60-66-64-65 for a cool -33 That's currently 3rd on PC. Probably top 20-25 range overall by week's end. Just need to put 72 holes together. Spun my wheels a bit at E through 10 in round 2. I struggle to get comfy on 187s and had a number of misreads early. Course was great and enjoyable. Number of tweener holes that make you think whether to go for it or lay back. Great work Heisenberg. Good luck to those yet to tee off or still on the course.

Two MCs in a row for me. -3 both rounds, -6 total, that's bad golfin. Kid was getting sick as I was playing my rounds and that wasn't helping my concentration, but TBH I screwed up R1 pretty bad regardless. That's what I get for playing tired.
See you next week space cowboys.

Rollercoaster first two round for me this week. Went low in the first round with a -12 that included a stretch of 6 birdies in a row and an -8 back 9.
Second round got off to an okay start, but got stuck in the trees on the par 5 third and the round went off the rails. Saved a decent round with a -4 back 9.
-15 at the cut and middle of the pack for 2nd straight week.

In competition for D.A.L. this week. So that should make those of you who cursed the conditions happy to see one of the schedulers suffer. Double demos and we are on to Avery Fields!

Round three is very interesting with the high winds, yet in practice I scored better in those winds than in the other rounds.

Blah, another missed cut. Changed over to a XB1 controller and the game ran a lot smoother since I could (validly) force my game to 60 fps without having fair play issues. Calibrated the controller last night and was hitting it pretty well, but seemed to be quite a bit off when I actually did my first two rounds. Think I hit maybe 5 shots gray/perfect thru 36, and the rest were random reds with a dreaded two-way miss. Actually *really* hurt on the short game flops/splashes; turned easy birdies and pars into bogeys. Calibrated between R2 and R3 (already missed the cut with a bad -11 total, which given that I had a round of not really paying attention right before it at -9 speed golf style with moderate winds says a lot, lol) and at least finally hit tempos. Guess the lesson is to recalibrate every time I open the game, or at least I need to get more used to the XB1 controller over ds4. I'll start making cuts and being competitive again eventually; at least I hope so since I've already notched as many MCs as I did when I was on the PGA in 2016!

Hadn’t played much so rushed in to get it done. Very rusty in R1 -5, -9,-6,-12 for -32 . Putting let me down for the most part. Tempo was pretty good. Nice course!

i am still convinced there are some HB server issues that vary game play consistency throughout the day.* I practiced across 5 hours yesterday afternoon from like 4p to 9p. At 4p the game played great, smooth- lots of perfects- my weight on putts was on point (-12, -9, -8 at KP). by 730p the game was an absolute mess. red fasts, blowing 15' putts 15' past the hole, had no idea where my approaches were going (-4,-3, -3 at KP)**
* Maybe this is the worst kept secret in the game- and I haven't been part of those conversations? **No alcohol was involved.
Note to self that waiting until the last minute is an additional handicap.

A nice but unspectacular bogey-free -9 first round. Then 3 bogeys, a double and a triple, for a level par second round and a comfortably missed cut. If anyone needs me, I'll be getting paralytically drunk and punching furniture.

I spent last season mid-table in the KF tour where i enjoyed the courses, the conditions and the banter, it looks like i'm going to be mid-table Elite this season, this isn't an issue as the courses have been good, the conditions fair and folk are getting involved with the forum thread.
I play for perfect swing timing on approaches and slight fasts on drives (so that i avoid slows), i DO NOT have a problem with people playing for Very Fast as its a mechanic in the game and it's their choice because its in the rules. But I would be interested in a quick show of hands to see if this Tour is mainly made up of Very Fast swingers (ala the top of Platinum) or Perfect swingers ? I only ask because i was looking on twitch yesterday to see how people were attacking pins at the front of greens and noticed a few Elite competitors swinging Very Fast.
