things around...

I should never have started that 4th round after the disaster that was the 3rd, but I thought I'd turn things around... That was me exactly! Started well with -8 and -5 and so was feeling optimistic. Then rounds 3 & 4 happened and I was just so inconsistent. No rhythm, no tempo, nothing straight. Scrambled well but could only just manage under par rounds so ended with a -18. So no positive movement marks for me this week. But boy it’s good to play some meaningful rounds again!!
