How can sub 30's be possible?

  I know many question those sub 30 scores. They have to cheat..There is no way they can shoot that well... ok.. I'll post a video of me playing Cabo. Risked being metered using another program, and made a couple of mistakes, even a lipout, landed on bunker, pulled and pushed some shots and landed farther than I expected, yet managed a decent 30 round. With a bit of more luck and commitment I would have shot under 30. Are they cheating?

  I only started playing Cabo Ready goes this month and yet I manage to score well, so those that question it.. watch the video... Still think it is impossible? The video was edited, cutting some parts to fit around 15 minutes for youtube.

  If you can putt well sub 30's are not impossible. Even me as poorly as I putt have had a few 28's 29's and 30s'. True most of those were on St. Andrews as a TM but I have had a few sub 30's since making Legend. I'm still trying for and hoping for  sub 60 round. I have had 3 60's and 2 of those 60's had 1 3 putt bogey. If I could learn to putt better I would been a much better player.

  Hell even I have few sub 30's. Very few, but I have some. It's the mid 20's and low 50's that I question. All birdies with a few eagles thrown in just seems very hard to believe. I am not questioning any of the top players abilities, I am questioning the performance of the game hole after hole. I have yet to see an entire round play totally flawless.

  Still can't believe ppl question a 30, which is after all, pretty average going...

  Had 4 rounds tonight..59, 29, 30 and 57 and I'm nowhere near the top 30% of legends...and sorry Renn, but a 26 three days ago too.

  A couple of guys I play with can't remember when they last shot over 29..!! :-))

  Just as e1 always says, understand courses, wind, putting, then practice, practice and......

  Edit: Just noticed you're a T/ Legend !! You must have tons of sub 30's, a bizarre statement from someone who obviously averaged sub 60 as a Legend.

  I don't often go sub 60 or 30 but have done it a few times. Shot 29 for Olympic back nine only today. It is possible and, if you are that good, possible to do it all the time although out of my league.

  People that learn the game and know the right shot to play every time they hit the ball , they will shoot sub 30's consistently , it is really all about choosing the right shot and landing the ball on the right part of the green .

  LOL

  I think everyone missed the op's point..

  All these folks that say it ISN'T possible without cheating, he is trying to show how VERY possible it is even with the mistakes he made, either that or I can no longer read lol
