up mup kupen nup I looked at the discord channel and it seems that I have been thrown out of HTF. It would have been nice to have a reason and a little notice. Apologies, just saw your message now. I still see you in there. So it looks like you're still a member of the group. Try posting something and get in touch with me if that doesn't work.

Greetings from Team D - some of the finest exponents of PGA 2K21 that TGC has to offer… and their captain 😀
So, what to call such an august band? Well, let me start with a confession. I am of a certain age and era. My virtual golfing experiences didn’t begin with 2k or EA and Tiger or Links. It didn’t even begin with Leaderboard or World Class Leaderboard. (For the uninitiated the difference between the two was the inclusion of bunkers and trees on the World Class version. Now there’s a marketing team that didn’t let the facts stand in the way of a good story!) It didn’t even start with Nick Faldo Plays The Open on C64 or the imaginatively titled Golf on the Spectrum 48k. (It was as bad as it sounds.) No my introduction to home golf started way earlier than that…
Imagine the scene. Christmas morning. A young boy peers slowly round the frame of the living room doorway. In the far corner of the dimly lit room he spies a pile of colourfully wrapped boxes of various sizes and shapes. “He’s been,” he exclaims excitedly to his watching parents. Hands trembling with anticipation he opens the various secondary treasures: a jumper, a jigsaw, a selection box but all the while, saving IT till last. The 4ft long oblong box placed just far enough away form the rest of the gifts to denote its status as “the big present”.
Eventually it’s time. He peels away a corner of the wrapping on the only remaining unopened box. He sees the hint of a pastel blue sweater and a shock of blond hair. It’s enough. He’s recognises it immediately from page 762 of the Freemans catalogue. A page he’s bookmarked for his parents with a casually turned down corner. And a not so casual “This is good” scrawled in blue felt tip next to an image of… Arnold Palmer’s Pro Shot Golf!
For anyone not aware of this gem of a game, here’s what it entailed. Within the box was a plastic golf “club”. However, at the bottom of the club instead of a lovely forged 7 iron head, there was a plastic model of the man himself. Pulling a ring in the club’s grip would cause Arnie to swing. Interchangeable clubs such as driver, wedge, putter could be swapped into Arnold’s hands depending on the shot required. You got a green. You got bunkers. You got a lake. Well, you got a bit of card with a drawing of a lake (and a frog!) that you slipped beneath a carefully crafted hole in the green to create a water hazard. You got polystyrene balls to make drives and approach shots fly through the air. You got white, pearlescent marbles for putting. It was simply THE BEST GAME EVER.
I had years of fun with this; creating courses all through the house. Particular favourites were the dogleg par 5 where only the foolish or inexperienced would try to cut the corner by taking on the bulbous mustard arm of the leather settee and the momentous par three where players launched their ball into orbit from the top of the stairs to a green some 15ft below. It felt like the ball was in the air for hours. Anyone wanting to see this incredible game in action (and frankly, who wouldn’t) can click here
Anyway. Enough of this sepia-tinted reverie. In honour of my humble indoor golfing beginnings AND the change in settings that will make this season of HTF hugely interesting,Team D shall henceforth be known as “The Pro Shot Golfers”.
NB In case anyone was wondering, I write this sort of nonsense for a living…

Special weekly preseason report! Teams have been formed, names are given. We are ready to start tomorrow! We all know we're going Pro swing, but what effect will it have in our league? I think it will tighten up the competition. I believe that at Master swing, some match-ups were sealed before it was even started. While there's always a favorite and an underdog everywhere, I like the odds of the underdog a little bit better at Pro swing. Anyone can now beat anyone without needing a complete miracle. Some Pool #1 players might be upset a little bit more often than before in Round 1. I think we'll see more ties in Round 4 with more parity in the scores. Instead of having a 8-10 shots difference between best and worst scores, I think it will be reduced to a 5-6 shots difference, thus creating more ties and parity. And let's not forget our golfer friends from Pool #4. There's no bad players in this league. Consistency is probably what was the missing key to alot of Pool #4 players in the past. A good week with tempo followed by a bad week because of no tempo... While everyone will still have bad weeks even at Pro swing, I expect Pool #4 players to close the gap a bit with other pools with the Pro change. Some could even transformed themselves into Pool #2 or #3 caliber every weeks. Keep an eye on them! 😉 You wanna know what up mup kupen nup asked me? To make a Power Ranking! Wich imply, ranking teams from the best to the last! 😃 Before any ball is hit in season #6! Too dangerous and slippy! 😉 But I will still make some predictions; Top 3 teams for championship, no particular order The Golfathers Shall we? The Pro Shot Golfers Golfers finishing Top 3 of SkyBlue MVP tee, no particular order boredomop karacakes PalutenaOn to week #1. We'll play a course called Toowoomba. Won't be remembered for the landscape, everyone should be focus on golfing! Potentially one of the easiest course of our season if we get friendly conditions. Large fairways, big greens, no real threat outside some bumpy greens. Course could maybe bite with high winds or a sneaky pin location though. Easy, but no gimme. Have a nice season folks! 🏌🏌♀️
