Honestly, I'm pretty stunned by the fact that this tour still has 80+ players a week with TGC being almost replaced by TGC2. This is awesome... although it means more work for my guys doing all the scoring stuff! Great job, boys!  I love this event and look forward to it every week. 😎 |

Played Red Brick Road with the man himself Clint Kelso last week, it's a really nicely put together golf course. It'll be nice to play the 18th this time! Speaking of the man himself, I stopped half way round Palmerston Water last night. What happend Clint, did you let your wife play?  |

Imagine how busy it'll be with the expected influx of new players when TGC 2 hits. 100, maybe 150 weekly players wouldnt surprise. Great job as always fellas. |

Had another good one at the start of week 29. Promptly threw it away on that BEAST of a second course, but a couple of good rounds in the past few days is a nice feeling. I know Mr. Kuo had called out the PC guys for not being competitive, so I'm doing my best to not suck at least once ever 3 rounds. No promises, though...  |

Played week 30. Enjoyed all courses and was enjoying myself until I got to Clint's masterful looking torcher chamber. Nothing frustrates me more than a Kelso course. Lol.

Just played the newest RRCC. It's been a while since I've hit 40 under. With two firm courses here, I didn't think I could do much better than mid -30's, but I got lucky with back to back eagles on the second course.
-14
-15
-11
Red Brick Road was my only loss in the Elimination Tournament round robin this week, so I wanted some payback. I'm pretty happy with the 11 under and no bogeys here.
Here are my lucky back to back eagles:

Third I believe is firm and 170's.
First I believe is firm and 140's.

Week 29, shot a reasonable -10 at Fire Grove and then a nice -8 at Palmerston Water, currently the best score on the Xbox. So, after 2 I'm one shot off the Xbox leader and 3 ahead of the Jeter  Fire up Koufinisi Island full of confidence and ready for a shootout with Matt Medina, and proceed to go out in +1 37 . Came home in 29 but the damage was done. Nice shooting Matt by the way, should get you a solid finish |

Loved all the courses even though I have 6 strokes away on the 2nd one.

Am I the only person who see's stuff like this? I had assumed a general rule of thumb in course creation as it relates to pin selection was to avoid areas like these:  I ask this because I can't remember the last time that I've seen someone else post a screenshot of a pin for an event I've participated in, so I'm wondering if it's just a "me" problem. To be honest - even though I disagree with this pin positioning choice based on my own opinions - I'm not really bothered by it, because I've played so many camel-humped, side-hill, triple breaking putts in the last few months that it's just standard at this point (not speaking only/specifically to RRCC obviously). I'll either stick it to within 3 feet and make birdie or take my 2-put t......I hope When I started playing TGCT events last September, I thought that I had read a post about generally acceptable pin placements which precluded pins having yellow and/or red slopes anywhere near this close - I thought it was at least 1 or 2 full grids outside of the box centered on the hole. Have I made this up, just completely misunderstood this concept from the start...or am I missing something? Would love to know if others notice these things or if it's something specific to my gameplay somehow...thanks! |
