    As a Tour Pro, I just went round in 85.

    The leader is 55!!!

    That is IMPOSSIBLE with well guarded greens.

    It's the same for all the other courses. These 'other' figures are rigged. Logic would say so.

    Unless of course you believe in magic!

    But of course this is America.

    It's impossible with starter clubs. Having said that I've been on here a while and never got near a 55. Some people reach a level where they struggle so they just start again from the easier tees.

    The leader in Tour Pro is Level 93 with good clubs and you show the starter clubs. 30 stroke difference isn't that hard to understand with the equipment from the short tees.

    It's also Bethpage, the single easiest course in this game

     

    I'm more worried about forecasting hurricanes these days and dont play every day (my way of dealing with my inconsistent play... taking breaks of several days if not weeks at a time), yet could still put up a 53 and feel like I left 1 or 2 on the course.

     

    Not much defense to the greens and then holes like 15, the ball feeds down to that front hole location

    It's not impossible if you think about it.

     

    You are a L92 Tour pro with starter gear with 732 ranked rounds and no Alt shot or Matchplay rounds.

    The tour pro that shot 55  is L93   with near best equipment  317 ranked rounds, 1585 Alt shot games and 62 Match play matches.  With his equipment alone from the Tour Pro tees, I'd say his 55 is a bit weak at BPB with the gear he has and the tee box advantage.

    Just my opinion though.

    No. it's not impossible. Currently i stand at 56 (have done it twice only the second time did not registered the score). Of course, this does not mean anything because everything is decided on a single second round. Funny thing is, that many players are very suspicious even when you play against them. The other day palying on St. Andrews had a 99fts putt stopped 5 inches from the hole. Then, the other player started calling me names, a cheater and how impossible to do this putt having only 6 months on wgt. When i asked him: ''Well stupid one...if i'd cheat why not sinking it? Why leave it there?'' Well, don't care to hustle, don't care to be a scroundler, only care to play well, hf and make some friends. One last thing...is there someone to explain this whole cheat story to put an end of this? Some say you have to use the consoles, some say there are codes...i sick and tired all of these nonsense. I play because i like it and loosing makes part of the game. Whoever can't understand these simple concepts, wants to win by all cost and means, get the hell out and stop bugging us with bs...
