Will probably invite family and friends to the Midwest Classic in Overland Park, KS. I've got a brother in the KC area and its a short drive from St. Louis (Never been to a "Web.com" event, maybe will make this my first IRL).

Edit: Actually thought Web.com was a generic placeholder name so that the TGCTours.com folks didn't get sued, but its a real thing! They must have paid a FORTUNE for that domain name.

they are web developers based in Jacksonville, Florida that was founded in 1997, so I bet they paid significantly less for that domain back then and it's probably worth a heck of a lot more, now!

OldManGaming606: Some of us struggling putting on greens regardless of how slow or fast the greens are. Nov 30, 2024 17:54:15 GMT -5

meunier33: 15th hole at Dancing Nun has an error. The light rough above the water hazard is marked as part of the hazard instead of land. Nov 29, 2024 23:04:55 GMT -5

sandgroper: I can hear too 😂 Nov 29, 2024 20:10:23 GMT -5

Violinguy69: Hear hear Nov 27, 2024 15:54:24 GMT -5

bubbadave: Truthfully. Give me a 170 over a 135 any day. Nov 26, 2024 17:43:11 GMT -5

sroel908: And as someone who's rangered/scheduled hundreds of courses, trying out a wide range of conditions, I can say with certainty that green speeds do have an impact and definitely matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:48 GMT -5 *

sroel908: Green firmness is more about how the ball interacts with the putting surface when you hit an approach into it. A soft green is more receptive, and will allow more backspin than a firm one. A firm green will have less bite and more rollout. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:00 GMT -5

meunier33: I have seen 135 greens that putt like they are 170. Therefore, we can conclude that green speed does not matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:31:35 GMT -5

meunier33: Why isn't there a green firmness meter on the score bug? Green firmness matters much more than green speed. Nov 18, 2024 15:28:26 GMT -5

keyan: thanks Nov 17, 2024 18:40:12 GMT -5

meunier33: I still play this game like it was the game before 2K21. Up until this month I have never tried to change anything about how I play the game. It has made me worse trying to adapt also. Nov 13, 2024 15:23:56 GMT -5

OldManGaming606: The biggest swing adjustment and best for competitive golf IMO, was 2k21 and addition of tempo. Nov 13, 2024 7:31:02 GMT -5

Art Vandelay: each time the game has been issued (TGC, TGC2, TGC19, etc) the game play changes. Some more than others. You have to adapt. Or go away, like some have. Nov 12, 2024 20:16:52 GMT -5

Wutpa: I think a lot of people here have figured out what your problem is, and it's not what you think it is. Nov 12, 2024 15:23:34 GMT -5

meunier33: EG the best swing used to be hard and low and not a high swing like it is now. Nov 12, 2024 14:51:27 GMT -5

meunier33: Im finally figuring out what my problem is though. I play the game like it used to work 4 or 6 years ago and I have trouble adjusting to how it now plays Nov 12, 2024 14:49:57 GMT -5
