That is a real shame... I know I'm guilty of trying to play too many events and therefore missing a lot. Will try and get back on and support speed golf! Always enjoy it

First post updated with results. Wow. How do you guys play so fast? I knew the course backwards & felt like I was rushing like crazy & scored ok but I'm still one of the slowest. Does loading time / internet connection speed impact this? |

Bummed that I missed out on speed golf this week, but I'll be back next week (and will be gunning to try to close in on your win total  ). |

My time per shot was really low this week. probably helped by I think 3 out of bounds and finding the water in the 16th! About 8 shots in 10 seconds!!!
It's a shame the numbers are down but I think this week more started but gave up due to the course.

Does loading time / internet connection speed impact this? It's only the time from your first swing to your last. You do need to skip through the scoreboard between holes. Other than that on most shots you just have to make a small quick adjustment and go for it, using preview as little as possible. ichaoz is the best person to answer this though as he's always near the top. |

I've watched Keith on the HB streams so I knew to skip previews, etc. I didn't need to use the overhead as it is my course. I can see where 1-2 minutes went in my round but not 5-6. I was pressing A to move on and play as fast as possible. I have no idea how I can make up that much time (except by eagling every other hole :-)). It's interesting that the best times seem to be PC players. Do the holes load faster on good PCs? I'm on XB1. I would be interested to see if someone who has a user on multiple systems can match their own times across different platforms. I will still give it a go again this week to see if I get any better but any hints / tips would be much appreciated. |

I may be wrong on this but it seems like ever since it got its own separate board, it's not as visible and people have kind of forgotten about it... which is too bad

I hope it will become more popular again once it's fully integrated into tgctours, but that is taking time to do at the moment -- it's not as simple as the other tours! |

My first (and still probably best) speed golf round can be found here, and my most recent round starts at 1:30:00 in this video. Also, here is Chaoz's Twitch profile. He's usually pretty decent, I guess. |
