I'm back to TGCT after a 3 year hiatus. Looking forward to "competing" again, though I may in fact be not very much competition for any of you at all.

Was playing online matches all day swing tempo was perfect. Start playing the tournament course for this week. Can’t hit a perfect shot to save my life. Seems odd to me. Any one else?

Greetings fellow CC-Fr's. I am continuing my free fall through the ranks and this is my first week in CC-F. Hopefully, I will stop the fall and get my game back on track. Looking at scores, there is not of difference between the flights, so we will see. LOL
Anyways, good to be here!

R1 65 R2 60 R3 61 R4 64 -38 total with 5 bogeys, 3 of those coming in the last round with the very fast greens. I think something in the low to mid 40's should be good enough to win. Good luck everybody, hit em good.

Just finished the first round - tough greens on this course. Somewhat deceiving, as they don't look that bad, but the continuous slope from one end to the other makes it tough, especially with firm greens and fast green speed. Appears like I should be prepared for more of the same in round 2. LOL I had a couple of shots that I thought were good - ball slowly rolls towards the pin, and then continues to roll and roll and roll until I am looking at a 30+ foot putt. Oh well, I am not alone. All 800 or so of us are playing the same course.

I'll 2nd that. Some of the toughest greens I've played in this game (other than some of the crazy user created courses).

For whatever reason, these greens were clicking for me. I was going to play Skagit Society after a warmup round of Desert Sands but I was rolling in too many to not take advantage of it. Jumped right into TGCT and posted a -30. Went -7/-4/-7/ and closed it out with a -12!.
Inevitably I'll end up with a demotion mark. Too many good players!

Finished the first two rounds at -2, and played the last two in -19, for a total of -21. Guessing I will be on the cusp of a demotion mark. dunwin, I don't think you have anything to worry about at -30. You should be okay.

Happy to be back in F after getting the win last week! Posted -39 at Jasmine which I'm happy about. Left so many putts out there though on slow greens. Thought the course was awesome though super tough with the wind blowing in two of the rounds!

wildy33 Nice job last week. The first two rounds last week were brutal for me. I had a good first round on this weeks course (-8) but struggled mightily on Round 2. Combination of pin location and poor putting (though that is the norm for me) spelled trouble.

Combination of pin location and poor putting (though that is the norm for me) spelled trouble. Oh man, first round pins were straight forward but i would've liked a bit of variety in round 2 rather than all at the back! Big fan of pin placements changing the strategy of the hole rather just a putting challenge. I found the par 3's (except 17) did a great job of challenging your imagination in one round, then adding difficulty to getting the ball near the flag on the next.

Two promotion marks last week just to be done in by these slow greens this week I think. Soooo many scoring chances left out there. Finished at -19 under only after a -9 Round 1

Finished this week at -18. Lots of missed putts!!! aarghhh! Oh well, based on my standings after Round 3, I "should" be safe from a demotion mark this week. LOL

Wow this week was a weird one. I tore up the front 9 in rounds 1, 2, and 4. But the back 9 was just stale, couldn't score until about holes 16-18. All my putts would just burn the edges consistently, frustrating week but overall great outing.
