Then give me a bogey lol. Better than double. I'm just saying it should be par for hitting in the bunker and getting a water hazard outcome..

I think that something should be done at least. I got a bad rock glitch and was awarded a bogey for that hole back when TGCTours was run from 1 thread on the HB forums.
Hope all gets sorted out for you.

I hope the score stands. No guarentee you would have made bogey and without knowing how the hole would have panned out can't start deducting strokes because they might have made bogey or better...
Score should stand imo we are all in the same boat. Yes it's crap if it happens to you but think of the person on the top 10 you could knock out because you were given an assumed score 1/2 shots lower than on your scorecard with nothing to prove you were capable of getting bogey. It is what it is and it could have happened to anyone and I feel for you, but I don't think Admin can, nor would it be right to set a precedent here

No guarantee that I would've made a birdie hole out also, wouldn't have been the first time that round..

It would be one thing if I put it 10 feet from the pin on the green where anyone could have 2 putted it...but I didn't. For all I know, I could have had to play out sideways and who knows what the score would have been. I dont expect to get shots back, nor do I think I should. Was just posting so that others would know not to short it.

Was just stating my opinion on the matter as others had stated theirs that I disagreed with we all entitled to our opinions and I respect all that I have read,

I have to disagree with you on that. I know I am coming from the point that I've had a glitch that affected my round also that is no fault of my own.
Since there have previously been people that have been in this boat and awarded a bogey shot for it, there can't be one rule for some and another rule for the rest.
It undermines the competition that has been set up on this ethic.

I'm not aware of anyone have a score adjusted for this type of glitch. The person who said that earlier referenced when TGCtours was run in the HB Studios forums. Well TGCTours never ran in the HB Studios forums. Doyley previously ran a league in the HB Studios forums but that had nothing to do with TGC Tours.

Sorry guys on vacation so tough to keep up. Just an FYI - the score correction being referred to here was in my PGA Tour that I ran before TGC Tours. So it technically doesn't count. Those of you that want us to test every bunker - I will take that as your official offer to volunteer for that newly created position. You can start tomorrow As for those of you getting caught in that bunker I will take it to the admin and we'll vote on it. But I can tell you right now - if you are claiming you got a penalty shot added by going in that bunker you better get video proof. I'll try to get an answer by the end of tomorrow. Unfortunately, I have to go to the beach to watch the sunset!

Ok...the admin team has voted and we have decided on the following:
We will view this as a glitch in the game and if you provide us with video evidence of you having encountered the glitch, we will remove one stroke from your round and verify as such.
If you do not have video evidence from your live round, you will have to get it from your ghost ball for that round.
The procedure will be that you will need to email commish@tgctours.com with a link to the video. Upon approval we will allow you to submit a score with one stroke removed from the round. If you have already submitted a score, we will need to coordinate with you to delete your scores and have you re-enter. Keep in mind that we need to do so before the cut deadline.

This may not actually be a glitch........ Somebody should look carefully at the bunker and see if they can see any water in there due to the bunker being sunk in too much. Just a thought.
