I noticed if you go to the course description in the tournament schedule you can see what the default green speed of the course is. It gives you a number but not what it gives in upper right corner of screen.

How do you guys choose your settings for practice then if the rounds in the weather report are not in order? Do you just pick high wind and fast and firm greens every time?

No I make my best guess how the scheduler will want it played. Rd 1 usually a tad easier than 2 or 3. Rd 4 can go either way. Either easy or brutal. It’s a guessing game. If you join OldmanGamings society TGC Practice site he does a really good job with picking the settings How do you guys choose your settings for practice then if the rounds in the weather report are not in order? Do you just pick high wind and fast and firm greens every time?

How is it possible to get three demotion marks off one tournament? The leaderboard projects I had zero before this week. I checked and I haven't carried any over any red marks from previous weeks. When you have a promo mark and miss cut, you'll automatically drop one mark, then if you fall below the -1 mark it will drop you 2 (80% of field and below), if you fall below the 90% of field (-2 marks), it will drop you 3. You had 2 promos, and finished below 90%, so -1 fir cut, and -2 for below 90% = 3 demos. Same works in reverse for demo marks. If you have a demo and make cut, you'll clear 1 (+1 promo which clears 1 demo), finish above 15% of field and you'll get +2 promo, finish above 7.5% and you'll get +3 promo. Keep in mind each promo mark will clear 1 to 1 demo marks, and each demo mark will clear 1 to 1 promo marks depending on how you finish and what you have currently.

Still not doing well with a -6 at the cut, I shot +3 in the first round. I still can't putt on 155 or faster greens. I don't use forward swings when I putt, I keep my entire swing in the backswing and expect the putter to automatically carry through. I expect the game to automatically put the ball in the hole when I put the ball on the edge of the hole! I don't pay attention to my swing path or spin when I putt! I expect automatic hole entry; I shot -31 two weeks ago with this approach! I am still having the problem of resting my thumb on the L stick during shots also.

Shooter on payroll like El Señor de los Cielos! I shot -14, -31 on CC this week thanks to two holeout eagles and a closing 59! Just two weeks ago you were on a roll. what happened?

Basically total loss of putting tempo. I only putt well when I guess the putting tempo for a given course or green speeds. I actually have no putting tempo. I can't feel anything swinging forward of the vibration when I putt using the Razor. So I overhit or side hit the hole with most of my putts with the backswing and pray that they go in.

As we have said - you don't have to guess - the game tells you what speed on greens is.. For your motion - if you are good at 134 speed - then use the same for 155 but just don't pull back as far. There is no such thing as automatic putting, LOL, that's actually funny. IF my putt stroke was automatic I'd for sure be on Platinum by now..

Sometimes my hands will feel numb and there is really nothing I can do about it.

Week 2 completed.... Congrats to the winners:Alpha - DoubtfulObelisk wobekillin -30 Bravo - lowtoe -20 Charlie - OldManGaming606 -15 Delta - paulm912 Ace - r0nrun Ace-a-tross - Demonondalinks (awesome BTW) Solid course this week. The twisty-turn fairways gave me some fits especially in round two. Thought I played the course well all things considered. Had to really rush through the second round unfortunately due to watching the Nicholas254 v bigbluestu78 Ryder Cup tilt that was not sealed until the final putt on 18. The half-assed effort gave me a half-assed round two score. This week will be Bailingbrook Golf Club by Ryder Cup lurker arielatom (appreciate you being in the streams). Solid course which you come to expect. There will be a mixed set of winds on slower green speeds. I tried to use something a little faster but I will take it easy on people this week. Ryder Cup update:First session ended 4-4 Second session ended 4.5 to 3.5 for Europe Third session in progress with USA up 4-1 in singles and leading 11.5 to 9.5 for the event. There are four more matches to be played on Tuesday and Wednesday. Things could go a lot of different directions depending on these results. TUESDAY MAY 21ST - 2:30pmEST / 7:30pmGMT - WOBEKILLIN TWITCH WOBEKILLIN CHALKEY84
