honeybadger64 Good news first...went to play real golf today. I shot a -1 on the front 9 and a +4 on the back for a 75. Great weather today in NC as we started in the lower 60's and finished at 71 degrees. Played in 3 hrs and 30 minutes. Good news/bad news...got my refrigerator delivered but it had 2 dents in it. They left that one for a loaner, and are getting me another one. Bad news... I had to return to play my rounds in pixel golf. I hit not 1, not 2 but 3 balls out of bounds due to a VF downswing on my way to a +3. Something is not right when I score almost the same in real golf as I do in pixel golf. I am glad some of you like this course but I don't. As I played my real round of golf, I wondered why we can't play realistic greens anymore in pixel golf. I am switching to pro sticks for the last 2 rounds and just try to finish as I do not want to see this course again.

Lone sniper rounds played & much better than my first two...... 8 under par on the far easier moderate / slower settings (much more enjoyable too) 3rd pin. 5 under par to wrap things up..... Need to thank my captain (Leon) for carrying me (wounded) whilst earning points in the pairs. Waiting now to see if I've done enough to keep my regiment happy!!? No worries mate.

honeybadger64 -9 for the 3rd round. Just trying to keep the red ticks away and maybe steal a point for the Grumpies.

Update from the tempo-hell front: Reset my stock controller: no change. Rebuild database of my PS4: no change. Bought a cheap Nacon wired PS4 controller: felt very different - it is smaller and no extension, so have to get used to it BUT... my very first round, using Master Clubs was a bogey-free -10 😂😂😂 So, sorry guys, but I will NOT retire and will be back next week. Best wishes Frans Hi all, Here’s an update on my tempo/controller-saga: After playing a second round with that Nacon thing - first round of TST - the storyline changed! Some people warned me that using that flashy thing could get me in trouble with the API; something I never thought about when buying it - just wanted a wired controller and this was the only one they had. I contacted the administrators and asked them what to do. Interestingly, that TST round with the Nacon controller passed the API. The administrators were surprised it passed and wanted me to play some more rounds with it. I did, and I started noticing that hitting it straight, especially on putts, became easier and easier. In the end, based on the administrators telling me this controller was likely to get me in trouble and my own observations that I was getting straight lines on shots that really did not feel that straight, I decided enough was enough. Bought a new Sony controller and Play & Charge cable and tonight I could play my second round of TST. The end of it all: I now have three (3!) controllers of which I can only use one - a beautiful red Sony dualshock V2. I still can’t putt. And... I don’t care because with that red beauty and cable I can now hit p/p again more often than not. 😊 Oh, and thanks to Art’s stellar round, my beard has grown and grown, so I am ready for next week!!!

honeybadger64 Final round -5. It is over. Now, I wait to see if I got any red ticks, and I am sure I got 0 points this week. Sorry Grinders. This was not a fun week for me. Good luck to all players with rounds to play.

I just glanced at the leaderboard. It looks like VctryLnSprts Victor is having some hard luck in his matches this week. That is life in the Dirtbag league. Most of us have been there.

Why is it unfortunate? Are we not teammates?

Another crappy round boys. Very sorry. +4. Not sure what it is that is causing me to be pure trash on this course, but I am. Side note, played my round with a random ghost, turn order on and this guy has a +31hdcp. Now I know why. Guy chips on the greens . 3 times this guys chipped. Avoid WhitesoxDavk10

Fired in a -8 for the 4th rd to finish on -29 for the week. Just couldn't quite crack the -30 mark, it was within my grasp, but fluffed a couple of holes over the week. Could even have a promo mark ?
