After some more playing... I have played 6 practice rounds here. The problem, for me, is the worst on the greens. I power it past the hole sometimes, and then when I go to lag it near dead weight I come up short. I know that sounds like whining, but alas... My 6 rounds are -8 -8 -8 -8 -6 -2. The worst was the -2, but I just played another round with the lag and got another of my -8's.

Bad framerate for my swing style it takes me ages to hit the ball, therefore I have to change it just to play this course :*. Happened once already this season with another course and it wasn't pretty! Have no hopes for this and I really hope I don't throw my controller away whenever I take 1+ min just to take one shot lol I'm having horrible framerate issues on this course as well, probably the worst out of any course I've played. I haven't made it past 6 holes... it takes probably 15 swing attempts before my swing even registers. In order to get the swing to register, I have to slam the joystick forward, which causes lots of errant shots for me. Does anyone know if there's a way to fix this on the PS4? I'm having these problems even after removing ghosts.

I feel for some of you guys but not too much since yall are posting better rounds than I have had on the two times I've played this course.
I'm on the PS4 and do get a little frame rate issue every now and then but nowhere near the level some of you have described.
It seems to be more off the tee box for me, but it hasn't really impacted my swing.

I've just had another go and it seemed a lot better than yesterday so maybe it was an internet connection thing. Still a bit slow but bearable.

Luke it might not be me LOL. I played around on it last night and the lag is horrific. Like Wvridgerunner said, there was many a times where I had to make many swings to get it to go. I would say there was maybe 4-6 holes where there wasn't a lag problem.
I did a lot of start and restart just to play some of the front nine over so I think I completed 1 round at like -3 or -4 under but practice and just see how the course plays. i think I have the front side down, it is the putting that is going to kill me as a stoke i make on a 8-10 footer acts like a 15-20 footer! I dont really know how to deal with that.
my notes said it is bad on 2, 3, 4 ,6, 10, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 18. The ball popped over the hole or the speed wasnt where it should have been with the putt. I'll just have to make sure to be careful. 1 doesn't matter as that is a flat putt, but there is slow down there too.
forgot to mention that this was in winds between 8-15 mph

Well I managed to finish the tourney late tonight/this morning... course played much smoother than my practice rounds. Still lost 3-4 strokes from stuttering during a few putts, but overall it was tolerable, even with ghosts.
Winds were 2-5mph my first 3 rounds and 6-10mph in final round. I left a few shots out there, but I think my first CC-A tourney will be a top 20 finish. If the winds stay low, and other players don't have framerate issues, there should be some really low scores (-45 or better).

I just finished my tournament up. I was doing pretty well 2.5 rounds in. I was atop the current leader board. Then lets just say my wife asked me to start watching the kids and it messed with my mojo. After watching them, I finished up my tournament and blew it. I shot a 72 my last round. Is it ok if I blame my wife and kids for knocking me out of what I think could've been a top 10 finish?
I agree that around -45 will win. I'm frustrated with my putting the last 2 rounds and I'm not sure if it was the framerate issues or just bad playing, but my last round my swing was just not in sync. I think I shot 40 on the back 9 and hit it in the water 3 times in my final round. Aaargh! The course in general was well designed. Pretty easy for the most part, if you played some practice rounds. I played enough practice rounds that I knew which side of the greens to hit to. There were a few backstops on the greens, as well. A lot of ridges you have to keep your eye out for. I like these type of design characteristics. If you don't know the greens or don't keep an eye out for these ridges, you could have a long round ahead of you.

Played my 4 rounds all in a row. Had 3-9 mph winds in all 4 rounds. Shot within a 3 shot range between the 4 rounds. Pretty much as my practice rounds went. I'm hoping its good enough for top 70.
Good luck to all.

Can't wait for the API stats to be available here. I LOVE STATS! cant wait either.
I was about to not play this week due to the framerate problems for my swing, but I did anyway. Have played the first 2 rounds and I was right, it didn't go great as id hope haha. First round I had at least 3 holes with 3 putts where I had a easy birdie chance but somehow ended up sending the ball miles away . Still managed to shoot a decent under par score, but I'm sure not enough to have a chance. 2nd round was a bit better, where I had a 13 birdies but many bogeys that ruined eveverything ! A couple of them even started as a birdie chance again buuu
My rounds were windy, I think. Don't remember exactly, but wasn't anything near 1-3 mph hehe
Anyway, good luck everybody. I am happy we are playing again!!!
