I have done the same thing before, but only 3 VF's in a row, not 4....LOL! The PGA is ridicules, looks like the cut will be at -21. Props to all you xboxer's. Those scores are crazy good with our tempo. Shot -9 in round one and really let a couple get away. I'm still very much fighting my swing, however with the conditions in round 2 this week on PGA, it's prime for some low scores, and I'm going to need them. Z3NZ is playing lights out golf at the moment and representing the XB1 community very well. Strong made cut by him. I'm hoping to join him! Sometime in the near future I'll try to stream my rounds so if anyone wants to take a look they can. I tend to play a bit later because that's when I have time after kids are in bed and such and I know that can be difficult for some of the European folks, but I'll let you guys know when I'm able to try to do that! Keep fighting guys! Sorry to hear about the VFs BENNY6676 . Probably would have made the cut too. I know the feeling when I missed the cut 2 weeks ago... 18th hole, par 5 and all I needed was a birdie to make the cut. Pretty sure it was the 18th stroke hole too. VF off the tee and that was it lol. Thanks for the kind words killahbeaz132 ! Good luck in your second round this week, hope to see you playing on the weekend too! I'll be sure to follow you on twitch so I can catch you playing your rounds. If our schedules ever line up, we could potentially play our rounds together at some point!

Missed cut for me this week. Tempo wasn't great but course conditions were easy enough in the 2nd round to still shoot low. Would've been fine if not for something ridiculous happening with tempo on the 16th! VF off the tee, VF approach plugged in the sand to the right of the green, VF out the bunker and ran through the green, VF chip, missed putt then tapped in just to watch the cut disappear in 1 hole! Double bogey ffs! Had to laugh otherwise I'd have launched my Elite controller lol! -11 for the round and -19 through 2. Good luck at the weekend those who are there! 👌👍 Same for me. I don't know how many P/F shots i made. Maybe 10 or more on 1st round for a poor -6. I played directly the 2nd round and P/P arrived. But too late to reach the cut.
I don't know how you guys can make putts like the ones i see when i play against your ghosts ? I don't know if there are tips, but my poor succes on long and medium putts prevent me from doing better scores when i have tempo issues. I'm condemned to hit perfectly or scoring @§!# under 6 or worst.
Good Luck Adam ( Z3NZ) ! i like watching you on twitch, you're cool and funny man Brandon ( killahbeaz132) i bet my house you will make the cut...no problemo ! May the force be with you

Putting is the thing that's most important on this game. Just keep playing and your putting will get more consistent 👌👍🏌

Thanks nick80! I was actually able to make the cut. Shot a -14 in round 2 to get me to -23. So I made the cut. I'm hoping for a really hot round 3 because that seems to be the round that people have struggled the most so I could make up some ground and see if I can compete for a top 25 at least. I watched Z3NZ play his 3rd and 4th rounds last night and I know the conditions in round 3 aren't the greatest so it's going to take some really good shooting to handle it! Also nick80, do you have your line straight in the middle of the blue every time when you putt? I mean I know it's probably not perfect every single time but the key for putting is making sure you hit that line as straight and consistent as you can. That way you can start hitting putts and figuring out lines better. If you're missing hitting that straight line (which I still do a bunch), then it's hard to know exactly if you're reading the greens right or not because putting really is a game of inches so that straight line matters most there. Also, just pay attention to the green speeds. Moderate greens tend to break less. The faster the greens the more break you need to account for. Just like BENNY6676 said, the more you do it, the more comfortable you'll become out there, so just keep at it!

Most of the time all my shots are straight on the blue. It's certainly my strong point on this game. I don't have to manage deviations other than by fast or slow on top. Very fast and very slow are really rare, so no complain But how many perfect and just fast on top !? Sometimes I feel i have to find a new tempo every day. This game is gonna make me crazy.
Thanks guys for your advices and encouragements.
I think i just have to gain experience to improve my putting game and avoid frustration.

As long as I can keep my play up and not completely bomb, it looks like we'll have at least 4 players make the cut and I'd be willing to bet on at least 5 when Z3NZ plays his rounds too. Doesn't sound like a lot but 5 XB1 players making the cut on PGA is good. It's good to see us show up out there! Keep playing well fellas!

Just a horrid second round for me. Sad story after the blistering first round I had. However -21 at the cut isn't terrible and 2 good rounds on the weekend could find me in the top 10 again. Will try to stream the rounds as well and now I'm actually saving the videos (didn't know I had to check a setting for that lol) so you can go back and check them out if you want. The one from last night also has the first 2 CUCC rounds as well on there, and those didn't go so hot either. Keep firing guys!

Could I ask for a playing partner one day, maybe someone who can watch my stream and see how I play and maybe what I do wrong?
