-71, eh? You missed perfection by 1!! Great going. I'm sure this is going to bring out more and more comments about the unrealistic aspect of the game. Just shrug and let it go. Next week is going to be very similar at Hunter Meadows. Even on the PGA tour, you have weeks where the final score is -30+ It happens, lets just have fun and congratulate those that come out and shoot a score that is 10 strokes or better than 2nd place.

My question for everyone: Are you having FUN?
If the answer is yes, CONGRATULATIONS !! You have fulfilled Tim's vision for creating this great land called TGCTours. I understand the debate, we like debate, but we like the brotherhood, camaraderie, and fellowship aspects more. This isn't a soapbox moment, just a reminder why we are all here. Haha I can take this a step further - if the answer is no - then this is no place for you...and if you answered yes - how bout you let the little things go. Course too easy? Then sign up for the Euro circuit that week or take a week off

Then sign up for the Euro circuit that week or take a week off This week the Euro was more difficult and this was one of the reasons I played on it. I knew I could shoot -15, -16 with a good round but to do it 4 times in a row doesn't happen with me, as I'm far too inconsistent. Euro is much tougher with the top score being -24 now and the cut looking to be somewhere between -7 and -12. Next week tho there are two very easy courses so maybe those who whine should take a vacation that week.

Call me a skeptic but I find it hard to believe that anyone using a legit controller is scoring a 53 twice in one tournament on that course.

I shot a 55 and a few of my 57s could easily have been as low as 53 with a few more putts made. Not the least significant is the fact that you are saying it about Sherpa. Watch a ghost ball for any one of his rounds. Nothing but legit. It's actually pretty amazing to watch given just how off-center his shots are.

I just played a warm up and shot a 60 going as fast as I could, 15 minute round. My 1st round was pretty solid. Second round was horrid...got a 74% hiccup on a par 3, missed 4 or 5 fairways, parred a par 5, was only -4 after 9...and I still shot 12 under. I've played far better golf and only shot par on some courses. This is a really odd tourney for golf, not a complaint, just an observation. Variety is cool and all but I will try to scout some courses in future before I register. It's just tough to find the time to play 4 rounds a week much less practice and then also scout courses in advance. And yes, it's fun. I would be surprised if anyone here is being forced to play so I'm pretty sure it's enjoyable for all. People shouldnt take innoculous observations as whining or being mad.

if everyone had the time this is one course that u could take notes and dial it in, landing in the same areas and birdie every hole. i remember one hole i tried to drive the green 1st round and then the remainder rounds i just laid up and flopped birdie with ease. this can be done on many holes
the wind never changes - first course i have seen the wind never break into double digits, thus making it easier to conquer the course with a plan setout. ie drive to x point, hit x iron with x loft and putt 5ft.
you need to know where the tiers on the greens are, the pins never change
given the above info - this course is very easy
this isnt a complaint - just stating the facts.
i still managed a lame 62 final round. im much more competitive on tougher courses, but its good to mix it up.
i will continue to enjoy this tour as long as there is a tourny to play. see yas in the next one

I wish I had your conditions.

That's what I'd call "understatement".
