I now bring you your weekly laugh 78 (+6) 84 (+12) 81 (+9) 82 (+10) +37 for the tourney...look for me at the bottom of the standings and demoted to CC-E next week. Good luck in CC-D boys....you may see me again in the future. You still improved over last weeks tournament.. Improve each week and you will be golden...

Man, those greens are wicked. Played first two rounds and as usual, 14 mph in round two. Back to the greens... You have to be so conservative because of downhills after the hole, and that makes little bitty puts break like crazy. I think I said " Are you freakin kidding me?" About 10 times per round. What a clinch-fest.

I've not played yet, nor have I even practised this course but it will be strike 3 for me too, I've stopped caring it;s a bit of fun and I dont care if I suck, i'm just gonna play every week with screaming kidney even tho we are in different divisions, maybe we can win one in CC-Z cos that where i'm heading

Just got done with my four rounds.... Man this was a tough one... I've been fiddling with my shot making for a week or two, really trying to learn the draw/fade method and loft and such.... Trying to keep from having 30 footers on greens that are slicker than a booger in a jar of honey!!!
Anyway,...Had a pretty good tourney... Not sure where it'll place, but Im happy with my progress so far
Round 1: 10-12 mph winds 70 (-2) Round 2: 12-15 mph winds 72 (E) Round 3: 11-14 mph winds 66 (-6) Round 4: 5-7 mph winds 65 (-7)
Final score for tourney (-15)
Tough course, but I go lucky enough to make a few putts, and not leave myself 20-40 footers....That made a huge difference..
Good luck gang the rest of the way
Terry

I haven't started yet, I've just had a few practice rounds and I'm shooting around par every round. If I'm honest I've struggled with this course. I like it but I'm not scoring well. I find that there are bogeys all over this course and that its ok to be patient and happy with pars. I'll start the tourney tomorrow and I'll do my best. I fear the scores you've posted are out of my reach this week though dude. Haha. Wish me luck and again, great scoring!!

Played my first round.. Winds were brutal and I hated the direction they were blowing.. Started off with nerves in my fingers.. Kept hitting small cuts the first few holes.. On the front nine was 5 over at one point (all bogeys).. I battled back to a +1 / 73.. Think I will wait to play the second round as I hear the winds are worse in that round.. Good Luck to everyone this tourney !

Gave it absolutely everything in this tournament.
I turned the concentration up to 11. Turned John's comments off so I wasn't distracted at all, turned off the ghost balls so I wasn't lured into playing a risky shot.
I know it's only a game folks but I took this tournament more seriously than any other tournament. The course demands respect, it's waiting to bite you in the ass.
Good luck everyone, play well out there!

Saw that first round score... outstanding shooting man Thanks TG. To be honest, I have no idea where these rounds came from. I was practicing with a guy from CC-A yesterday and we were both around par every round. I think turning John off was key! Haha

Just finished my 4th round, shot 73, 71, 69, 68.
First tournament that I've managed to finish under par so I'm really happy with that. Over shot the 1st green in my 3rd and 4th round causing me to triple and double bogey. Putting down the slope from the back of that green was a nightmare so wasn't the best of starts but I did manage to flop in for an eagle on the 18th in my 4th round so that was a huge bonus.
Hopefully I'll avoid my 3rd demotion strike with a half decent score this week. Good luck everyone.

You should easily finish in the top 30..
