Interesting course Ya..I shot a -9 on the Thur...then put up a 60 on the Fri..but could only muster -4 on the Saturday...then shot -11 for the Sun for -36...lots there...if the winds are like my practice tournament it's gonna get torched.

Well, I finished the first 2 rounds of the practice tour and shot +1 and even par and that was in pretty strong winds over 10 mph. So it looks like I should shoot around par for this one. Hopefully, it will be good enough to sneak me into the top 70 and avoid a demotion strike.
I'm content to stay in Class E. It's probably where I belong anyway.
Other than that, i actually like this course. It's interesting to play. Watch out for that water on 17. A bad drive can land you in the drink.
** EDIT ** Finished round 3 of practice and shot 2 under. So 1 under for tour. Like I said, I'll probably shoot around par when this goes live. Course is just tough enough to keep me from scoring low.
** 2nd EDIT ** Fell apart on the final round with too many pulled shots. Ended with a +6 or the round and +5 for the tourney.
Once I correct my swing off the drive, I'll subtract at least 3 to 5 strokes off of every round. That could make a huge difference all by itself.
All in all, love the course. Very challenging and fun to play.

Can't seem to wrap my head around the Saturday setup. I can dial in Thur/Sat/Sun to the point where I feel I can average -10 per round in practice...but Saturday just seems to bite me every time. Personal best -4 is all I've been able to muster on that pin setup..and it's not overly hard. I think I may concentrate some practice rounds on just the Saturday pin and see if I can iron out the kinks. I'm determined to go low at Emirates especially if I hold on to a top 10 at Firestone and earn an exemption. I want that CC-C card so bad I can taste it.

Just use the force and stay away from the dark side. LOL.

Closest I have ever come to firing my controller against the wall in my last round. I think I need to take a break.

I managed a -7 on there today and no idea how, I really wasn't even into it. Course must have been in a generous mood today. Except for Jim, looks like he got my usual dirty end of the stick by the sounds of it. Somehow managed to shoot 14 under on the Sat set up. Wish i had saved it for the actual tournament!

OK...so I took a deep breath...tee'd it up again..and proceeded to hit -10 on the Thur with 2 bogies...easily could have been a 58 or lower.
