Well , my boat got a hole in it !!! the 8th and 11th hole at whispering whatever that course was ... DAMN .... was glad to walk off 4 over ... it was looking to be worse ... and with the remaining 4 courses ... it is almost a given that I will need to buy stock in " Flex Seal/Flex Shot" .... Oh ... PS ... the stuff works! I hope it can fix my golf game ...

Ugh, Copper Creek bit me in the ass. 7 at 12 didn't help. I got to say the number of sub 100% shots I had here was a bit alarming.

Started off -5 for the first 10 and just leveled out, playing conservatively, and it shows, ok with how I am playing accept for those 4 bogies, just gave those shots away.
Got away from Copper with -2 was hoping for -4, but that's what makes this game fun!

Just played my first round and was ridiculously nervous for what's ultimately just a game!! Never hit so many bad drives, most of which found bunkers but nothing too bad thankfully. In the end I managed my best ever at Mt Yeti, a -8.
I need a stiff drink before round 2!!

Had a tough yardage on an approach at Whispering River. My ball went in the water and I was forced to tin cup the shot, tried to hit the ball further but this time I had one of those random 92%'ers. Water again, this time I was allowed a drop?! Both balls cleared the water hazard, clearly landing in the rough but bouncing back in the water. The lack of proper rules in the game make me boiling mad. If I hit a bad shot, fine, I accept that, but force me to take stroke AND distance...
Anyways, that's obviously a fault of the game, not the tour, but it led to a triple bogey which contributed to my shooting a +2 at Whispering River.

As I have said in the past this will cause mass exodus from this game when PP comes out and has everything done right HB has their head in their bag for some reason on points such as this.
I feel for you and agree with you, this will not bode well for anyone!

Very similar to what happened to me at Cooper except I was put back on the tee for both shots and ended up with a quad.

Agreed, apparently a lame-arse handicap system is more important than a golf game that actually adheres to the rules of golf, when you are actually playing golf ..........

I know the hazard rules have been discussed since the first open beta and still nothing has been done besides the quote I'm getting sick of "it's on our list" not to mention the wind effect and putting problems, no worries though the "community demanded" handicap system is here! What a joke, someone needs to sit these guys down and give them a serious lesson on priorities.
