Well first round done in 13-17 Mph wind and finished with a 74 (+2). Not too bad but was on course for at least -1 till I blew up on the 15th and 16th dropping 3 shots Grrrrr!!!

+54 total. That's just awful. Think of the positives, if you're on the Champions Tour you can't get relegated and the only way is up. All true. It is probably the best place for me.

And there's no cut on The Champion's Tour. Play for fun, and against yourself. Play against your last tournament score. If you can best it by even 1 stroke you're improving. Golf is the one sport where you can't control what the other person is doing. If they are playing lights out golf the chances are high they are going to win. So play against yourself. You can control what happens there. Thanks.. Thing is I probably drove the ball better than I ever have. Damn putting, and chipping..

Guess I'll get started tonight but seeing all the huge scores put up is a little disheartening. I think it is safe to say, "Champions Tour, here I come!" I hear ya. I'm at -14 after 2 rounds and seeing that the top guys are -28. Makes ya wonder how you can compete with that. Reminds me of the guys that used to play Links 2000. I loved that game but people had it down to a literal mathematical science.

There is a difference in a golf course that is stern test of golf where par to slightly above par is great and a course that penalizes for every shot that is not hit with absolute perfection..... Copper Creek is that course where every shot has to be struck with absolute perfection or you are screwed... While I know we all had to play it, I don't feel that it will help separate the field in a fair assessment of who goes to what tour... I hope that whatever tour I make will not ever use that course...

I finished my complete Q-School right where I started....Even Par. A little disappointed, but most of my errors were preventable. I want to compliment the founders and administrators on initiating this concept and managing the details of making as pure of a simulation across all platforms. Great job. One question, primarily from a course design perspective, it seemed that the Q-School courses all displayed a relatively large elevation change on several holes. Not that I consider that a problem, just wonderimg if the drastic elevation change is a variable that is desirable for course review/approval? I have a wide variety of real life course experience, from mountain golf, flat land golf, and desert golf. I want to create the best, most realistic experience for each, while also satisfying the community. Again, thanks a ton for the concept and any feedback.

I'm having such issues with Copper Creek. 12 practice rounds and there is always something that is killing me. Agreed it is hard, but every round there are just little things that make me wonder WTF?? A shot that falls like 20 yrds shorter than I expect...Putts that are even that end up a foot short or with no break break 2 holes worth... I haven't seen this on other courses and i think i'm just going to suck it up and play it.
Okay played it and ended up with a +1 ... It was so buggy.
I was -5 heading in to the back nine loving life. Hit a shot on a par 3 I see it heading right to the green, game crashes. Go back in, and the shot is replayed but this time it is 40 yards into the water beyond the green. Hit my third shot within 8 feet. Slight 1" downhill put, hit the put and it is like i am putting 40' .. I'm in the water.. HOW? End up quadruple bogey on it. Get back to -1 on 15 and then the game glitches again. End up a double bogey.
Finally at the end it says I have a 73 or +1 and yet on one of the screens it says i'm EVEN par. Double checked the leaderboard and it is +1 73, but that one scorecard said Even 72. I'm not taking a chance and am listing it as a 73 but if I never have to play Copper Creek again, it will be too soon.

Lol, can we all agree that only people in the E to -9 range are allowed to say "I hope it's good enough"?
