This week on the Kinetic we head to Cold Spring Hunt Club by alejandroacantilado, I wanted to play this weeks even at Hot Springs Hunt Club but it seems kinetic players are not rich enough to play there, that course is reserved for elite and platinum players only. Just another example of how we are screwed over here on the kinetic. In fact, it even gets worse for you guys this week, anyone that misses the cut, is removed from the golf part of the club and moved into the hunt part of the club and you will not be doing the hunting. It seems it is tradition for the poor(but financially poor and just poor at golf)players become the prey for the hunters from Hot Springs Hunt Club, so if you miss the cut this week, you will return the next day to the first tee with your fellow losers, you will be given a 30 second head start to run down the first fairway before the rich players start their bombardment using specially designed golf balls that explode on impact, they will drive from the first tee and see how many of you can they take out, after that, the real hunt begins, your goal, to make it to the 18th green to touch the finishing flag and a chance to play again at next weeks event.. Things will have changed on the golf course though, concealed traps litter the fairway, bunkers may or may not contain spike pits, some water hazards have been filled with deadly sea creatures. Which ones are safe and which ones are not, well there is only one way to find that out. Persionally I recommend teaming up with at least one more of your fellow cut line failures, if nothing else, you can use them to lets say help the hunters enjoy their hunt. Anyway, if and how your survive is up to you, for those that make the cut, have fun and good luck, for those that don't, well just good luck and I will see some of you next week when I think we are heading to the worlds worst farm, I really bring you guys to some amazing places here on the kinetic tour.

Well 2 of my best weeks ever on these pro tours. Last week I got 2 promotion points offsetting my 2 red strikes. And this week I sit at -26 at the half way point. And played all 4 rounds at -49
Not sure what I’m doing. But it feels good playing this game right once in a while. It’s been a long long time

You need to tell 2k to add the hunting to the 2k23 version. That would really be a nice change . Hahah

Well it looks like I'm being hunted this week. Hopefully the shooting ability of the Kinetic players is not as good as the golfing ability. Struggled to make putts all week. -20 at the halfway point.

So I decided to change it up this week and go right into my rounds as my morning coffee was brewing. Typically, I sweat out a few society rounds, make some coffee and eat something, fire up the stream, and head in when I feel the tempo is on; only to find my putter is frozen solid (Last week R1 total putts: 31) and all the "Carpy bounces" have been used up. This week, however, I fired off a -13/-16 before I even finished my first cup of coffee. Should be able to avoid demo marks with those scores haha! Even left a few out there by burning the edge of the cup on a few holes. Going to repeat this strategy for rounds 3 & 4 to see if my 'head first' theory is correct. (fingers crossed)

Feels good to be playing well again! Pair of -13s, nine pairings of 30 & 29 x 2 to sit at -26 at the cut. Usually I'm not the guy to knock people out of the cut, but when I do... I guess I just knocked out 20 people at -22 out of the running for the weekend and into fitting some running shoes instead. Oops. Hopefully I won't hunt any of those guys down to add even more insult to injury! Knew this might be a week to do something good when I knocked out a near 50 footer with probably a foot+ of downhill on 17th round 1. Felt like at that point I knew I was going to not miss the cut again this week. Still plenty left to find on the course too, only found some eagles at the back nine of round 2, when I had near misses of a couple more before. Let's go get it. My new target is to survive until Chambers Bay at the start of April (think that would make it 3 months here). If I play like this the next couple events, I'll definitely make it there. Cheers, good luck!

Consistency pays off this week! -13, -13, -14 to be different in round 3, -13. Only needed -17 in the last round to hunt for the win and catch the guy above, somehow was -12 through 13 and still in it but then parred 4 of last 5. Tempos and putter got too inconsistent so had to say no to that and then barely get a shot at top 10. Wasn't expecting to be anywhere near a possibility to winning this week so being 5 away and still thinking "what if" is fantastic. Also went about 55% in long putts this week out of 31 tries, I know I can be really solid in putting when I feel good about it but I didn't think I could go THAT hot! From two red thingies to one green in one sweep. Not thinking too hard about what could be, last time I did that I started sliding down... Cheers, good luck!
