Round 2, start at -2, birdie 1 off to a great start, then proceed to screw myself back to even par with 6 to play. I birdie 5 of the last 6 holes to get myself one behind the current cut line, this game is definitely a love/hate thing

Last week I shot better than my qualifier that landed me in G, yet still missed the cut in H. This week is already down the drain. Good news only two more weeks of withdraws before I drop into I.

Just got promoted the H from I, rather surprised but I guess 3 greenies and you get yanked up. Still scoring at the previous level in the first round, -4 and the cut was looking dicey. Round 2 got on a couple of hot chirp runs of 5 that offset an early Humph nicely, -9. -13 at the cut, should be ok? Onward! Did make the cut, mid table finish so no greenies. Solid start this week, -8 and -7 for -15 halfway and cut made. Now to do something with it! Onward!

Art Vandelay , almost identical round 1 cards at Carnoustie Cove !! Scarily so! Can't remember how I Humphed 11, maybe that is a good thing Enjoying the new game? Growing on me but not nearly as good as I was at 2K21. I am at a state where I don't dread playing. Onward!

Looking like I may need to run for mayor here! Solid start again this week (-8 and -6 with a Humph in each). Should make the cut, will see what I can do on the weekend. Onward!

Not nearly as much time to play these days but not a bad thing as there seems to be less activity on the forums esp. new course designs. Such a shame the top designers have been handed a broken design tool this time around. It’s unfathomable how you go backwards with something. Anyway… see you on the tee on Friday!

Thought I played well last night for an opening round -8 until the scores started to roll in. There's some big numbers this week!

Round one, I was -1 after 15 or 16 holes, looking like with a little consistency I'll make the cut. Proceed to duck hook one into OB woods, slice the next one in the water, threw my bag in the water and withdrew. CC-I here I come!

I get that dropping down a tier might help you competitively, but you have to grind out the rounds to get gooder. Onward!

I did not end up getting bumped down, and this week I put up a -9 at the turn, while its possible I'd be surprised if I missed the cut. What did I do different this week? Course management, a whole bunch of holes are asking for trouble with driver this week, I played irons off some. I'll take 200 from the fairway instead of 100 from a sand bunker (or playing 3 from the tees after getting one wet) all day long in this game

-5 then -6 for -11 halfway. Make the cut? Sure, but need something special to get in greenie range.
Onward!

-8 this is week to make the cut 😁 3rd round of 69 put me to -11 and looking forward to go 4 rounds under par. I was -2 after a poor ish 14 holes only for things to go really bad the next 3 holes.I shot a 9 on the 15th,stroke limited the 16th and a 5 on 17th to leave me with an 82 final round. 82 and only bogeyed 4 holes 🙈
