Nice shot Dave.
It seems the lack of API drama in this thread means the whiners are down to complaining about individual swings this week.

Can’t be any API drama if this weeks star prize was another week in Acapulco. First Class tickets. Regards the golf - tricky week for me. Being away from home on a foreign TV, with WiFi extender broadband, you really miss your home comforts!!! -7 r1. Going nicely till I had 5 slow backswings in the last 3 holes. That sort of stemmed the flow of the back 9. Bogey free, but disappointing. Nice track. I like it. I just couldn’t get close enough / lucky enough, often enough. Regards the pins, there were a few stinky ones in R1. Nothing horrendous, but definitely some that seemed to break the “ranger code” regards slopes near pins as far as I could see. I’m not sure why designers take some of this feedback so personally... ended up looking a bit less than classy from both sides of the coin in the end. Come on lads. Regards Dave (lucky bastard) Preece’s Ace - I think what Mike was alluding to was that a) it wouldn’t have gone in if it was a full swing, and b) it would likely have missed the green. He’s right on both counts as a fully lofted driver that misses he line goes a long way off line, but that’s Dave’s swing and he’s never set off the API... short swing isn’t against the rules Anyhow. I think that’s about everything, should anybody care!!

☝️ "short swing isn't against the rules."
No. but it should be, and probably would be if it could be enforced.
Also, "flicking comical" is brilliant.

I wonder how many folks on the PGA tour go to their local club, pay to rent a golf cart, and just drive around 18 holes and write down scores that they want... @!$# playing the actual game and hitting shots and facing consequences, why challenge yourself?!

So after 2 rounds, I'm P1 on the PC leaderboard (technically P3, but the 2 in front of me aren't "tour approved") - sweet, right? Didn't play phenomenal, certainly not well enough to expect to be leading overall or anything, but should be a solid position heading into the weekend...or is it?
Oh wait...P23 on the actual leaderboard, a full 7 shots back.
Waamp waaaaammmppp

"slight block" . . . That's a good one. Pretty sure you're trolling, but whatever. You aimed 8-10 yards left of the pin with a 3-5 mph left-to-right wind. Your downswing on a fully lofted Driver was outside the channel, and the result was a ball flight that landed ten yards right of your aiming point. Accounting for wind, your outside-the-channel "slight block" only altered the flight between 3-5 yards. That's flicking comical. Full swing line outside the channel and the ball is in the right side collection area, if you're lucky. Congrats. great execution.
Yes, correct, "slight block".
Had I not fully lofted, the blue line would be standard thickness and my swing line would've been pretty much inside the blue line and it would've gone straight where i was aiming. Because i lofted, the line shrunk, and the same swing line now appears to the right of the blue line, ergo the resulting "slight block".
As for trolling, not sure whats up your ass but a simple "nice shot" or even "lucky prick" would've been better received, now you've just come across as a bitter old fart that doesnt like it when someone has a good/fortunate result.
Come on mate bitter old fart? I remember when you where accusing crawsey of being a cheat till you realized he swang like you!

I get short swings as well but apparently not good enough to fail the API.

Thanks for reminding me of my win last week. It felt sweet. I was never anything but congratulatory when you had a win, it's a shame you can't act with a similar decency and sportsmanship toward me.
I'll be happy to make a video of my remaining round in this week's event, showing full swing lines, plenty of swing variation, and my normal scoring if you agree to actually apologize for your complaining and insinuations about my game afterward.

Probably just me but if I had 4 api fails in one season I would just stop playing and avoid embarrassment. Whether it’s cheating or “unfair advantage” pretty much the credibility is gone let’s be fair.
