I thought the Cow rounds and the platinum rounds are one and the same... Yes, you are correct. Moreover, he is not a registered participant. Sincerely, The Secretariat of the Golden Cow

Good afternoon, I played my four rounds yesterday. Well, I *played* only the first two rounds. Rounds 3 and 4 were a grind. The combination of bumpy fairways and high winds proved to be a little too difficult for my abilities. I under- and overestimated almost every approach, so I definitely need to practice more in really high winds. And then, when my calculations were good, I threw in a fast downswing. I think it is my third -12 in a row. Maybe others found the course to be a little more challenging as well, so that I'd make the cut by one stroke instead of missing it by one stroke. On the other hand, it might be better if rounds 3 and 4 stayed in the Cow Hunt and not be revealed on the official site for the large public, lol. See you next week and good luck! Did you see all the cows grazing in the pastures? A tear came to my eye...What a nice little nod, a bit of an homage if you will, to our fellow cow hunters. It’s the little things like that that keep me on the hunt for the Golden Cow. Oh, it would’ve been nice to have an actual golden cow hidden in one of those pastures as an Easter Egg. Maybe next time.

Started off -9, -12, was -4 thru 5 in round 3 which was -25 with 31 holes left to play but then did my usual sulk over one backwards breaking putt and fell out with the game. Hit a beautiful driver off the green DQ. Were now in the 4th TGC game and I've still not grown up. Maybe next week.

Humph... Unexpected man overboard, unless my eyes deceive me. A couple of interesting new names up on Plat this week. Sounds like they've met their Judgment Day.

-18 at the cut with 8 good opportunities gone begging. I’m blaming the cows.

Where you been? Socially distancing like an obedient little Victorian. The greenskeeper placing the pins on Ivanhoe may have spent too long partying at my place.

Man, just call me Mr. Wednesday. Shot -32 across 4 practice rounds. Shot -16 across 4 real rounds. I burned so many cup edges that I may well be under investigation for attempted arson in Cornwall. I'm sure I missed another cut at -8, but hope to once again avoid any demotion marks.

Finished -32 (-7/-7).
Played really well R4 but had some crazy sh%$ happen, wish I recorded it.
Doubled 5 - hit it a few yards over the back. Chip somehow checked above the hole, not releasing down despite it running all downhill from there. Putt then went left even though the beads were moving slightly right, and proceeded to roll off the green.
Bogeyed 18 after hitting it to 6’. Fast moving left turner according to the beads? Yeah nah, doesn’t turn. Putt coming back will surely take the break, it’s on a yellow slope. Yeah nah. Tap in turns heaps and I nearly missed that!
-7 R4 with 4 dropped shots, and really should’ve been 5 better. Just a little upset.

The greenskeeper placing the pins on Ivanhoe may have spent too long partying at my place. I loved the layout of Ivanhoe. Would be fun to play in real life.
