For this week only, I pledge to make a $1 contribution to TGCT for every API pull in PGA.
Bring on the flickers, script kiddies, pushers, pullers, magical thumbs, razors, titans, and anyone else that wants to help raise money for the tour in these trying times. Iāll donate a minimum of $10 but my guess is we will exceed that?

187 is the default i think.
There's two 187 rounds and two 163's
Gotcha. I havenāt played, but there should be three 163ās from what I entered, so not sure what happened there. The 1 round I put 187 was what I felt like were the tamest pins and could handle 187 but I wanted 163 everywhere else. They should still be legal 9 box wise outside of backstops but they definitely will be quite slick. The weather report shows default, fast, very fast

I double checked and I had fast, fast, default, fast. Default is 187.

Don't worry, the course is great, it's not your fault the designer completely forgot to work on the greens once he'd finished making the tee to green aspect. It's should've been called "The greens in the ditches". Ps it is your fault that we had to play in a hurricane in R3, so šš

I normally play two rounds in a sitting to start off the week, but I am not used to playing that well here on PGA, so I am stopping after just one round for now. Par on #1 and #18 and went -15 over the 16 holes in between.

I actually enjoyed course this week tbh, went in with trepidation and subsequently played all four back to back, started with a real nice -14, -6 R2, R3 -9 so I needed -11 in R4 for -40, all I needed was par on last hole, found fairway, found green, then three putted like a right d##khead. So, -39 š. Iāll take it.

First event after promo was one to forget. -11, -7 might sneak the cut but never felt comfortable. Couple of bogeys on the front 9 in the second round after starting eagle, birdie. Goodbye controller.

The micro-tiered greens this week mean you have to hit the perfect shot else youāre chipping or flopping from the light rough ācollarā.
Seems every par5 pin was on a side slope so even 5 footers werenāt easy.
Didnāt quite understand a few holes. Number 9 as an example.
Too many driveable par4s. Was that an attempt to balance the 673 par5 into heavy wind?
Just didnāt get it. š¤·š¼āāļø

63-61 for -20 through two. Still fighting the swing but a vast improvement on last week. Should make the cut.
Which is why i can say what i am about to say without any sour grapes whatsoever.
These are amongst the worst greens we've played this season. Especially at max speed. Which is a shame because i'm a fan of the layout.
But, can anyone explain the 9th green to me?
QFT
Tee to green - decent track Green complexes - dismal. Always love the 200+ yard approaches into a green which runs away, and then dives steeply off the back about 6ft behind the pin......hit a perfect shot, run 2ft past the hole - oh look, I've got a 15yd chip up a mountain next......
And all the multi breaking 10ft putts due to every f**ing pin being on the top of a bloody mound. And repeated yellows in the box (must be 10-12 greens over the event)....
2 and out for me - terrible tempo BS throughout to add to the above.
Ditto - but replace tempo for putting.

Has anyone heard from Brighttail lately? deathstar and I are concerned as we have not seen him since April 11. He has not been on Steam, posted here and has not read and replied to my private messages to him via Facebook (his last post there was on Feb 14th). A bit worried for our friend since he is very vocal here in the forums.

Hynonen (4) Cassanova (3) No Majors Allen (3) No Majors Plus one other, first timer, but a top competitor with multiple wind this season.
Good start for the charity Mitch.

-10 -10 -3 -13
-36
Had a good tournament except for the 3rd round. Made two mistakes and was really a bit unlucky on the greens in that round. I felt that i played better than -3 but it is what it is.
-20 should make the cut and -36 may place me around 40th (??).

I'm the first timer. I'm currently asking why but I think I'm packing it up. I kept the same settings with my mouse as I had before when I hit it too crooked for the api and worked my but off to find a straighter swing. Well, now it's too straight.
If the feedback is anything other than it was outside of the cone too much, I'll retire. I admire the guys who work on it because if I worked on it to the point of getting pulled on the other side of the spectrum without changing any settings, thats just frustrating. I could be wrong though.This is just information, not a complaint. My goal was never to play flip a coin with the api.
