You know what Walds? I'm ok with playing hard courses. Not every single one out there, but from time to time they're ok. And now that on tours we won't have them.... I find it even more interesting. And not trying to piss anyone, just my two cents There's hard courses..and then there's absolute jokes. The 1st course this week falls in the latter category. Sorry if it offends the designer..honesty can be harsh sometimes. I calls 'em as I sees 'em

Sorry if it offends the designer..honesty can be harsh sometimes. I calls 'em as I sees 'em I won't say that you are wrong about the course, because you are not. I mean, that course is extreme, and yes, borderline to unrealistic and cruel. But what I like about it is the fact that it is a complete change of pace. I don't want that type of courses week in and week out in every single competition, but don't care having them in this type of competitions from time to time. I mean in this type of competitions, as a scheduler I'd never use this type of course in a regular tournament, but in a super special tournament, I could fit it (have you tried the Ryder Cup version of midnight sun? do it). It is something like having the chance to play Augusta the way it plays for the masters. For anyone of us mere mortals, that must be a nightmare. But hey, it's Augusta

The courses from now on will not be anything as difficult, like I said in my first ever post this is the first time I have ever run anything like this before and I'm still learning, I can't please everyone can I. I stepped up in the absence of Chris because it seemed to me everyone was enjoying it. i don't always have the time to test the courses out before I post them.

Are you going to finish this weeks courses or will I be giving the win away? I think he's done... Yeah looks that way, I'll try and get someone in to replace him.

I stepped up in the absence of Chris because it seemed to me everyone was enjoying it. i don't always have the time to test the courses out before I post them. I wouldn't worry about it bud, don't think there is a single person in here trying to criticize you - we all appreciate you taking the reins with Chris on his hiatus. That course was crazy, but like pablo said, it was kind of entertaining to play something as off-the-wall as that...it a weird kind of way haha. I can say this, it's the first time I've tried to putt the ball off of a green so I could then chip up to the hole rather than try the mile long, zig-zag putt to the top of a crowned pin position, only to completely fail (#17 I think? It was questionable if there was a "obstruction" to my putting line which would allow me to chip, so I decided to err on the side of caution. If you're on PC throw my ghost on to play that hole if you want a good laugh). I think the saying "couldn't hit the broad side of a barn" and/or "couldn't find the ocean if he jumped out of a boat" applies

What happens next season when we get a tough course? Just quit? Anyway this week I have chose easy courses for you 😀

I'm done. I said this in an earlier post. YES....give the win to my opponent. Don't worry about it mate, just do your best and it will be fine. I agree it was a tough course but I kinda like the variation so I welcome tough courses. It's not like it's a matter of life and death, you play and you have fun, believe me I've screwed up a number of times but I still keep playing.

Not played this round yet but know the first course and had a nightmare playing it last time. It's one of the worst designed courses I've played.
Everyone complains about courses so keep it up Waldini. I will be doing tourneys soon as well.

I don't mind playing tough challenging courses but there's way to much red and yellow with very little room to land and have a decent putt on those greens. I felt it was ridiculous and I'd rather not play a course and be miserable for 18 holes. Hey I admire people that can deal with courses like this and more power to them. There just not for me and I'd rather skip playing courses like that than playing and not enjoying the round. Not a big deal, I just prefer not too is all.

My only intention was to challenge you guys a little more than last week due to the high scores. But that wouldn't be the case every week. Like this week for instance it should be a lot more enjoyable to play.

You can't win waldini1985 if you gave us two target practice course people will complain. Why do think legend Loughrey quit. I haven't played yet... I might come back and slag you off but and its a granny size butt, you have the right to choose what ever course you want, I don't see anyone else setting tournaments up. ....wait two hours after my rounds, this post will be edited to the max! edit: I hate you waldini .
