Anyone know if "dropping" a PS4 controller affects your swing on TGC? Asking for a friend, thanks. would ur friend be t2theb2? although im not sure its called dropping it when u stick it between ur legs and tombstone it after u miss a putt
joking aside I don't think dropping it affects ur swing, im sure every1 in this thread has had there pad flying across the room a few times

So after a bad couple of weeks, and my almost rage quit last week, this week went a bit better. Hit a -10 my first round with two bogeys, made some long putts and was very happy with that score. Struggled on my second round, a few lipped putts and miscalculations leaving me -5. Then my third, two bogeys again but a -9, and finally in the fourth I managed my first bogey free round. Was -10 going into the 18th and left myself a breaking 43 foot putt. Lined it up, smashed it, right in the hole for -11! -35 total, very happy with that as was aiming for -7 each round. Hopefully that's a top 20 I've made some adjustments to my putting, learning to trust my line rather than spending ages moving it slightly left or right and it seems to be working! Good luck to all those left to play! Good shooting my friend beat me by 3 shots though to be fair this is my euro debut(ish) and I had the added pressure of playing for my card Well done guys you's hammered me this week. Guess I will have to clean your clubs this week. I figured out what my problem is. Flopping from 15yards trying to half swing and making a bollox of it then missing the putt I done this about 6 times this tour and made bogey. I have been doing it for ages. Gonna start taking a bit more care instead of getting greedy trying to get as close to the green as possible on par 5's and stuff. It is definitely wiser to try leave 30yards,45 etc I play the game too fast time to slow down or I'll be crap forever

Once you have your PGA / Euro card, what's the process for petitioning over to the other side? I just emailed Commish asking to switch over permanently and they responded very quick, changed my card to Euro and automatically registered me for week 17.It was a guy called Jeff that did it for me fair play to him. You should do it to pal :-) Nants! Can't believe you've defected to the "other" side!! You were doing really well - few more weeks and you'd have been regularly beating me ( not hard!) I'll miss ya bud. :-(

I'll be joining you guys this week. I switched over from Pga permanently so this will be my new home. Just had one practice round and shot -7 so plenty of work to do before I play the actual tourney. You all seem like a great bunch of lads up here and have the laugh too. Especially tonyreddevil :-) another mad Irishman who has me in stitches laughing with some of his comments.I should fit in just fine I'm one of the wild lads from web.expect plenty of talk about watchers etc haha best of luck everyone :-) Once you have your PGA / Euro card, what's the process for petitioning over to the other side? Jimmy!!! Stand down man, for the love of god ( feel free to substitute another word here!)

We are friends on ps4 so I'm always up for a game, my brother and Moe are planning on going to Euro if they get an exemption so I made the switch, hope you cross over once in a while

Whisper it quietly BUTTTTT I have a great idea lads!! PGA n EURO players please take NOTE!! gonna try n have a word with the officials in this tourney about the possibility of "accidentally" seeing a few dinosaurs let loose round about the time Sweeney tees off!! book your tickets here guyz.. Pre historic Dinosaur v Jaws!! Mouth watering prospect! Pardon the pun Jaws! Errrr... Lack of water round the track may just give the Dinosaur the edge.. Early odds @ bookmakers I hear are Jaws 3/1 Dinosaur 1/3 u should of stuck ur money on the dinosaur this week
funny thing is I didn't expect to lose by it boring me to death couldn't get anything going this week wasn't a fan of the course some strange hole set ups on it like 11 and 12 it just didn't suit me and only playing 1 pin for four rounds was frustrating by the middle of the 3rd round I was looking for the dinosaur tony sent to put me out my misery
gd luck to all yet to start or finish especially the newcomers to the euro
Played euro for "fun" and to see what the 'Sweeney' magic was all about. You made putts from all over the green so if this week was an off week then humanity is basically screwed! Shame this course didn't get multi pin and with low winds it felt like Drive-Approach-Putt (and hope) for 18 holes ( x4 rounds!). The firm greens were the only thing that made it interesting.
