Noticed there is 2 old beaver creek courses on the dropdown list when i go to submit practice round  Yea, we'll have to work on that! The designers submitted it twice (2nd time w/ both designers names attached) and we have yet to remove the duplicate. Once Tim gives me a delete option I'll clean them up. Hasn't been on the top of our priority list yet. From the looks of the stats being kept, I suggest using the 2nd one on the list to record your practice rounds. |

I'm betting the winner of this tourney will be in the -48 to -52 range. I just played a no-grid tourney at Old Beaver Creek and shot a -5 for the four rounds. The leader, last I checked, was -18. No grid. Don't know about you but no-grid costs me at least 5 shots per round.
Feel like I'll need to be -10 or better each round to compete for a Top 10 spot.

Shot a -4 the first time I played it, haven't got close to that since. Not good. Too much pressure from Tim. Thanks.

First round on this course is a -11. Birdied holes 2, 3 and 6 before an eagle at 9. Then birdied holes 10, 11, 12, 14, 16 and 17 on the way in. Left at least 3 or 4 shots out there. If people can string 4 good rounds together, this will be a low scoring tourney.

its amazing to think they take away 250+ so called higher quality golfers from this field and were still looking at a ridiculously low winning score! Seems like alot of qschool failures have made for alot more practice. Cant wait to get going. This tour is gna be fun  |

This tour is gna be fun I know I've gotten better since q school too, but it appears there are a few sandbaggers on our tour. ;-) Seriously, just joking. But you KNOW that's what many will be saying when those -15 rounds start going up next week. |

Have to agree but id much prefer to be an average competitor in the pga or euro than storm the lower ranks! but spose each to their own! its the wind waiters than do my nut tho. Spending hours completing a round to get best conditions. Aint got time 4 that! Also great ace parttime. I do find that par 3 second very birdiable but have never found the ace as of yet! |

It's kinda like Seinfeld for me. I've seen every episode a 100 times and still love every minute of it. I've played this course more times than I've played any other and just can't tire of it. Kinda feels like that old home course I grew up playing as a kid. I'm getting all misty-eyed now.

I wish I had the time to wait for perfect wind conditions. I really hope HB will be implementing fixed wind conditions for each round during the tournament set up. Would eliminate that issue. |

Remember Guys...
The beautiful Old Beaver Creek is rated as "Easy" & is nowhere near as challenging as the 6 Q-School courses.
The current Global PC course record is 16 under by Sherpabd.
The guys on the PGA / Euro Tours rip this fantastic course to shreds, consistently.
I was +28 for Q-School & I just submitted an 8 under practice round.
So, yeah! Our best players will go low... but it needs to be put in perspective.

Yeah Sam, I just played the no grid tourney on old Beaver Creek and put up some good rounds. Finished -12 over 4 rounds. Feel like I can go fairly low next week.
