    Twice in one round I hit it into that %$#@.. But the guy at WGT who sit there in his comfortable chair pushing the VEM button while everyone standing around behind him laughs at me gave me a break.. I managed to shoot a low enough score to move back to the blue tees.. And now it's like I have to figure this crap out all over again.. I'm WGT Master Scott2mee saying.. Thank you and see you on the links..

    Thanks you Scott.. I'll get better as long as I continue to play..From day one I've always been able to get some help when I needed it.. Actually one of the best things about this game is how some of the players who have been here for a while are willing to share the knowledge.. I was givin sound advice that improved my game the day I got here.  And even though I goof aroumd a lot here at the WGT most of the members that know me see I do take it semi serious.. It is just a game.. But if it were gin rummy or checkers I'd still want to be competitive..Actually competition is great but I wanna win.. lol.. I'm WGT blah balh whatever.. see you on the links.. =)

    I sometimes try to give advice, even though I am not perfect, and make lots of mistakes too, whenever I can, I  try.. but next time I'll probably shut up in my games, since last time I gave some advice to my p about a club I used for long... and my p made a bad shot and the other player told him to ask "the expert" what he did wrong. That pissed me a lot.

    What I don't understand is why I started to play better and get lower scores as a Legend. I thought I was going to suck at first, but it was smooth. I had already played a lot of alternate games, most of them 18 holes. Most players don't play 18 holes, they can be 20 minutes there, searching for a game... and then search for another.. I have played thousands of 18 hole games, less lately, but that helped me understand the courses better. I don't fear any course either... I play them all and play good and bad, but mostly good at them all.

    I don't have a big repertoire of shots around the green, but know my clubs well, especially my wedges. I can be in a terrible lie and, whenever possible, save par or even make a bird... Wedges, short game, can save you lots of strokes. You can leave me in 40% rough around the green,and 90 percent of the time I will leave you less than 2-3 yds from the hole. The best advice is to play and make notes, written or mental of what works and what doesn't... play all courses, in and out.. maybe you won't be the best player but you will improve your game a lot. Even though all things don't work the same in all courses most things do, to a certain manner.
