I haven't played any tourney's for a while after a family illness and bereavement, and I must admit I am not missing it.
I play say nine holes once or twice a week and that's it. I don't know whether my mojo will come back but at the moment it's so far away I can't even see it.

I can totally relate. I've been playing The Golf Club for a year and a half and been a member here since January, have played every tournament since joining. I'm kind of at a low point of enthusiasm for the game myself. Though feel like I may be on a bit of an uptick and enjoying it a little more than a few weeks ago. I find it hard to keep at it when my results are average at best. Even though its "just a video golf game" the competition and desire to win or finish high on the leader board is very real. When you play week in and week out and the highlight of your hard work is not getting a strike or demotion gets kind of stale. I still plug on, play many practice rounds and try and refine my skills and do my best in the tournaments. But there is a difference for me, used to be a 4 round tournament would finish and I would say to myself wow can't believe thats over. Now it's "I can't wait till this is over. Still love the game, still will keep at it, I just wish for an update to the game to make it a little different...most notably John, I am getting bored and tired of the same old lines ("oh so close" oh I though that was going to drop") over and over. They need a dialog update in a huge way. I can't just turn him off though, I do kind of need some sort of noise/chatter to keep me engaged. I may do a quick round on the Yuchi (spelling way off) course today just to get a look at it, but then off to Fallout 4. I haven't played any tourney's for a while after a family illness and bereavement, and I must admit I am not missing it. I play say nine holes once or twice a week and that's it. I don't know whether my mojo will come back but at the moment it's so far away I can't even see it.

Finished the final standings for Q-School and I came in at T24 for another top 25 finish. I'll take it.

You guys can always join me anytime you see me (not sure how that works if I'm in a round) But I don't have a mic/headset so you may as well play my ghost ball lol. Been perusing some sites looking at which headset to get.
Back to the OP topic.
How the hell did my -4 not earn me a strike? I feel dirty. It's like the time I took my car for the Emissions test and they said there is a slight delay, they were having a problem with the machine, when they finally did do it, I passed with great numbers (failed the two years before). I raced out of there and renewed my plates immediately before they changed their mind and call the license office to tell them to send me back. I'm waiting for an email or announcement on the forum saying there was a mistake with the numbers and I finished 75'th lol
So, I've scraped by and avoided a strike and demotion. Now hope I can avoid one on Powderfinger or best case scenario (wishful thinking) finish top 30 and erase all strikes, not likely to happen

As nice as that would be I'm still thinking there are going to be many in the -40 to -50 range. Still though happy with my outcome to a degree, played 4 consistent rounds and hope I shook the bad play monkey I've had on my back for a while now I already saw your score for Powderfinger...you'll be fine..those strikes are as good as gone...might even earn an exemption

I figured top 70 for Denali..and I got a top 25...a few weeks ago I was hoping for a top 10 and won the damn thing...you just never know.

Right gentlemen I have heard and understood your ORDERS......lol.
Roberto, to Impose means to "take advantage of someone by demanding their attention or commitment".
