Been playing some good golf for last little bit so was looking forward to this one...that turned in a hurry.
In a turbulent 2 rounds i went +1,-3...which doesn't sound impressive until i mention i scattered in 10..yes 10 mf'n bogeys!
Excuses:
-just finished playing a 4 round society even with soft and slooowww greens. Not a good idea. Blew countless putts under 7 feet.
-horrible course management. Seemed i always had terrible numbers on approaches.
-zero luck. Just rotten bounces.
-xbox!?
As for the course, i actually like it better now as its being used in competition than i did while i was judging it for Erics contest (although maybe it was his "rubric" that made it seem that way! Lol). Almost every tee shot has trouble waiting for you. Don't really feel that pressure doing playthroughs.
I will make the cut the next week. Book it. Good luck the rest of you on this one.

Round 2: kind of the same as round 1. Average. In the beginning some problems with the swing rhythm. Made up some shots on the second nine and ended up at -6.
Round 3: a way more confincing -9. Swing was good putting was good but the wind was also easier. And wasted another shot at hole 12. Really starting to hate that hole 😦.
Now ill probably wait until friday to see where i'm at before i'll play my last one.

Poor last round of -6 leaves me at -32 for the tournament ... should be another promotion tick but I'm disappointed

Wow! I'm sitting T-30 after 2 rounds at -9. Might have a chance of making my first ever Pro Tour cut Fingers crossed, because I shot pretty darn good in rounds 3 & 4, finished on -27

You guys are definitely safe. Only 24 people left to play. If everyone of them jumped you, it would only take you down to 56. Not going to even happen. Good playing. Welcome to the weekend! HAHA

Yeah, unbelievably the cut in this one is probably going to be -5, and the -4s still have a prayer.

Thought I'd missed the cut after a shocking -1 in the 2nd round left me -10. Checked the leaderboard today and I'm 22nd Lots of folk in with a shout of a promotion mark here.

Finally got around to starting. A tough enough course was made tougher as I battled tempo problems throughout. Lots of fast backswings or slow downswings, which seemed odd because I don't think my tempo has ever been off in either of those directions before. Fortunately despite that it didn't lead to any serious mistakes and just kept me from getting the ball anywhere near the pin. Left me with plenty of scrambling, long hopeful two putts, and putts from the fringe. The fact I managed to finish -1 with only two bogeys was nothing short of a minor miracle. I'll probably wait a day or three before playing round 2 and hope that gets my swing back on track.

My struggles continue. Got two demotion marks last week. First round, hole 11 drove right into the rocks and it took me three shots to get out and made triple. Never really recovered: 75-71=146 (+4). Look out below!

Look out below! Exact same thing happened to me on 11. Was sitting at -6 and playing well then boom triple bogey. Ended up -5. Should have taken the unplayable lie. Ended up -17 for the week after just speed golfing the last 18 in about 15 minutes.

Got my first round of the season in tonight. Literally haven't had a single swing since Q school finished and didnt want to miss week 2 as well. Piled straight in and shot a bogie free -7, not going to complain at that! Just need to back that up by not having a second round stinker to make the cut...

Oh crap, is there some sort of hidden message there? The way I read it was, that scheduler is a ass, going to be watching him closely, he is replaceable, if he does not pick more courses to suit me, he is doomed.

Drafting a whole new slew of rules for schedulers...hope you all like fairways the size of football fields! And no water!
