So I have just done my first round and by god that was tough.
There wasn't even bad winds (8km/h) but the greens are tough and the traps around them are pretty unforgiving.
Around in 85 with two treble bogies thrown in for good measure...

It's so fun choking during the tournaments. That is all. I suck

I've withdrawn from this and the next tournament. What's the sense in practicing a course when it completely changes once they put the tournament settings in?

When you tie the course record at -11 the night before but don't break par on any of the four tournament rounds...PRICELESS

None of my notes lined up...no points on the greens stuck...clubs into 10 mph winds flew greens. I raged and took a 12 in my 2nd round on one hole. It's pathetic...how does the course change that much once they set it up for a tournament? I don't get it. I played 3 rounds but I doubt I'll submit any of my scores this week. 82 86 76

You have 135 posts on these forums and 120 of them are you complaining about how hard this game is or how TCGT is screwing you over. Give it a rest or give the game a rest.

Give it a rest or give the game a rest. and you have 7 posts and 5 are quoting my posts Or I could just set the perimeters of my mouse and straight shoot like everyone else It's all good...if I can't score well I might as well complain about my struggles. The game isn't overly hard...I do fine playing the courses on my own. I just suck it up once the tournament settings go in. Thanks for the kind words though. I'll consider the source and move on ...and no...I'm not a good guy Cheers.

Straight headwind at 10mph plays like 12-15 extra yards. If pin is in middle of green and you've flown it then you've probably gone a club too much.

If pin is in middle of green and you've flown it then you've probably gone a club too much. 10mph headwind should play 15-20 yards up if you are using the proper 150-200% calculation. I wish more people would just read the tips and tricks thread and use some of the calculation tools and club distance sheets that are provided. It would make the game a much better experience for them as far as scoring opportunities go.

If pin is in middle of green and you've flown it then you've probably gone a club too much. into a 10mph.. rule of thumb is one club...I clubbed up one and even hit it under 100% and still flew the green. Besides..I'm not the only person it happened to if you read through the posts in the threads. It's all good..I'm in E now...won't have to deal with me anymore here
