Is nobody here? Good! Third round: -1 (with a 9 at the last hole, not that bad) Fourth round: -1 (a double and multiple bogies as a result of me being stupid) Anyway, next week I will redeem myself and lead the Cloudcuckoolanders by example for once!! ๐๐ Only Cappy by the look of it.

To my fellow Foot Wedgers, I decided to go out an kicked this course's ar$e in round 3. I managed to shoot 12 under with 2 eagles, 8 birdies and 8 pars. It was like night and day between my 2nd and 3rd rounds. Gee this game does my middle aged bald head in.

In my capacity as the newly appointed Head of Complaints, I'm going to have to send myself a sternly worded e-mail.

honeybadger64 What is that smell coming from the 18th green? Oh, that is Bill just finishing his first round. Yes, he stunk, and smelled up the joint. I lived up to my team's name 'hackers'. I had a +1 for round 1. 2 birdies and 3 bogies. I missed five greens, and 3 of those turned into bogies. 33 putts is all you need to know about how many putts I made. Sticking with the masters...sorry Hunter B . ( I would like to borrow the ease of chipping and pitching from the pro set though) I did have an 'old man moment.' I had taken my 2 wood out in favor of another long iron practicing and forgot to put the 2 wood back before the round started. Don't really know that it hurt me though. This course is so much fun, why don't we play it every week?

I will tell myself that I didn't bother wasting a good round chasing Leon's ludicrously good -12, but that is some way from the truth. I limped my way to a -3 with the Northern Ireland Fire Brigade fully occupied damping down all the hole edges I burned on the way through. I really love links courses and despite not being able to see much of it in the third round I really like this one.

Although I haven't played this 3rd round everyone is talking about, I think it is awful to have to play a round that is too dark. The course is 'tough enough'. There could be a bright side to this. If I cannot see the putt line maybe I can make a few putts.

Maybe try adjusting the brightness setting on your TV or monitor.

Well round 2 is in the books. What a rollercoaster ride of fast swings, that included one very fast swing into a 19 mph crosswind that looked a boomerang on the second hole that went 25yds into the rough resulting in a double bogey. The round consisted of 2 doubles, 2 bogies and six birdies for an even par 71. (the only important thing in this post)
My superlative putting continues as I missed birdie putts of 5', 6' and 8'.

Please provide the email address as I have many complaints I would like to get off my chest about this game. Oops I'm on the wrong forum, I'll head over to HB's forum where your complaints are read but not acted upon

Actually, I hate this course's SETUP, but it reminds me of my real life golf somewhat. Every hole is an adventure! Greg, I really don't think you, me or Paul could buy an ice cream cone with our pay. But, we are appreciated...... I think.
