Well, boys, a 7th place finish in last week’s E event has brought me into the CC-Pro ranks for the first time on this release (the first Q-school event was torture).
Let’s do this!!! 🍻 Where’re all my familiar faces at?

Testing course, designed for Master clubs. Reckon mid to high 30s wins this week. Got my round done early. Finished -7, -6, -7, -7 for a total of -27. Won't be doing any damage at the top of the leaderboard but hopefully get rid of another of those pesky demotion marks! I did get my first TGCTours hole in one this week. Round 3, 2nd hole... which was nice. Nice Job! That pin is one that can be aced so way to take advantage!

Do the greens stay soft on all four rounds?
I was practicing with firm and that made it very hard

Agree with bosic84 about Master clubs. My Pro clubs are struggling - but that's the compromise (and I suck with Master clubs) in using them so I'm happy to live with it -15 after two rounds, some epic putts and a few 'how did I miss that' moments but really happy with that score. The greens are really challenging as well - big thumbs up on the course from me!

The greens are really challenging as well - big thumbs up on the course from me! definitely a master clubs course. I shot -2 with pro clubs (3 were missed putts inside of 8' including 1 3-footer, so really should have been -5) and I shot -6 with masters. Also what kills me with the master clubs is the short game. with pitch shots, I CANNOT for the life of me get the backswing tempo right. Its always slow so my easy 50 yard pitch shot will end up going 35 yards and usually lands a bunker instead of being w/in 10' of the pin.

Not happy with an opening -2. Casually shot -5 yesterday without even really trying while practicing. Maybe I'll have better luck on the greens with the next pin positions.

OK, so I have elected not to play this week on account of my 2 red demotion marks I received last week. My theory is this...... if I don't play I can not get red marks and be able to play in the Ryder Cup we have going for week 19 & 20 I don't see myself being in CC-D for long. Just being real.

I wish I didn't play this week. I finished -8, not for a round, for the tournament.
Then I shoot -11 at Falcon's Landing, next weeks course, including 205 yard hole out eagle. That's golf...

Felt like that last week, fared a little better this week and hoping I've done enough to clear my demotion mark. The new system is pretty harsh.

I am in a cappy mood anyway so probably best not to listen to me right now.

what makes this system so much worse? I didn't play with the previous one, I haven't done TGC since the original.
