I finally do not see the familiar names on top of the Tour Legend leader-board!!!, to me this is a good sign, either they find UL silly, they think it is too difficult to score low 50's as they
Sorry Eric.... this comment is a bit unfair.
UL is a good variation to the game. I don't want it to be standard.
No Offence, my good friend.... I think the UL has made the game harder for you to play, which has caused your enjoyment.... which is great, don't get me wrong :)
For people like me who is still trying to get those low 50's and basically struggling to break 60... UL, if made standard will be a nitemare and not really fun anymore.
I would luv to have an Ave of 55 or less :)

Hey Roger m8, UL is almost unpredictable because you do not know exactly where you are going to land on fairway (tho you still can aim to an specific place on the fairway), with UL you can be unlucky and during an 18 hole tourne you can land many times in sloppy fairways... but you can also be lucky and land on easy flat fairway spots.
Under UL this conditions, you a "normal" player have better chances to beat any top player score. You do not have the same chances on even lies, those guys will always be ahead of you.
Even lies is just too predictable, very easy game as long as you hit the ding or very close, you master the ding, length, wind and bs, you are a top player trying to make as many birds or eagles in one round, You can master those game factors in UL too, but the unpredictable landing would be very important for you to score great or simply bad.
Hope I make myself clear Roger.

Great idea the tourne this guys are organizing, wish I had to time to join them, I am sure it is very challenging.
I have been avg 54 before and find it very boring trying to keep my pretty avg.... it simply gives me much more fun and challenge to have a 65-70 on UL with tough conditions then to score a 54-53 on even lies from ladies tees and bouncing my ball on the cliff for an easy eagle or even doublet eagle.
LOL, perhaps we simply are here for different reasons Roger.
Cheers m8, Eric
