Wow, those were easy pin placements. Let's hope it stays that way. I missed 3 short putts (typical) and still shot a 65. Winds 6-11. Good luck!

Shot a -11 61 here yesterday in 7-9mph winds. Coulda be a sub 60 round if not for a couple burned edges.

Hey Jim
I played it last night for the first time and shot an -11... Looking at the global board, I saw your name up there with the same score.... I was happy for you... It takes some time in the beginning, but once it starts coming together like that its awesome.... Good shooting man...
Now we all know, when it comes to tourney week, winds of 20mph will show their ugly heads... LOL

I thank the community here for helping me as I tried to( and am still trying to) hone my abilities in this game. For those who looked past what appeared to be me blaming the game and saw I had issues I needed some help with I'm truly grateful. It's coming around...but there is still a mountain to climb.

What I noticed on the differences between the two tour set ups . Putts breaking a lot less than last several weeks courses. Aside from pin locations, the big difference between tours A/B is the yardage. A is only 7064 and B is 7271. That radically changes the T-box club selection, as of course will the wind when it comes. Good luck to all.

Tour A is really easy, shot a 65 just now (albeit in very light winds) and missed quite a number of birdie opportunities. Never even came close to dropping a shot.

Tour B is currently serving up 12-15mph crosswinds right now...I never thought I'd be happy with an even round of 72..but in 12-15's I'll take it

Just played Mistwood A in 15-19mph winds. Hole #15 was 18 mph head wind...couldn't even hit the fairway on the straight away portion to the right with a full driver and a dead straight tee shot..came up short. Laughable. I guarantee we see the same this week...careful out there..it's gonna be a carbon copy of Le Golf. I shot a 61 in 7-9 mph winds earlier this week....this round the winds were double that and the course played what seemed like 1000 yards longer. Carded a +5 77 and I had to work for every stroke.

I tried to access the course yesterday but It wouldn't let me play it. I'm going to try again this weekend but does anyone know why this happens? Is it because someone is editing the course?

I setup a practice tour on xbox if anyone wants to practice in the winds... Only played through round 2, but was seeing 12mph in round 1 and 15/16mph in round 2.
Think I named it TGC Mistwood practice or something like that.

There's one on PS4 (I forget the name) and it was literally 0-1 mph in Round 1 and 20-22 mph in Round 2.

I believe it's a Highlands course, which would require the DLC pack -- that's probably why it's not letting you play.
