  I've seen quite a few posts on the subject and never seem to find an answer from WGT.  The notebook is nice, and I am sure we can track things ourselves here.  But the game already keeps track of which holes a Hole-in-One or Hit-the-Stick has been achieved.  Surely, there is some way that WGT could make that information available to the player.

  Where does the game do that? As far as I'm aware the game only keeps a running total, not specifics on which holes.

  The game has to internally keep a hit the stick and hole in one stat for each hole  since there are course awards for hitting every stick and getting HIO's on all the different par 3, except of course the odd HIO award for the best of par5, not sure how thats happening, unless it has been removed

  Thanks. I had only looked at the Master Your Game awards for HIO and HTF.

  hi

  unfortunately, it doesn't say what flag sticks you hit or holes you holed out until you actually complete the task. it took me 6 month to hit all flags on sta and seems I kept missing one all the time thinking I did it.  alas it'll be a nice surprise when you do :)

  That is my point and my suggestion.  Since the game does have to track it in order to say you have completed it, why not display what the game already knows?

  So either the game merely keeps a running total, which doesn't jive with the award descriptions...  Or else wgt doesn't want us to know which ones, for some reason.  And maybe it's a good reason.

  However, it would be nice to at least know how many (not which ones) we have already gotten.  THAT number MUST be retained, and could be displayed.  I can't see any reason to keep that number secret?  I'm a numbers guy : I NEED THE NUMBERS!!!! :-D

  Hi

  I agree with both. I'd like to see what pins I need to hit as well... I am not sure if it'll happen but I am ever hopeful :)

  yes a nice surprise when it happens. Like this morning at Oakmont.  Now just to figure out how it didn't go in.
