Looking like a -11 cut? I'm shocked it's that bad after the first round scores. Wind was up more in round two compared to round one

OK, so I done goofed.
Was sitting on the 18th tee in R1 at 9-under. Looking in great shape when I get a VF off the tee and slam it into the bank of the bunker on the right - about 190 to the hole. No problem, I can hit a 3i up on the green and 2 putt for par. Well that bank was deceptive. It pushed my ball about 30 yards further left than I thought (even with a F/F pull) and I go into the water after a few bounces. Thanks to HB's amazing drop feature, I get put back on that same severe bank. I'm still trying to figure out how to blame HB for my next shot, but suffice to say, I manage to do pretty much the exact same thing again. And back to the sand trap I go. So this time, I think - let's just play it real safe - I aim so far right that I figure I'll still be 40 yards right of the green...but no, I just miss the right side of the green (safe thank goodness), chip up and tap in for Quad-bogey.
Couldn't recover in R2 and it's another missed cut! I would have made it with a par on 18...the life of a mid-range Euro player!

Well guys...after a cut made and much tempo frustration for a long time, I'm turning in my laced up shoes, nice shirt and polo pants for.....then beginners tour. I can't say I'm mad, but just the opposite. I just want to make this game fun again. The tempo problems I've faced on PC have killed scores and taken some fun out of the tours every week. I'm a competitive person and try my bestest every week but I can't compete with you fine folks, I have succumb to the realism that I will never scare 1st place, but just the opposite. I'm just fighting to make cuts, and when I do, it's not pretty, lol. If you need me, I'll be shooting darts with my putt putt clubs in the beginners tour until I feel something changes. Cheers folks! It's been fun!

If it get's played out, I'll just go through Q-school again.

Well had a great start, sitting top 10ish through 3 rounds and for the second straight week, play a very sloppy round 4 🤷♂️. Overall pretty happy with it, and kudos to whoever made this track, it was fantastic. See you all next week.

Two things. First all .. I think congrats to Deathstar for his first win!!!! Well played. Second of all, it looks like I'm off to the PGA with Deathstar, tho I think he should still have to get one more win on the Euro before moving up. Been with you all from the start of the season. Been close to leaving a few times but now it looks like I finally earned my big boy pants. You all enjoy yourself, hope to see some of you (not all of you, mind you, just some of you..yeah you know who you are!! ) on the PGA soon. Cheers and thanks for the fun!

Yeah this is pretty apt Larry from what I was reading. I guess I'm ready to jump into the fire pit of doom.
