  I haven't found anything obvious, but then again I'm not known for my Sherlock Holmes like abilities.

  Hi

  the only fix that you guys may notice is the waving flag (if you have that set in options). The rest was on the back-end.

  I logged in today and immediately had a horrible feeling that my back end had been fiddled with through the night.

  I don't know about that Icon.

  The tourney speed greens are acting more like championship greens!!!! Well maybe not that fast, but they have speeded up. I have had to alter my putting by about 3 ft to accommodate it.  Played St Georges as my first game of the day in a multi player game in scored mode and the balls were flying by on the greens. They weren't that fast yesterday when I played the same course under the same conditions!!!!!

   Any idea.....

  Waited and played 9 at Kiawah after the downtime.  Didn't notice much difference.  Was hoping to see some new equiptment.  Did I miss something?

  You maybe didn't notice it.  I believe this came last week.  My putting formulas have resulted in the ball acting like we are putting on the moon.

  20ft putt, 2 inches down, tourney greens, hit with 68.4% power (roughly) and the ball goes rolling by 8 feet....

  Someone mentioned Tourney Greens are different speeds between Master, Tour Master, and Legend, and depend on who created the tourney I'm competing in.  However, I haven't really found this confirmed anywhere.

  St. Georges does not water the greens on Wednesdays...so...that may account for it.  I'll exchange the watering schedules to all of the courses for one of those lovely custom avatars.....by the way...wonder if they ever sold any of those?
