Congrats to all the rookies who made the cut this week on the Euro and TST tours. I find myself spending more 'prep time' on the TST than the Euro. Just curious, how is your practice time allocated between the tgc tours? I do not practice anymore. Basically only play TST, Speed Golf, Euro and maybe few ranger courses throughout the week.

Played a round this morning on oswinner tour and left after my 1st tee shot...with 8mph winds.
Resumed just now and the winds are 17mph....Is a big difference.
I unlucky I guess...but that is more than double.
I dont check HB...But those winds are chalk and cheese.

Now it is 12 mph.
Could be evening out I assume.

What a week! After opening with a 61, I lost all confidence in the 2nd round posting a marginal 71 and really expected to be cut and headed down the road at -12. Turns out the course was tough for most and -11 mad the cut, so I extended my hotel stay for the weekend. After a 65, 62 weekend, it looks like a top 35 finish! Moral of the story for my fellow rookies....you just NEVER know what that cut will be and so just keep grinding away. Congrats to my travel buddy Gary gfoss1986 who continues to have top 50 finishes and is on the cusp of a really high finish. Wish I could hit it as close as he does! With some nice finishes and some winnings coming in, our caddies are most happy to be paid this week. Good luck at Tidewater all!

Hey, I've got an exemption this week, how do I register for the Euro tourney? I'm registered for Web next week but wouldn't mind playing up here!

Congrats goes out to my friend Gary gfoss1986 for his top 10 finish this past week! Brilliant! With his finish and nice paycheck, it was nice that he opted to upgrade from our travel van one of those deluxe RVs. What a sweet ride! So we headed off to Doolough in style. Hey....do you think they will put some water on these greens?? And what's up with the wind machine? Round one.....what? 17-18 mph winds....had to play the wind on putts! For me, -9 was easily one of the most satisfying rounds of the year. But this wind will wear you out, so be patient! Softer greens round 3 gives some relief if we can make the cut! Good luck all.

Thanks Dave, that -9 really is an excellent round, most likely my first missed cut this week but the 64k pay check sure did soften the blow!

Well fellow rookies, I have a tale of last week's action for me. I think I deserve a HALF PAT on the back.
Euro tour -6 missed cut
TST made cut finished 62nd
LGGT, my other tour. Went in battered and bruised.
The LGGT is split between gold and silver members. I am a silver member. The Bradley Garcia's of the world are in the gold division which gives us normal folk a chance. We play a 4 round and 2 round tourney each week.
The 4 rounder was Massara, the TST course of a few weeks ago. I finished -9 -9 -12 -11 for -41 and a 5th place finish.
The 2 rounder was Valgrind and I went in blind. To make a long story short, I shot -11 and -14 (ties my low round ever) and WON, yes I said WON! I know it was only 2 rounds but this is my first victory of any kind since I started playing this great game.
Do I count this as a win? Sure I do in my mind. So give me at least a HALF pat on the back.
Good luck this week! I am going in with a little more confidence.
