I ran the course for practice and it was low single digits winds. Then the speed run starts and it's well into the double digits for some holes.

My goal was to go as fast as I've ever gone before. Bonus if I shoot well. I timed myself at about 15:30 (minute digital clock only) at 7 under. Pretty content with the time and the score on the conditions.

Unfortunately, I don't think my time is going to count. As I was half way though my run, I saw a message from steam that it is trying to connect to the Internet. What a bummer! Always next week I suppose.

I quit halfway through my round. Just couldn't be asked.

I can tell straight away from practice on the course if i will do well and again, this course just isn't for me (for speed golf)

[MrSourNinja]

-10 for me with a mean breaker on the last that didn't turn and lipped out. Oh what could have been....

[Mark (Kram)]

-5 in approx 18:50, I played on the PS4 this week. I started well and was an average under a min per hole for the first 10h, but made mistakes on #11 and #12 where I lost time.

[fuzion]

Only 9 hours left to play this week as of time of writing!

Enjoyed the course, but the wind was not my friend this week. A slow and bad round once again for another likely middling finish. Looks like I'll have to wait until next week to try to tie Daniel again.

Thought I saw you at -14? Or was that a practice round?

Yeah, that was practice, unfortunately.

I have been focusing way more on playing well on the other tours which really is my priority at the moment.

Sorry to hear that, although I was considering giving up on speed golf when I saw that score pop up

[fuzion]

Results are up! Slightly better turn out this week, let's get speed golf back on the up. Post course suggestions in a thread if have them!

[canthitstraight]

Nice turn out! Horrible time!

[Nemecyst]

Damn 20sec off. I really need to start playing practice rounds on these courses before I try for a speed round lol.
