Well, extreme squirting destroyed my chances. First round 74! In 2 mph wind. Did better in round 2 with a nice 61, before getting some troubles again in round 3, with a couple of 98% shots, so only 67 there. But, my last round was really nice, made some nice puts and got the ball in play, so a 59 there should at least get me away from the bottom of the leaderboard. :/ Good luck to all of you! What time and day for the 74 round did you play using EST?
What time and day for the last round did you play using EST?
Lol trying to figure out the wind patterns?

I give up with this game!!!! Everytime in a tourney things never go my way. I can be shooting lights out in practice and have no problems what so ever but as soon as i start a tourney the game decides to go against me and i get TONS OF BALL SQUIRTING, putts always missing, driving into the rough by an inch and under 100% shots. Starting to get really pissed off and don't know why i ever play tourneys. R1: 61 (-11) R2: 63 (-9) R3: 66 (-6) R4: 66 (-6) Total: -32 I gave up after round 1, not because of the score but because of what happened like what i mentioned above. I thought it was just me right now. Ball squirting is horrible for me in this tournament so far, to the effect of almost every shot. Never hit the ball straight unless a chip or putt. This plus bad putting plus trying to play into 14-15mph winds (round1) made for some ugly scores. Worst part is I holed out a few chips, wanted to save those for rounds where I'm actually in the top20.

Thank god that's over with. I played badly, got some very iffy contacts where the ball just seemed to go where it wanted to, not where I hit it to! The dreaded ball squirts that everyone is talking about are very real and happens on this course more than any other that I have seen before, it caused me to find the lake on 4 in the third round.
That wasn't the reason that I underperformed so badly though. I couldn't dial in my distances all four rounds and my putting was just awful, I must have missed at least ten putts inside of ten feet and only holed 2 putts of 20 feet.
Rounds 1,3 and 4 were in very strong winds too, which didn't help. I haven't hit so many 5 woods in to par 4's as I did this week. The wind laid down in round 2 and I managed a respectable 59.
I shot 63,59,64,63 for a very underwhelming -39. I played the front nine in -13 for the week!! just awful, I managed to get a triple bogie on 6 from the middle of the fairway! It took me 5 shots to get up and down from the bunker! The cheque probably won't cover the air fare and accommodation.
I can't believe that there are two other tours that I belong to that are using this course, this week too. I am just going to play in cruise control with the tunes turned up to take my mind off the nastiness that happens around here.

I don't think those blimps and aerials are helping. I know they contribute to lag (or had in the past). I cringe anytime I see anything above my head moving in the game.
Not sure when I'll hit the course back up to finish...but not anxious to get back out there (unlike real golf where I can't wait to play again).

You might want to join the euro tour mrsourninja as your allowed to have a laugh over there. I was trying to establish if time of day had anything to do with ball squirts due to high network traffic, I got the info somewhere else. And I have long since finished my rounds as posted in this thread already, there was no reason to keep it secret or insinuate ill will on my part.

If people actually realized how much effort Steve and I put into this 'ball squirt' issue over the last 2 months, they wouldn't be so quick to criticize, be it joking or not. We were sounding the horn back when people were calling us crazy or alarmists, saying that it wasn't an issue with them. Welcome to the party folks.

I am just going to play in cruise control with the tunes turned up to take my mind off the nastiness that happens around here. Totally agree with you.. The ball squirting on this course is more than I have ever experienced on any other course.. This is in no way a reflection on Colin, who designed this course... He's done a great job with it and has no control over the ball squirt issue.. Taste's theory on memory leaking possibly due to too many courses being uploaded and Steve's online/offline theory are very interesting.. (I'm just being vague here guys, please feel free to correct me) I think Taste, Steve, Brighttail are on to something. I played a round offline, and agree with Steve.. No ball squirting... Online... it just doesn't let up and seems to be getting worse each day..

You 2 need to step getting upset about everything other people said. Mrsourninja said one short line with nothing malicious in it. Nobody put you down, nobodys calling you names for your opinions. Actually you will discover that most people probably agree with most of what your saying including myself. Its supposed to be a decent atmosphere in here and have a f*#&ing laugh.

The ball squirts. 90% shots. I just played terrible this week. The front 9 kick my ass. 64,66,61,62 35 under.
The only thing good about this week was playing a course with 4 pin locations. Wished every tournament had 4 pin locations.

Yet another dissapointing tourney result for me personally.. 62,63,66,65....-32 total... Average scoring at best.. My ball striking is so inconsistent right now, in fact it can be good bad n VERY ugly...all i'm missing rite now is Clint Eastwood being my caddy n the famous theme to the great film everytime I hit a disastrous swing the very best players on tgctours are those who can play consistently well throughout 4 rounds on a regular basis, I can only admire that kind of consistency n somehow try n get more consistent myself... my putting is usually steady without being great,It's my ball striking I gotta improve in the weeks to come n I fully intend on trying to achieve this.. I just lost count how many basic errors I made that cost me birdies,just can't afford to do this against such a strong field or any field for that matter..almost aced par 3 9th in 1st round, hit the pin n fell to 3 inches!!...luck of the Irish?really??? winds throughout opening 3 rounds of tourney were moderate 3-7 mph,4th round ranged between 7-12mph...enjoyed the 4 pin set up again!!adds a whole lot more intrigue to a tourney I feel.. Good luck to those of u who have yet to play or complete your tourney n very well done to those of u who have posted low rounds n tallys thus far!!

Oh my god I played so bad this week. Ball squirts, 92% shots, missed SOOOO MANY putts inside 10 feet. Just demoralizing. I think I might delete it from my ps4 hard drive and go back to PGA Tour Golf 96 on the Genesis. I shot 51, 53, 55, and a WOEFUL 58 the last round. Can't believe I only shot 71 under. I HATE THIS GAME.
