Thanks a lot Wag. My main problems in the game are very linked. Sidewind and sidebreaking putts. I fail to calculate the effects of the wind in terms of the line of the shot. I usually get the right distance, but I fail the line. That leaves a lot of sidebreaking putts, as most of the greens are sloped from back to front or viceversa. In that scenario I barely make a putt of more than 6 ft. First, I tried to adjust my distance, and for that, the loft of the clubs is becoming very useful. Now I'm more focused in the wind, as for the putts, in fact I'm pretty decent, I don't use to miss the putts by much. Thanks a lot wag! You know, it's funny. I've been making a lot of 19 and 20 ft putts lately out of necessity because I'm so bad at getting close to the pin. But not enough to score well and not enough to make up for all the bad drives into the rough or sand. If my long game was better, I'd be doing a lot better. Wags your one spot ahead of me in the money rankings. I'm gunna have to bring it this week

So here are my scores for week 12:
#1 - 73 #2 - 69 #3 - 69 #4 - 73
That sums up to a +4 for the tournament.
I must say I like these tough courses. Some of these Par 4s and Par 3s were very long, so that you can score a bogey very fast. The greens were also very tough to play. It was fun to play.
Good luck out here guys.

This tourney was so hard it looks like I might actually miss a strike with a +5. My big problem was actually not the greens but the wind differences from normal due to the trees around the greens.

Finished with a +9 for the tourney. My putting was awful but these greens were tough this week. The awful hook I developed this week didn't do me any favors either haha. I'm hoping to make the middle of the pack the way Pablo is shooting! Like the rendition of Firestone; great job by the designer.

Well, after 3 rounds posted I've finally dropped to 75th place and a 2nd demotion strike is pretty likely. Next week is going to be a big tourney for me to see if I can keep out of Z Class.
Looking forward to the challenge as I seem to have finally straightened out my drives and my putting has improved immensely. And thanks to everybody's help with the winds thread, you should see some of my approach shots now. Coming much closer to the pin.
Next week just might be my breakout one.

And after 3 rounds, a exemption is starting to become a real possibility. It's not sure, but I'm in a good position to get. And after my scores, I hadn't even thought about it...

Had a very good week, probably my best yet this season! Currently sitting at 2nd Place. The course was one of the toughest I've played in recent weeks, months. Long holes coupled with diabolic greens made it a tough challenge.
66 - 70 - 72 - 63 (Total -9)
Had a very good last round, was able to land my ball near the pin, which is pretty much the key to having success on a course like this one. Well it seems I will now go up and play a few weeks in CC-D before I come back with you guys (Because I will haha.)
See you at Emirates!

I'm just fighting to hang onto E. Currently in 72nd but a few guys above me look like they're going to drop so who knows.

Just keep practicing, it's the key!

Well, I just crept up to 71st place with another drop. Two players above me still with just one round posted and pretty high scores. So it looks like I'm going to finish around 69th.
Might just dodge this bullet yet. LOL.

Hey guys, I received my exemption for the E circuit.. Can I still play both Z and E flight?

No. Because in both cases you must play the same tour. You just need to submit your scores for the flight you belong to. In this case the E
