I did wonder where you were J.D. With the new late entry rules you could have got in too! Anyway, -41 overall for me. Had a disappointing -7 to finish. However, I did have this highlight in Round 2... I've been so busy with work, I've had very little spare time for TGC... registering for this week totally slipped my mind. With the numbers you guys on top of the leaderboards are posting, I'm not sure all the practice in the world would help lol. Hopefully I can get in a practice round or two during the evenings, and get back on track with my game by next week. I've totally lost my feel on the greens due to lack of play. This game really is too much like real golf haha. I followed your ghost in Round 2 last night, that albatross was crazy!

-15 current cutline with 11 players needing to play better to bump it to -16. This is going to be close me thinks.
I may have to hop on a plane to get back there to play my final two rounds!

This game really is too much like real golf haha. I followed your ghost in Round 2 last night, that albatross was crazy! You definitely need to be practicing on fast greens. This weeks course and next weeks are exactly that! The worst thing to do on these greens is to hit it pin-high but to the side to leave an awful side-to-side putt. And I must have done that at least 10 times over the 4 rounds. Hate it when you're telling yourself 'Whatever you do, DON'T F&)£)@g HIT IT THERE!!!' The albatross made me forget those troubles for a moment. Makes up for the tons of shots I hit that miss the cup by an inch for an eagle. Get practicing Cuyahoga. That tournament will be anyone's for the taking.

There's only one thing you can do worse than miss a cut, and I did it this week. It seems I forgot to register, and didn't realize it until after completing my first round lol. Awesome course... I'll probably go ahead and play the event, as I definitely need to get some practice. Click the submit score button and assuming there's spots left you can register up until tonight. new as of a few days ago

Took ages to get to the tee off point. And now I'm waiting for the leaderboard to disappear so I can play round 2. Could be a widespread issue.

Yeah, yeah. There is something about this course that is just wonky for me. So many weird bounces into sand/water. Yes a bit of squirt but in once case hit the edge of a sand trap and it went dead sideways into the water. Never had that happen before. Another rock shot for -40 yards.
I really wish HB would figure out what they did with the putting. They claim nothing has been done but since that mouse patch I have had so many putts completely ignore that there was even a hole there, ignore edges and when edges are hit, lip out in very weird ways.
This particular putt is an example. It rolls over the right edge which causes the ball to move left. It does so and seemingly hits the back edge of the hole and somehow goes over the hole moving back to the right? What is even weirder is I went back at the end of that round (no video) to look at it again cause it changes sometimes and this time it spun left like before but all the way around the back lip and went out to the left at a 45 degree angle. According to HB both those shots are 'possibilities' that could happen and it is a known 'bug' that they are aware of that the shot changes. I have old saved shots that were hole in ones and such that when viewed now, completely miss the hole by 5+ feet to the side and rolls 20 feet past.
Something just ain't right.

I get weird lip outs etc all the time even with a controller.
