Welp...it finally happened. How about a big round of applause for moneyman273 busting that cherry. Another close shave by a Razor. Too bad I was not Twitch recording this. The natural reaction was priceless. Oh I'll give you all the reaction. Just like it was at Ryder Cup when I holed out from the thick cabbage 91 yards away........ (Blowing up Dave's eardrum) YES!!!!!!!!...............................yes.......................yes! Meanwhile, Dave didn't even know I had an ace until I told him. True friend he is.

There's SOMETHING on my fittings or skill points that has always made my green speeds a smidge higher than everyone else. What it is, I have zero clue. In Skills. Putter. Column 7. 'For Dough'. Make sure you don't have it on Level 1 as this gives you a permanent 'Roll' boost which increases Green Speed. Instead Move it to Level 2 which gives you a permanent Putt Weight boost instead.
Also, Putter. Column 5. 'Greenskeeper'. Make sure you have no points in this one as this gives you a temporary Roll boost (increases Green Speed) when you miss two Greens in Reg. It then deactivates again when you score 1/2 pars etc.
Noted. I'll check both of these assets as my skill points were utilized without me completely understanding how they all affected my game. Thank you Kie!

The natural reaction was priceless. Well done Jason! If I were you I would purchase a lottery ticket NOW! also is there any confirmed sightings of pigs flying around North Carolina? I did indeed see Porky Pig flying around with wings, heading toward the Outer Banks/Atlantic Ocean.

The natural reaction was priceless. Lol, how are your eardrums today Dave? I would have laughed so hard if it had stopped half a roll short! Is that mean? Great shot moneyman273 He may need to get a new headset as I'm concerned that I may in fact have blown up his speakers LOL

Congrats Money!!! Just wait till this spreads through the senior living homes….🤣😂🔥 Me on break after an exhilarating game of bingo with the ladies: "Hey girls, I got me a hole in one last night!" Blanche, Maude, Deloris, Ruby and Phoebe exclaim in unison: "That's what she said!"

Greatly appreciate it fellas. It was just a local match Dave rhino4life and I were playing last night, not society based or anything. I played a full round on the Razer, he listened to my explanation as to how I was swinging. Very interesting to hear that he uses the thumb at 6:00 and the index finger at 12:00 (like he's pinching the left stick). He helped me with timing by simply explaining what he does. I tried that and while it was "better" than the two thumb method, I still wanted to figure out the left thumb only, left stick method. So what did I do? I put the left thumb at 6:00 rather than the entire thumb on the middle of the swing stick. GREATLY improved swing line and those incessant moments of 10 "practice" swings where my timing was off as Giraffe72 indicated I probably was. (as you all saw, I had the downswing occur four times before it actually registered on swing 5. Annoying still but I will continue to work at it). Fired a -8 on what I'd say a somewhat easy course. That being said, I think I'm over the hump a bit and will give the Razer a go. Thanks again for the help Dave.

Great shot moneyman273 Better yet Giraffe72, I get a hole in one, the ball hits the bottom of the cup and then it gets spit out like GDog's rejected ace at Augusta on the EA game. OMG would that not have been savage.

I place my thumb on the bottom half of the analogue nub instead of in the centre of it as I feel like I'm under swinging othwrwise

And put that old controller in the trash.

It appears I have a good shot a taking home CC-A trophy. A 3 stroke lead thru 4 rds. There are 3 guys who haven't teed off since cut that may take me down. Judging my company on xbox's society with all of BoB's top pros I may stand a chance. Worst case I will be promoted to Kinetic.

BobWatch on the Tours! asyoudo64 Ross 'I don't play this game anymore' Nixon top of the pile in the Major qualifier. chalkey84 with yet another top 10 on Platinum. BENNY6676 and bmells33 both looking like promoting out of Elite I only wanted to get to Kinetic. A top 10 and two green ticks in my first week, might be a short stay. xEB50x has a good chance of doing the same. Demonondalinks 3 shots clear in CCA and looking like picking up his first ever Tours win. Not counting chickens but I think you've got it Todd, congrats 👏. Either way, see you in Kinetic next week 😎. justjordannnnn has a shot of getting right up there too.... Newbie chflack10 5th in CCE. There's a PS player called Markus Schmidt winning in CCJ 🤔. And let's not forget True Sim this week, subtlebees in 2nd. A few others in promo mark spots ( rhino4life) and others still with rounds to play. #TeamXbox
