Introduce Yourself

[nvyscporet]

Hi all.  My name is Danny aka nvyscporet on XB1. I retired in 2010 after 26 years in the US Navy. I currently work as a private duty nurse for children and really enjoyed it.  I've been playing golf games for a long time. My passion is bowling but got bored with it as I bowled 5 times a week years ago. I really enjoy TGC and would love to be near the top of the leaderboards but I have a way to go for that. Cheers.

Hi all, I'm Jim. I've been playing golf in real-life for the better part of 35 years. I always enjoyed sim golf going back to World Class Leader Board. I played a lot of ladder matches with the Links LS series via Kali, yeah, I'm old!

I really enjoy TGC, as it is probably the best sim I've played since Links LS, and provides a very realistic challenge. I've been married for 12 years and enjoy playing golf with my wife IRL and on the Xbox One. I'm looking forward to this generation of competitive console golf.

Hey guys, I'm Brad. Just discovered the game 2 days ago and was interested, but when I saw the twitter feed talking about TGC Tours my excitement grew by immensely. Bought the game before I even left work and started the download once I got home. I'm 34 and have been playing golf since I was 6. The game is a tremendous challenge that finally makes a string of solid pars feel rewarding in a video game. I've only played about 24 holes and I need to get a little more practice in before starting Q-School but I can't wait to have all these fun tournaments to play in 2015. I just got a PS4 and I haven't even unwrapped GTA5, LotR or MLB14 because I wanted to play this game. Everyone on here seems like good people so far, looking forward to playing, chatting, and hopefully we all get better at the game.

If you're looking for someone to play with on PS4 my gamertag is the same, BPunderpar21. Though it may be awhile before my gamertag holds any truth!

Hey everyone; I'm Karsten, been playing TGC since it was in Beta. Been a golfer since I was younger (play to about a 10-14 handicap) and love the game; got really excited when I discovered TGC. Play as ClassicPhil, look forward to the results of Q-School and the upcoming tournaments on whatever tour I end up on.

Hey gang. Awesomely diverse group of folks here. I'm loving reading through these.

I'm Chris, more commonly known as Joe Punchface on most of the internets. I play on PS4 under the clever name Joepunchface. I'm more than willing to play with any of my fellow TGCTours competitors.

I'm a life-long gamer and have always loved golf video games of all forms, though this is easily my favorite. I also play a fair amount of other games (Hearthstone, Diablo 3, Binding of Isaac, Far Cry, Call of Duty, etc) though my gaming time has diminished greatly in the last few months.

In real life I used to play a fair amount of golf, in-spite of my lack of skill (around a 15 to 18 handicap, though not official). However, after moving to Brooklyn five years ago my ability to get out to the links has also diminished greatly.

I absolutely love what the TGCTours guys are doing here and I think it is going to be a great success. I'm trying to get more involved in the community here on the forums and I hope to see you guys out on tour!

[MLT24]

Hello players!

I go by MLT24 in all games I play and have been around on TW games for a long time. On Tour they have me down as Mark L. Touring. Not my real name though.

I am 48 years old and I was putting quarters in video games since early 70's. I had an Intellivision when I was early teens and it had all the sports games and my favorite was the golf game. It is amazing how far it has come.

In my late teens and early 20's I played real golf every day of the week for almost 10 years. Played a little college golf and my lowest handicap was a 3. Best round I ever played was a 68 on my home course. I once was 6 under after 9 holes and the men (much older) told me I was on pace to beat the course record. I had no idea there even was one at the time, never thought about it. But after they said that I finished from there around 5 over and blew it. I wished that had not said anything to me. Golf is a crazy game!

And this game is a lot like real golf and I been waiting on a great sim golf game for a long time. So glad HB brought us one. And TGC Tours rock! Just a great thing they are doing here!

Thanks! And good luck out there everyone. Hit'em strait!

[justamush]

Hey guys, my name is Jason but my PSN name is justamush. I am 35 years old and have been playing video games since the Atari 2600. I even had a golf game on there and would make my dad watch me play Atari golf instead of letting him watch the real thing.

I just finished up qualifying with a -12, which I hope should be good enough to get me a PGA Tour card. My goal right now isn't to win any events, but to at least qualify for the FedEx Cup.

thankyou and welcome! hope you have a good stay here

[humanfish]

Hey everyone
I have just signed up to take part in Q-School and the whatever tour i qualify. First, congratulations to all the admins and site staff, you have a spectacular setup here and should be very proud of what you have achieved in such a short space of time.

My name is Adam, i'm 29, and i run a PlayStation gaming community called PlayStation Game Leagues (or PlayStationGL).  I've been running it with a few others, off and on, for around 6 years now. We have all sorts of gaming leagues, but i have always run the golf leagues. Nothing particularly epic in size, just a small group ranging from 5 to 12 guys back when we used to play TW games. I recently set up a TGC 'tour' which has attracted 15-20 great guys who take part in a weekly tournament. Nothing on this scale, but it is fun in its own way and I hope people enjoy the challenge and getting to know new people on their friends list.

I dabble in real life golf, i fall into the 'all the gear, no idea' camp, but i do enjoy my virtual golf. Particularly after a day at work in an office. I'm not particularly great, but i enjoy the challenge albeit not at the time often.

Well, i hope to see you on the fairways, if not at the 19th

[AFCTUJacko]

Hi guys.

I'm Jack (or Jacko) and play The Golf Club with Fish over at PSGL.

Seriously impressive setup here.

I'm the model of inconsistency (as my Q School scores will tell you!) but hopefully i can start at the bottom and work my way up over time!

Allow myself to introduce uhhh myself

I'm Bill... a devout golfer that cycles between a 1 to +1 handicap. I've played about every pc golf game ever made and love to both play and design.

I'm a computer dork by day but do some work on the side for TaylorMade as well so pretty loyal to them and they hold almost every spot in my bag (except putter... their putters suuuuuck)

Most likely on my way to the web.com which is fine... the groupies are more adventurous and less likely to text my wife on Thanksgiving!

[maxcheeba]

Whats up guys, my name is Bosco but my PS4 name is MaxCheeba. I'm from Chicago and I currently sit at the very bottom of the leader board lol. I still absolutely love this and plan on improving.
