  Are  some people  playing a different game to me or are there cheats for the system ? I've just shot a horrible 80 on the Nation Pebble Beach 18 (lost it on the last 6-8 holes, a stupid shot and it all went wrong. It's back tees and uneven lies and the top of the leader board is 54, seriously. I play for my own enjoyment, I don't seek friends and I'm not into country clubs but am I alone in thinking these sort of scores make the game seem ridiculous ?

  Who cares? I play for fun although some of my scores make me wince it's only a bludy game. I shot a 69 yesterday and felt good about it yet the leader was on 58! So what?

                     I can assure you mate that it is indeed possible. Players like Fmags have been playing for a lot of years and put a lot into working out slopes, yardages etc. Keep plugging away and your scores will drop. I have been trying a bit of UL lately and it's like learning all over again.

  Yes, I only use Putt Pal, not too expensive clubs & balls. The fact that I tend to do better at Single Play & UL would probably explain things to an extent. Not really a thread I should have started with the advantage of hindsight. There are those that have different priorities than me, fair play to them.
