Here it is finally, the no friends PC farm by thelymphrhodes . I am not going to write a intro this week as I had already done that weeks ago when the course was supposed to be used but then a shady deal between Apple and the admins meant a different course was used instead, a deal I was left out of. that hurt you know, really hurt, but time heals. especially when that time is spent on a private island in the Caribbean. A word of warning to the five people that read this every week, round three is brutal, it is meant to be brutal. It is meant to bring tears, rage, pain, you know the sort of feeling that brings joy, happiness and laughter to us schedulers. In fact, I think there should not even be a cut line this week, everyone should be forced to play round 3 so I can feed, feed off the suffering, so I can drink the salty tears.At least Doyley should be made play, make him regret the day he sold a tour spot for a iPad Pro. Anyway, good luck and have fun all.

6 people will be reading your meanderings this week Dan, because I’m back! At least I will be if no one turns up late to knock me off my perch in CCA and so long as I pass the post tournament drug test!

Congrats on the win Sam, well done! Onward!

Opening with a 59 (-11) this week. That's much better than the last couple of weeks. Possibly play round 2 later on after the next game of footy finishes.

I hear the word footy and I know we have another bloody Australian on the kinetic. The word also brings back nightmares, “ Uncle Dan, let’s play footy” not “ Uncle Dan, let’s play computer games” like normal Irish kids, I mean going outdoors for fun, what the hell is wrong with you guys.

So I watched a couple of people play round three and the wind was not as bad as it was during testing, during testing the entire circle was full, seems the golfing gods are smiling on you guys, still a tough round but not as bad as it could have been. Guess I go hungry this week,

At least I'll make the cut this week

I have been atrocious for a month now. Think this will be my 4th straight Kinetic cut miss after making every one post patch til this run. Not sure what I'm doing. Got bit by a glitch in this one...rolled the ball over a green about 10 yards out. Was standing in water, but the ball wasn't. Took a swing, the ball went nowhere and then said it was in the water. Proceeded to have to drop from 150 out then. Was -4 thru 6....basically gave up after the hose job.

Finished at -30 for the week. Rounds got progressively worse each day. Couldn't find any rhythm in the final round then messed up the 18th for a -5.

That was the equivalent of the Irish Olympic Swimming squad.... participated, swam well for my level, if they could swim in a straight line then the national record would have been beaten, everyone is very proud, but ultimately made NO impact on the competition Rd1 -7 Rd2 -6
Lovely course by the way, the amount and quality of sculpting is extraordinary.

Ireland has won medals at the Olympics for swimming so there,ok she more than likely cheated but her ban came after the Olympics so she kept her medals.

Another week, another closely missed cut, another no demo marks, yawn. I totally agree with Riotous about the course though, it is a beaut!

100% of short putts don’t go in
Words of wisdom from a smart arse golf buddy years ago, and it turns out it’s true in Computer golf too. This isn’t a tale of bad fortune but a tale of being scared to hit it past the hole, what’s behind the hole to be scared of I hear you ask, NOTHING! Hit the bloody thing!
Rd3 -6. On the cusp of an anonymous top twenty finish. Do I play now and hope others fall short or do I wait and play under the pressure of knowing the score I need?
