144 green speeds did me in - will likely miss cut again this week - +2, -1 , for +1 at the cut - hopeful, but don't think that's going to 'cut' it !

Pretty easy course this week. Finally played well at -27. Putting is getting better.

Bad week for me this time around. Could only manage to scrape together two -2 rounds and will probably miss the cut, some great scores out thete. I couldn't get used to the speed of the greens and my tempo was very erratic, which was disappointing as I'd been having reasonable consistency the last week or two, and it's definitely a course I could score low on if I played to the level I can. I played 6 holes in the third round and was -2, probably helped that I find the quicker greens easier to putt on. I'll wait and see if I somehow make the cut before playing any more though.
At least both rounds were under par so even though my tempo mostly sucked I have improved at saving par.

Just moved up this week from CC-E. Unfortunately had a bad week. Was just -6 through two which at the moment barely makes the cut.
If I do my third round was great -9, then all hell broke loose. Round 4 I was cruising and suddenly decided to tin-cup it and took a 10 on a par 4. Somehow still shot -3. For a -18 total. Could have been -24, which may have gotten to a promo mark, but on to next week at this point.

Finished -12. Not exactly what I had in mind after posting -8 in R1, but the 144 greens in R2 got the best of me and I struggled with a +1 in R3. R4 finished -4, but probably had 4-5 strokes I left out there with putts missed by inches. Onward.

Thankfully I avoided the usual implosion on my final 2 rounds - finished with a 65 to be -20 for the week. Happy with that, probably my best 4 consecutive rounds so far. Not enough for a promo mark but heading in the right direction after a poor performance last week.
Was a bit of a par fest with only 2 holes over par (water). Was hitting high 80% GIR - if I could have sunk some putts could have been a lot better.
Good luck to those yet to finish.

Got promoted 2 weeks ago and have laid an egg back to back weeks.
Finished at 3 under. I'm thinking scores will be high this week but 3 under is not competitive. Hopefully I make the cut.
The wind, fast greens, water and OB is lethal out there, good luck all.

-4 first round. 7 birdies and could have been a couple more if not for crappy putting. The 3 bogeys didn't help either. Nice course though.

Look, I know I am a terrible player, but this course has some questionable OB which makes it even more difficult for players like me ..... Red Stakes are no OB, I believe??? This is hole 12 and the OB which is actually a water hazard comes into play on hole 11 also. How do I know this, I was in the rough, not the water on 11 also yet was OB.... Red stakes? Why is it OB there anyway??
So, this was a practice round and I said to myself, "Self DO NOT play this course or you will get double demotion marks.!"
Beautiful looking course to be certain, but not my thing and OB usage is not great. Yes, there is more OB usage that come into play so good luck out there this week. I for one will skip this and drink instead. Thanks, but no thanks!
Clearly NOT OB or past the Red Stakes which are not OB!!!!

Didn't have a great time second round, hit +5 so total is +1 after two rounds. Probably miss the cut again with that.

Not that I have to defend my course but there is a reason about the “OB” sticks and how they are actually hazard markers - tgctours.proboards.com/thread/25685/week-world-golf-hall-acadia?page=2 I guess I have a different understanding of what red stakes and white stakes actually mean. I'll agree to disagree about that. Thank you for trying to explain.

Likely another missed cut this week - tried to play safe and keep out of trouble - which I did, but putting let me down again. +3/ +2, probably not playing the weekend..
Good luck E-zers !!

Absolutely screwed myself on 3rd round. E/-6/+6/-4 That par 3 with the waterfall on the right I think it’s hole 7? Anyways got an 8 after shanking 2 in a row off the tee into the waterfall on my third round..
