Boy oh boy you can tell the EA game is out. Entrants in almost all the CC tours is way down. In ours only 85 entries so far and usually we are over 110.
Speaking of the greens putting has always been my weakness but with these higher speeds my average putts is way up and. Nothing like a 4 putt on a Par 5 after getting home in 2.

I'm having major issues with the backswing glitch this past fortnight or so. In the previous months it would only be an issue every now and then, but it's really bad at present. Has something changed recently and why is this happening? I would be grateful for any suggestions.

I always pull the club back then slowly bring it forward to rest, then bring it back and take my swing. Part of it is a tempo thing, but it also cancels out the glitch because it doesn't matter if the backswing glitch happens because you aren't going to swing on the initial pullback. If that makes sense.

Managed a -6 on Day One of the Oceanic. Could easily be higher, but despite being dead on with the weight of a putt, my aim and reading breaks sucks. We'll see what Day Two brings tomorrow.
Also, I don't ever go directly into a TGC round. I play a round of MyCareer to work out the kinks before the TGC round. Cheers.

I see 93 as I type this. I think they pushed some of our players up to K to fill in and we simply haven't seen an uptick in new qualifiers yet.

Yes that's possible but I am inclined not to think that's the reason. Looking at Qualifying 8 people were slotted into the CC-L. I don't think we had that many promotions out though. They don't just arbitrarily promote people. The winner moves up and anyone who reaches 3 or more Promotion points. That wasn't 8 people based on what I saw. Plus there were demotions from CC-K down to CC-L. I've noticed society play in general is down. one week is definitely too early to determine a trend. It will be interesting though.

Hello CCL community!
Finally got my card last week and here I am. Look forward to the conversation in here with you all.
Started this week -5, E and just started round 3 - It’s very poorly lit, can’t stand these low horizon rounds. I’m finding it really hard to see and it adds nothing to have lighting like this.

In the end, the newness of EA will wane and people will become bored of the 30 courses. Without access to hundreds of new courses inside the competition of TGC, the boredom will become palpable in due time.

Welcome to CC-L Oscar! Are you saying round 3 is poorly lit or all of them? I found round 1 darn near perfect for lighting.

Welcome to CC-L Oscar! Are you saying round 3 is poorly lit or all of them? I found round 1 darn near perfect for lighting. The first 8 holes of round 3 are in darkness for me at least. Sun is higher now as the round progresses and I only just realised it moves during the round. Or maybe it doesn’t and the reflection off water made it look lower before?

I had a real clunker of a round in Rd 3. Shot 75 with a horrible round of putting. It's going to be a very small payday this week

-1 at the cut, will probably play rounds 3/4 tonight if I get the chance. This far down already hopefully I string together a couple of good rounds.
