Good for you, I personally think it is a great idea to do this if you have the time. Did you play the Tour event or just the course. That is a good score on the Thursday set up. Play the tour event if you have the time, good practice and gives you something to shoot for. Follow ghost balls to see what they do and how they play certain shots. Good luck to you. Haha I wish, that was for the tourney. Ya I think it's great practice if anything . I'm gunna start the replay of PGA season 1 and see how that goes anyway

Happy watcherseve everyone!
Small break from the ongoing debate regarding exemptions/reneging and a farm yard Chicken to get back to the golf!
Only 129 registered so far this week so I am presuming there will be a late surge of Lurkers coming out of lake on the short par 4 I stuck a ball in there this week overdrawing (hooking) a ball.
As it stands im in 11th and will probably finish 70th come Saturday after a mighty collapse!
Anyway enough about me -18 and better are all in the watcher safe zone with 48 watchers still to finish. So welcome to Web Rob Stone!
-17 97% a matter of when rather than if -16 90% will also easily make it -15 83% should also get in -14 65% usually I would say the percentage would lead to this been safe but with RD 2 been so much easier it could be dodgy -13 40% will be in and around the line -12 27% very doubtful -11 13% no hope -10 10% No Hope -9 2% NO HOPE!!!
Ill be on later for the lunch time update!
(I will try to be a bit more lively been up all night as my daughter has realised she can climb out of her cot and falling 3 foot isn't that far or sore!)

Hopefully I'll get my second round in today, but after the first round I'm not expecting to make the cut. Would be my first missed so far. Hope its not a trend.

I think you will be fine man, round 2 is really easy compared to the 1st round and you could easily go really low. I made a complete mess of round 2 though and had to settle for -7 but the amount of chances I missed it could have been -12 or -13 easily. I must now await the watchers to seal my fate on -13 as Moe has already pointed out to me

So a @ Moe Slorkman and canthitstraight inspired report for my first 2 rounds this week. After last weeks close but eventually unsuccessful cut attempt my chances of making the cut this week were around 50% with a chance of a Top 25 at 0.036% After practicing Thursday-Sunday and then seeing the scores posted this changed to - Cut - 30% and Top 25 0.00036% After a 2nd play on Thursday setup and -5 after 6, -6 after 10 or so this changed to - Cut - 80% and Top 25 1% It was time to start. I was playing well, nothing could go wrong. Ha ha!!! Round 1 Even after 6 was pretty wrong! 5 shots worse than my warm up. Bogey on 4 was agonising, short chip and then 2 putts. Cut chances - 10%, Top 25 0.000000000000000000001% -1 after 9 no changes to probability Same old same old, missed opportunities even though driving and GIR were good. 5 birdies in the next 7 holes came out of nowhere, I was actually enjoying the firm conditions. Most holes had plenty of run up. Cut chances - 60%, Top 25 0.1% I was -6 with two left, I had my eye on a par birdie finish. I bogied the 17th after missing the fairway. I did birdie the 18th. A 66 for -6. Cut chances - 50% Top 25 0.05% Round 2 Easier conditions, sights set on -8 or -9 -3 after 8. Solid but not good enough, again probably the easier holes on the course. Cut chances - 50%, Top 25 0.05% Now a run which included 2 chip ins, 8 birdies in a row. -11 after 16. Cut chances - 95%, Top 25 20% Two holes left to really leave my mark and put me in a great position for the weekend. 17th - 8-10 foot putt for 9 consecutive birdies. Missed by inches - Cut chances - 95%, Top 25 15% 18th - missed the fairway with one of my very few hooks/slices of the round. Could only mange a par, felt like a bogey - Cut chances 95%, Top 25 10% Making the cut is always my aim these days and so I was really happy to be able to put in a performance which has almost guaranteed that. Seeing the scores coming in can really dent your confidence and the -10s to -13s look impossible. However if you took my front 9 practice and back 9 round 1 I would have been -11. If I was consistent and lucky maybe I would have a round like that one day. With weekend play almost certain, I'll play these rounds tonight hoping to kick on to my first top 25 finish since 26/10/2015 10 tournaments ago. Still though my chances are only 10%!!!!!

This will be my first tournament since last February.
I played last week but didn't play my R2 in time and got disqualified. (Whoops)
Very good golf course, and I am a very lucky golfer. Ranked near the bottom in GIR, but I've been on a chip in run.
I haven't yet played R3 and R4, hopefully I can hit more greens and make a run.

Hope everyone's having a good tournament! I haven't been very active on the threads as of late because I recently got married and work has been very time consuming! Anyways, here's a little clip of my 3rd round. Hopefully this week's luck can get me a top 10!

Watcher of the Watchers Watchers Eve Late Lunchtime report. 1 single Lurker has surfaced from the depths of the lake and shown themselves a bit earlier than anticipated! Maybe he is an apprentice Lurker and hasn't quite got his head around the "Official Lurker Protocol" or maybe just an honest late register. Anyway -17 and better are all in the watcher safe zone with 45 watchers still to finish. Well done dh-nufc home safe by a mile! -16 93% up 3% were we have a Busch a Legg and a Pol -15 87% up 4% were an ever growing in frustration gavlaar124 resides -14 66% up 1% were we have Phil Crampton who finished top 5 last week if memory serves me correctly is currently sitting
-13 40% No Change I cant look past feng187 for the mention here. In an interview he simply said "Must Frustrating Tournament Ever" then something about introducing chicken motifs on the leaderboard! -12 26% Down 1% were we have a bunch of lads names aren't jumping out at me so next. -11 9% Down 4% We have Matthew on his own looking at a quick exit from this weeks comp -10 6% Down 4% currently 4 players sitting at this mark but the watchers will surely push them below the cutline before the day is out! -9 unfortunately haven' made it till the weekend.

@canthititstraight Yeah I have enough going on without calculating chances. I simply converted feelings at the time and make it like precise probabilities later!
