jimbean346:Consistency in handling the rough shots is the key to being a winner or an also-ran.
yeah..yeah..I knew before striking a ball i had no chance of EVER doing well in the tournament anyway (& good luck to those who do well) ...front 9 FULL of these so called "rough" shots, but back 9 everything normal, birdie every hole, bar 1. The difference was astonishing. These high stake prizes, a small pool of players will get "limited" deviation the usual suspects & WGT favourites and the winners will come from these. None of this having to put up with "rough" shots, 80% of their shots will act normally, compared to 20% myself and others who are not in the winning pool have to put up with. Not complaining, i dont really give a to55 about it because its WGT's game and they can give their prizes to who ever they want, its not a fair shot for all of us, most of us are handicapped. You lot can abuse the post all you like but when a front 9 reacts so different in gameplay and precision to the back it was more amusing than anything else, it made me finish with a laugh, and look forward to seeing the 55's or 56's posted from the rounds from the usual who their clubs ALWAYS have 4.5 precision compared to the 1 the majority of us put up with. Deviation they call it, "score limitation" is what i witness.
(oh, by the way, i too got 18 mph HEADWIND on 1, giving me no chance to birdie, and the 14 mph wind on #2 had no effect and landed me way off hole, and the 4 foot put for par acted like a slice not a dinger.bla.bla.bla i could go on and on about them Jim, but i'm done with bothering the forums. I've got my conclusion about the game, and no round in hell can make me change my opinion. Should go back to the poker sites, the sit & go's there are no different.LOLOLOL)
