The lip-outs continued in the last round but still managed to hit my best score of the tournament to leave me at -7 total
If I never see this course again it will still be too soon

I believe I listed my total incorrectly above.
-4 -3 -4 -7
-18
Sorry guys, I am easily confused and distracted.

Thought I’d played more on PC. I’m level 5 lol. At least I know the course a bit I guess. I love this track. Never played it particularly well but I love it. It’s unique among RL courses. I just wish less people would try to design similar courses for this game, and less schedulers used those courses.
Going in no practice, this could be messy 🤷🏽♂️

Tempo on PC is WAAAAY different to XBox. Fasts actually felt fast. Can even attempt partial swings...
The guys using XBox on the PGA tour are without doubt the best players in the game - it’s not even close to being as hard on PC, and I’ve played exactly one round in the last 8 months on PC.
Hold your head high XB folk, were playing a game that’s about 33% harder than it is on PC, which is about 33% harder than it is on PS.
PS must be like using beginner clubs, PC is like using Pro clubs on XB as far as tempo goes
Anyways, +3 I think. Didn’t realise that changing the putter head had such an impact on my putting, I left SO many short early in the round before I adjusted. Only one stupid 3 putt, only one stupid leave-it-in-the-bunker shot..

I changed my putter head too and the distance is fine, they are just offline now.

I think my problem was I normally use the big winged one and use the back of the putter to judge how far I’ve swung. On the standard one it’s really thin so it felt like I was pulling it back too far, causing the short putts. I had the completely standard clubset because my stepson never reinstalled the game when he got a new hard drive. The only changes I made before playing were making myself bald and a greying ranga. I’ll make myself fatter and taller next round lol.

Round 3 much better. Pair of +1 nines, 3 chirpies and 5 Humphreys. +2 round, +17 through 54 holes.
Onward.
Round 4 even better! 5 chirpies and 4 Humphreys. -1; THAT'S RIGHT, VANDELAY UNDER PAR ON THE COURSE THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED WHILE PLAYING USE STYLE!
Finish +16, bloodied but smiling like a rugby player.
Onward!

-9 overall (-3,E,-2,-4)
Actually couldn't be more pleased with that. I seem to always have a round in the 80's on this course and really don't care for the greens on this course. But I figured I'd play round 1 and if I didn't blow up If give it a go.
Well, round 1 I bogeyed 3 of the first 5 holes and figured oh here we go, but I got hot after that with 6 birds and ended up -3 and was pretty happy with that.
Round 2 was back and forth trading 4 birdies with 4 bogeys. Not too disappointed with the E.
Round 3 was a great round considering the winds at -2. I can't complain.
Round 4 was pretty solid. Holed out from long range for eagle on the par 4 7th and made the turn at -5 for the round, but then ran into trouble with a horrible drive on 10 and made my first and only double of the tournament. Eventually got a couple birdies late but gave back a shot on 18 to finish the round at -4. Still overall pleased with the result.

Onward! I’m +11 or 12 thru 3, I might have to load up your ghost for round 4 Mr.Vandelay. I’ll try to work out how to upload a vid of it. Have you been focusing on imports or exports at Vandelay Industries lately??

Only one stupid 3 putt, only one stupid leave-it-in-the-bunker shot.. Sounds like the PC is the sweet spot for the swing and the consoles should have been based on it. While my tempo management is good I do struggle with the swing line and slightly off centre shots can mean long putts and missed greens. I think there is a good challenge with the swing on PC, though I'd would rather the driver be a bit tougher to hit. Regarding the best players on the game being Xbox on PGA Tour. Nah 😅 they play with all the aids on, the game practically does everything for you to make it easier. I'd call that easy difficulty setting myself!!

I really like the tempo difficulty on the XBox. It makes it so rewarding when you find a sweet spot and string a heap of perfect perfects together. I just wish we all had it the same, which is why I’ve made the BCT my home for tour play.
