+8, -2, +4 so +10 after 3 rounds.
Was on 17th tee on 3rd round at +2 for the day, just thinking “don’t find the water”, fast downswing 💧 was going no where else, double bogey but could have been a triple easily.
If I can shoot my 6 handicap last round I’ll be happy enough.

4 under after 2 rounds with some very solid golf this week, 3 missed 8 footers and a 4 footer for birdie in round 1 was frustrating but managed to just finish under par for the round. Second round just the one bad hole for bogie but solid golf otherwise to finish 3 shots under par. Tuffguts the trick is to play your rounds with a few beers not after a few beers as I discovered with my awful play last week . Superb course... Played in 50 mph winds last week irl and this feels tame compared to that, downwind shots are super tough with wedges in those conditions . Hard to believe a 9 iron will travel 35 yards more than you can hit it.

I'm finding that its a whole lot better to not go for the pin, and not be aggressive. But there seems to be a very fine line in doing that, and ending up short of the green, on the approach shot.

So True , the chip and Flop game and long putt on Ultra Sim seems to be the thing to practice most. for me at least. also realizing how important . being below the hole becomes in the Putting game. Still trying to figure out the Distances of certain Pitch shots also. but really enjoying this Style of Play. Gotta finish up my 3rd and 4th Rounds today. seems like this tourney is ending one day early. on PC at least. Good luck

It is really about what club is in your hand and if the pin is front or back of the green.I generally always attack the pins with wedges. Short par 4's with the pin at the front it really makes sense to give yourself a full wedge shot than a pitch in. The greens were soft in round for round 1 and 2 this week which made the very strong winds in round 2 more forgiving. Some long par 3's with the pins tucked to the left or right you just can't go at the pin without a draw or fade.

The ball will roll out more on firm greens or landing on a down slope.

Was disappointed with my score till I saw the other scores on the PS4 leaderboard seems anything under par in round 3 is a good effort

Sorry to any PC members looking to finish their rounds late this week, I have totally messed up the finish date twice. It is over now, bit annoyed as I was playing well this week, was about to sit down and play my final 2 rounds after a day on the real course 😣

Hi all
Can anyone explain how to use TWITTER to post pics on this forum, I have a Twitter account but I have only used Xbox clips to post screenshots , and this is far too large for the page. Do you take a pic of the screen with your phone or can you do this directly from your PC?. I have noticed there is a link to TWITTER on the Xbox clips page but I have no idea how to use this. Any advise would be appreciated
Thanks Terry
