Finally got #8 figured out with a par in round 2 and birdie in round 3...now 16 and that F*$KING tree are my nemesis Lol - is that the one on the right of the fairway, right on the driving line? First round I just went straight for it, and the ball just dipped under the branches and rolled nicely along the fairway.

Heavy rough 60% 1 ft off the fairway and 119 speed greens in round 3... what's not to love this week.

My putting is god awful right now, no idea how many putts I missed inside 10 ft. Still can't get used to the different tempo compared to TGC2. Might pick up another demotion mark after shooting -20.

-6,-8,-8,-12 = -34
This course had a few tricky holes! Swing was all over the place in the first round but managed to secure a bogey free round of 66. The following two rounds could and should have been much better. Started of fast on both rounds but picked up a few silly bogeys that chilled it off. At this place I'm probably way out of a promotion mark and needed something extra. Started of kinda slow though but had a good streak at the end (-9 last 11) and finished with a round of 60. Probably not enough for a promotion mark, but who knows?

First round I just went straight for it, and the ball just dipped under the branches and rolled nicely along the fairway. That's the one...i hit it square and it flew about 50 yards dead right into deep deep rough. 2nd round it was a glancing blow on the left that kicked right into a bunker. Finally avoided it on the last 2 rounds. Finished -38 for the tourney...hopefully a promotion is earned but not sure that's gonna be good enough

Finally avoided it on the last 2 rounds. Hit that drive perfectly the first 3 rounds, but on the fourth smacked it right in the middle of the trunk. Squirted right and finished halfway up a cliff, all i could do was hoik a 7 iron back onto the fairway. Managed to scramble par though.

Could be jumping the gun here but next weeks course seems right up my street. Just had a speed golf first look round and shot -9 with three (self inflicted and easily avoidable) bogies on the card. Couldn’t miss on the greens.
Long may it continue......

Well it looks like those hundreds of plays and in depth course knowledge paid off! I completed a major goal in winning on my own course.. but most of all I at least hope most of you enjoyed the course and it's challenges here and there. I put a lot of hours into this course but that was for my own enjoyment but to see that others enjoyed what I've created is truly amazing! Thanks everyone!

I've been practicing on next week's course, Idleswinds, and I really enjoy this course. One issue: what is with the yardage marker on the 6th hole?!? With some bad luck I can see some people hitting it on their approach shot lol, it's right in the centre of the narrow fairway pretty much right in front of where I keep leaving my tee shot!!

Opened with a really shaky 69, just sloppy all over the course. Buckled down for a 64 in round 2, and then totally missed the slow greens in round 3 and shot a 68 - at least 3 or 4 putts left short.
Came out hot in round 4 and sank 13 birdies for a 59. Where was that the first 4 rounds?

Wow. Played early this time and played pretty good! -8,-12,-14 for the first three rounds. So I know that I'm in a very good position heading in to the last one. -4 after first 9, so so, but okey due to the wind that is around this last round. Heading in to number 12 (i reckon). The short driveable par 4 with water to the left. Hit a fast downswing. Water. Had a very fast downswing on my 4th shot. Water. Finished with a QUAD (8) and thought my chances were gone..
Anyway, heading in to hole number 16. Long windy par 3. Picks up my 5-wood. Perfect shot and a perfect bounce. Hole-in-one to go to -4.
Next hole: Perfect 9-iron approach, perfect line. Boom. Eagle 2.
Last hole: Lipped out my for another eagle but made a birdie anyway.
So -5 on the last 3 holes to finish -7 and with a very respectable -41.
What a game this is!

-20 after two rounds and still not in the top 5 and that’s only Xbox players 🤬. Some really nice scoring going on.
