I'll take a pair of 5's but I had to work hard to achieve those scores.
That should be another missed cut, yippee for me.

One For The RoadWent out in a Ferrari, came home in a Morris Minor. Once I hit the water for the first time I couldn't stay out of it. Cracking course choice again. Carol inflames47 Ross asyoudo64 and Tim TimB are giving us some proper treats. The errors were mainly my fault but I'm not owning a very fast out of nowhere with plenty of water to my left!! Very fast's (for me) are as rare as rocking horse sh1t! I can't move my arthritic thumb THAT quick! Think it's time to walk away from the pixel golf for the day. The new me knows when to stop. I think!!

inflames47Designer ********** +4 Was doing so well until I hit the beach, then decided I wanted the full experience and went for a few dips. Always a pleasure that kicks you on the teeth.

TGC-CC Rd1 : -10 Rd2 : -5
Used a lot of mojo on the first round, too much maybe . 2nd round should have been better, with few short put missed for birdies. Overall still happy with the results, which should make the cut, eventhough I would expect low scoring considering a fairly laidback (but very enjoyable) course, reasonable to little wind and fair greens not too quick.
OFTR -2 This one was a very different beast. Great course, but a lot harder than the TGC one, a lot of water that seems to have a magnet effect on the balls, and tough wind conditions. 2 double bogeys really hurt my final score, one when I paid my due to the water (but only 1 wet ball on this course is a good performance), and the second one when I had a lag spike on a chip, and instead of stopping the shot and do it again, I went through with it with a very bad end result. I took Ben with for a little company on the round, and to gentlemanly argue which of our teams will go further on the WC (of course it will be the French, Ben ), but I am affraid our discussion distract him away from the round on the back nine (shame as the front nine was very nice)

The week started off with the Cupid Stunts going head to head with Ben's SkyBlueBen Bum sorry Rum Raiders. We took the first couple of pairing and was looking promising but for the second set of pairing we let them have the win as we were feeling generous. I then went M.I.A and we went looking for a ringer to finish me off . The third Rd of matches saw everyone share the wins with one apiece. This made the singles matches so important, but the Cupid Stunts lived up to their name by only winning one of the four matches, losing 12 - 8 . Things went better in the OFTR coming second only one point behind the Whacked in the Balls which leaves us mid table. I should be back in the game Monday or Tuesday if they me let out. horusphoenix Violinguy69 Avakrac jjbuzzotta bogeyman

The French? Have you got any players left? The back 9? The wheels fell off one by one! Tough course but a lot of fun.

inflames47 Sunday funday so I finally get to play the showcase. AND it is the course I lurve so much but it won't lurve me back. Most of the issues were sand and putting related, still enjoyed it immensely. Here is a way too early PC LB At least I have great company on +11. Onward! Art, I started off with an early birdie and some pars and I thought it would be a good round. Well it was until I got past the 5th hole and then the wheels came off. I was too embarrassed to even post the score. I’ll just say you beat me in a landslide.

Thanks to Carol inflames47 for organising that round on the course that can't be named. I have to say that it's a little above my pay grade atm but I've locked it away in the favourites to savour at a later date - maybe 5 years I'll be ready. Playing this course has made me want to have a little rant - and since I've pretty much got a captive audience here I go.......... 1. The Splash shot is officially dead. R.I.P. or otherwise I don't care. It's dead, it's fvcked. I only use a partial flop now out of the sand and that gives me around 40% of what I need. Better than the S shot , that gives me sweet FA! If they ban the flop out of the bunker they can kiss my arse goodbye! 2. Those good 'ol boys in Georgia need to visit a decent lumber yard, build a bridge and get over themselves! Who do think they are? As if having a replica course named Augusta in a golf video game is gonna knock the earth off it axis? It's making a mountain out of a molehill to the nth degree and it makes my blood boil! Sorry - rant over.

Must be the one thing that’s harder on PS 😉 2. Couldn’t agree more. Tossers.
