It's Designed by Dirtbags Gawlfin' with Art Vandelay going live now I want to thank those that patronized the stream today, including both the voice of and the ghost of SkyBlueBen and the voice of and pixel golfer of @bovakian . Dave stuck around for the second round, which is where I had some sound issues (I apologize folks, Streaming can be tricky) that I hope were a one off. The course was very enjoyable, tip o' the cap to you sandsaver01 . I have never played to course IRL but have been to the Oregon coast many times and feel you nailed summer there. Because we all know that Oregon invented rainy days! Only hole I had issues with was 12. Does the green fall off that much? If it does, then you nailed it. Just seems that the right side of the green is jail, no way to keep the ball there and it is gone to the rough way down towards the ocean. Oh, and my score: Look at that smug fella on the top of the board.....good on ya Ben

I don't know for sure Art Vandelay about #12 green, I had to depend on the Lidar data and on a couple of the greens near the ocean (#15 & 16) I definitely had to modify the slopes at the back. I did not on # 12 though. Take a look at this video Bandon Dunes from 16:53 on and you will know what I know.

Finished my rounds off today in DbD first round -7 pro clubs and decided the course played too long with them so took the master clubs out for a spin on my Xbox. Second round -9 with two poor flops costing me three shots, the tempo gods behaved themselves on Xbox tonight a couple of fast swings and the odd slow but generally good. The master clubs really are a joy to play when tempo behaves will it be enough to beat the first round leader Celtic Wolf.

There are some tricky pins on the back 9 in the second round, very easy to drop strokes. I had a few downhill prayers where you almost know before you hit the putt that it's a two shot swing if it doesn't hit the hole.

Well the Oregon coast has treated me OK for round one at least. Four birds and an eagle (on #4, not one of the par fives) had me at -6 at the turn, looking to catch the Evil-man 😇, but that was not to be. Birdies hard to come by on the back nine - I am experimenting changes in putting and blew two putts right through the hole on par fives. ONWARD to round two.

I just finished my two rounds. Overall, I liked the course, but did not care for a hole or two. It seemed like with master clubs I had an abundance of 30-80 yard shots. I know, hit a 2w off the tee. I think it was the 15th hole that had an unlevel tee box. Overall, fun course. Good job sandsaver01. -13.

I won't complain, but this 15th green second round pin position killed my score :
-7 / -3
6 under on that 15th tee, doh !
