Re: Closest to the hole request

  Hi, I have a suggestion for a new form of closest-to-the-hole.

  When there is unlimited play on CTTH tournaments you see after each round your potential best score. Why not have a tournament type where this is the final score? At least I am having troubles making it through 9 holes with no bad hole. So for me it would be a fun way to climb higher in the CTTH tournaments. 

  Let me know what you think.

  That's one of the worst ideas I've ever heard.

  Huh?  So under this proposed format I enter a Edgewood CTTH, play my nine holes, and then my score for the tourney is my current 18.3 feet potential best?  That would be like a weekly or monthly tournament title going to the person with the best ever score on that course. Could not agree with Doodles more.

  The OP has been here a long time, he knows what he's talking about!  I mean, 21 days and 187 friends already.

  It's a great idea for justifying sandbagging.

  Whats so terrible about this idea? If you start from scratch on a course in a CTTH game I dont see the problem?? 

  You don't have to act like idiots just becuase you don't like an idea. 

  At least I think its a good idea to count the best score you get from each hole after multiple rounds. There are lots of real golfcompetitions having this system, play like 10 rounds and see what score you get if you count the lowest score for each hole. It's very fun.

  No no you get me wrong. I didnt know how that potential best worked, thought it was only for that specific tournament. I meen start the potiential best from scratch when enter this new type of tournament, and the closest you had to hole before it doesnt matter. 

  Might be my bad english screwing it up lol

  I see what you mean..

   

  I/e set up a i/e a 5 round CTTH competition and only the best scores per hole are used for final score.

  Has merit.
