Holy moly those are some low scores. Too tired to play my rounds this evening so will give it a shot tomorrow, but might need to put in some practice beforehand if I'm going to keep up! Congrats to Wutpa and Violinguy69 for getting our team off to an amazing start

Definitely a wild week to start the new season. When I see the low scores (-87 for a tournament is pure witchcraft) I usually struggle for some reason. Didn’t love the start at all, picked things up some late but weird to score this low and have lots of regrets. R1: -12 R2: -14 R3: -17 R4: -14 round two card round four card

Congrats to Wutpa and Violinguy69 for getting our team off to an amazing start Compared to last week, this course is much easier, and with easy conditions in the first two rounds, there have been some very low numbers out there. 19-under is leading CC-B after the first round. Yikes.

Welp, I thought I'd get a practice round in before I started on my Dirtbags round, so I decided to play round 1 of the Kinetic tournament. I was -11 after 12 holes after playing out of my skin, but then flatlined for the rest of the round. I should have taken that as a sign to take a break, because I then went on to play possibly my worst ever Dirtbags round and I'm quite frankly amazed it was a -8 and not over par. High(low)lights: - Hole 1: Reached the green in 2 on the par 5 with a long uphill putt in front of me. Moved the marker alongside the pin so I could see it better, then forgot to move it back to the full distance while doing my practice swings. Hit the shot massively underpowered - it makes it halfway up the hill and then rolls back down to roughly the same distance away as it started. End up with a par. Definitely should have stepped away from the screen at this point... - Lost count of the number of drives that hit a bumpy bit of fairway and went sideways, just creeping into the heavy rough despite the announcer's insistence that I'd hit a great shot which is definitely going to finish on the fairway, honest. - Numerous shots from the rough which made no sense whatsoever and fell way short of the green. Examples: a 215 yard club from a 96% lie in light rough, carries 170 yards. Also a splash from the heavy rough (72% lie I think) so I aimed for 33 yards to get 25, carried about 12. Both good 100% swing and tempo. The lie lied. - One putt which absolutely, definitely rolled slowly and directly over the centre of the hole. I refuse to watch any replays to confirm this. - Stone cold putter for most of the round, missing nearly every 10-20ft putt by exactly the same distance on the low side. I learned nothing from this. If it wasn't for 4 of 5 chip ins from off the green I'd be in a much worse state, but I fear that I've made a win for our team rather unlikely in the first round Might need a few drinks before round 2... bino819Round 1:

Gents, One additional thing for this season, courtesy of prowse00In conjunction with our regular Dirtbags season, he'll also be running The Dirtbags Champions League, which will work kind of similarly to the Champions League in Europe for soccer (or football for you guys across the pond!). We'll have round robin play followed by an elimination bracket for the top 16 scorers and it won't require any additional rounds or anything like that. Just go along with your regular TGC/Dirtbags rounds. Details are all here along with the rules. I'll let Sean step in if I've missed anything, but pretty straightforward. I'll add this to the main post when we get started this weekend. billybudd0623Click the "here" in above post.In the rules bit...3rd round being used.
