I thought about giving up during the first rd, but carried on. +16 . Like a fool I'll probably still play rds 2 & 3. It can't get any worse, can it? The third round has 180+ speed greens and you know how much the ball rolls on 150โs Gave you all a challenge let's see who will be cream of the crop after 3 rounds. I did set soft or very soft on the 180 .. I blame the course choice on a certain friend who loves to pick the hardest real courses out there lol ( no name mention but he is sporting a Danish flag somewhere...

inflames47That R3 pin on 14, woof. My 8th shot finally didn't come back into the bunker, but it went off the other side of the green. My 9th shot nearly trickled into the hole... but then rolled back into the original bunker. Had that been on the front nine, I would have just said "I'm good" and turned it off. Went from bunker to bunker then back to the original bunker on 17(?) Good times! My rounds at Painhurst: +5, +6, +19 I gave up after the second round I hate greens that are like upturned saucers Blame Donald Ross ๐

Started playing Pinehurst in Designer. I say started as I've now stopped halfway through front 9. Mental course that but may return when I can get my CC rounds finished. This is the reason Pinehurst No. 2 is so difficult: It has served as the site of more single golf championships than any course in America and hosted back-to-back U.S. Open and U.S. Womenโs Open Championships for the first time in 2014. As the first U.S. Open Anchor Site, the championship will return to Pinehurst in 2024, 2029, 2035, 2041 and 2047. So guys enjoy the ride on a famous but very tough course ๐.

As you know I sometimes like to put little Easter eggs on my courses, I have no fancy for doing a winter course or conversion of one of mine so Iโve hidden one of the assets in a course coming soon. ๐๐

Art VandelayNever had a chance. Sorry Casuals, I dragged you from possible victory on every level. Recap Round 4 card Really thought I was on to something, now I have no idea. Hang in there Art. Remember what the great actor Ralph Macchio said to C.Thomas Howell in the 1983 classic "The Outsiders"....

R3 -4 R4 -7 Total -35
bogeyman I enjoyed our Match Pete. Your 2 back nine eagles were weighing heavily on my mind going into the round and they nearly did me but my front 9 saved me in the end. I think I was 7 up after 9 holes but you then won the next 5 holes 10-14 reducing me to 2 up before I crawled over the line from there. Well played Sir.

Art Vandelay Pub Crawl R4 Got a bit rattled in this round and that back 9 was a struggle. The par 5s kept scoring going, but everything else was a challenge for me. Had a tricky yardage deciding between flop or chip on 17 and managed one of my few real good shots of the round. Never liked par 3s opening or closing a round, blargh. I'll be finding sand in my shoes for months after this round. Luckily I bought just about every pair in the pro shop!

Can someone provide a link to where you can vent at HB. I have quite a long narrative I wish to post. Will share it here at a later date to get your response. Cheers Ross.

Getting it on Twitter is probably your best bet. But I suspect they also read this forum. There is also a 2K23 discord but I'm not sure if you can post in there. There is also an HB Studios forum but I think it is quite onerous to become a member so you can post there.

I looked when they removed chipping from bunkers without saying a word and the only thing I found was a forum where there was a thread posting the 6 line "update notes" and no replies allowed. Don't have to worry about consumers complaining if they have no place to do it.

This weeks mixed bag Art Vandelay Propping up the bar rounds R3 / -2 R4 / -8 ... and bogey free, don't say that very often at all Round 4 Scorecard ... She's pointing to the bar, just off the green saying, my usual barman OFTR Well, this started off swimmingly, literally with 3 drives in the water, starting off being -5 points through 3 holes, then something clicked ... ... I went -11 for the rest of the round, getting 27 points, with 4 eagles (should have been 5), I just missed driving the 18th green by about 3ft as I got greedy as was striking the ball beautifully and went straight at it over the water. 22 points is my best return this season by a long shot .. if not ever during my time here in TBC
