Ty Mo,
difference is, then the divisor was 50, now it's 500. What then was a .5 drop is a .05 drop now. There will even come the time when a change needs two good rounds :)
OTOH, I don't see why you should be disappointed when shooting a 27!?! Is TL the only benefit of this game? (and what will motivate you once you're there?)
You might decide to enjoy the courses, enjoy the company, enjoy your shots, your birds and eagles, even enjoy the views - I certainly would not play this game w/out the beautiful pictures, and there are new ones every day!
On real golf courses I say to beginners, "forget about Par". To you I say:
Forget about Tour Legend, at least for a while!
