I don’t know if this is happening for anyone else, but I just bogeyed the first 2 holes in my final round due to the putter going back so slow causing me to miss the putts... Not happy. Same thing is happening to me in TST, wtf is going on?! I played a few rounds a couple hours ago, and everything was fine. Loaded up TST just now, and boom slow animation for putts. Completely throwing off my timing. Haha... I just read this and loaded up my aborted PGA round... thought I’d better finish off at least... game started, went to tap my rage quit tiddler in, missed a 1ft putt for bogey so immediately dropped another.

I had a 7 foot straight in putt hole 1 in TST, I’m like, cool...good way to start. Hit it a couple feet lol. If this is how it’s gonna be now...I feel like I’m back at day 1! Thank god I finished my first 2 Rds of this or id for sure be cut. Seems silly that they think the red fast game is perfectly fine, but now want to force everyone to use a really slow backswing on putts? Ugh.

Yeah, the putting animation completely killed my final round, and the end of my third round. Hopefully that gets reverted soon.

First tournament done and I did much better than I thought I would do. Couldn't keep the near perfect play going, but did just enough to get a top 10 or so, I hope...it went like this...
-10 -12 -5 -7 Total= -34
On to next week... Good luck all.

I thought I was losing my mind.. I also seem to get some bad pulls on putts that I wasnt getting yesterday. Still not getting them with any other shot. I mean we spent all this time adjusting to the new stroke just to have to do it again. Yayyy

Just want to say that I'm on the front page of the leaderboard. Bottom feeder that I am, just wanted to make sure you all saw me before I fall!
Also wanted to note I shot a 62 with 35% fairways hit and 5 bunkers. I'm a scrambler!

Need to ban the red fast now with those fairway numbers and that scoring! I was 90% fairways for the week. Goes to show that putting and short game still pay the bills. 🤷🏼♂️

Alright, much better in round 2. My goal was to get back to even through two rounds to hopefully avoid a demotion mark. Just rolled by the cup on 18 for what would have been a -7, I'm okay with the -6 though that gets me back to -1 overall. I'm not making the cut obviously, but have a pretty solid chance at avoiding any demotion marks this week. Tempo was MUCH improved over yesterday, as was putting distance control. Only made one bogey and burned edges on another 3 or so birdie putts besides 18, so it could have been a -10 pretty easily. I'll play the last two rounds for the cow hunt, but other than that, it's back to my design work for the Rookie Design Contest.

Final round 59 to set a target of -46.
Lip-outs on 2 and 3 and burnt edges on 10 and 17 will probably be the difference knowing the quality of those yet to finish/tee-off.

I don't think I've ever seen this (look at the R2 card) in all my years here at tgctours.

The putter patch is some BS for those who were in the middle of their rounds. I played all mine with the same putter mechanics but this first week may need to be scrapped to be fair to those who had to use two different putting mechanics across four rounds. Or those who had to come in cold to a different putting mechanic. Not cool by HB

Not cool by HB I don't think they would "scrap" the week here, but they could simply not run any demotions marks for those that got caught by this. Promotion marks... I could see turning them off or keeping them.

Was my worst ball striking week since game came out. Hit it great all week and tgc tempo was off. If i went for a fast i hit perfect if i went for perfect id hit fast. No consitency whatsoever that coupled with the shocking hb course lighting package so lines were barely visable and id wrote it off after the first 9 holes. Felt like i read them good as i could and didnt really threaten anything. Hb courses play pants. I had 4 putts on 187 greens stop dead 3 inches short and id putt extra distance on and all my putts are pretty much white percentage 90% of the time.
But hey ho onto next week. I actually didnt beat myself up tho and just laughed my way round. I was dogging it tee to green and as in rl you just have to chalk down some rounds as one of them days.
Some really good scores in so hats off to you if u had a good week.im challenging in societies so i im not a million miles off but ill keep practicing and go again.
Good luck all!
