After THIS numbers (triple -10) I dared to play a -5 round... Well, that was enough for not getting a green mark, as I landed at position 21... 100% driving, 90%ish GIR...not enough! I am starting to slowly agree with opinions saying that the promotion/demotion system, at this otherwise incredible idea of a championship system, is extremely demotivating. At a certain point, it seems much easier to wait for the promotion events and get fast-tracked upwards. Managing 4 greenies under these conditions seems near impossible

Lol...This weeks tournament at The Wolf at Copper Lake is a really nice course. I’ve only been in 4 tourneys, but this was my favourite course. Not because of my score, but it’s a good challenge IMO. Talk about consistency, shot 66-66-66-66 for -20 overall.

The Wolf at Copper Lake is taking the fun out of playing golf. Having lots of trouble with the greens as they have been very difficult. I think the course is not a course for the CC-E thru H. Yes some golfers have no trouble with it, but the rest of us are having fits with it. Also the split fairways are a problem with judging distances. I am not complaining as it is a challenge which in the long run is good.

I did try to make it difficult, at least moreso than my previous courses.

There are indeed too many split fairways and trees placed quite clever... But I find it a fair course that just needs to be played with more pause and not just smashing the ball as far as you can with each shot. Good work, mate! PS: And yes, I might be biased by the fact of being placed 2nd after two rounds, but last week I learned not to celebrate too early...

Hi all. Fairly new to TGC Tours. Really enjoying it. Wish I'd known about it for the past few years.
For the upcoming tournaments, is there a way to check and see what tees we'll be playing from? I like to play a few rounds before I play in the society. Practiced this week from the blacks and we're playing from the blues. Not a big deal, but if that information is available, it'd be cool to know.
Thanks, AM

CC WORLD CUP I would like to ask if any CC-E players would be interested in taking part in the CC World Cup in Week 25? The competition would require you to take part in the Promotion Event in Week 25. I'll be taking registration for it on Week 23 and if there are more than 4 players interested we will use Week 24's tournament as a qualifier. Please see the link below for details. CC WORLD CUP

Thanks but make sure to post in the CC World Cup thread in Week 23, as your flight may change by then.

Managed to be placed on position 21st for the second week on a row , which doesn't give me a greenie... Is there at least a badge or something one can show with pride? Something like "You almost did it, you stupid, but decided to miss that 5-feet putt! Attaboy!"
