None of the eagles are "easy", and in hole 2 it's actually pretty hard, so I'd rather rate it par 69. I don't think we'll see a sub-50 score (it's not a Tour Legend RG after all), but we may see 50 or 51.

The same 1000CR RG is available for TLs now also. Cabo 18 with low winds from Hack Tees - but on Championship Greens. I totally gacked up 1 and three putted for bogey and lipped two other putts from less than 4 feet (just got careless and didn't play any break) and still shot a 53. I'm guessing a 49 will be had.

Just happened in the most recent TL Cabo ...

Congrats to Courtney01!!

With all the great players here. I can see a 48 coming in that RG. I shot a 50 in that same RG and missed two makeable eagle putts.

Fun that RG is.

Great Score by Courtney01, Congrats....

I shot a 56 in that comp.... 3 putted(ugh) the #2 for par and eagled the other 3 Par5's... I also par'd a couple holes too... Those low score are gettable (for the people thinking otherwise)

I think this Ready Go... with the same Tee's and conditions, should be 100cr or 50cr.... heaps of fun in fun conditions.... and not donating to the Rich and Famous.... saying that, I mean no offence to the great Players of the game :)

Well my 56 which made me 600C in the Legend one would have lost me 500 in the TL one!

Unfortunately my average is hurtling down a bit fast due to this RG!

Yeah it's really mean (and nonsensical in a way) for people's average... What a devilish way for WGT to get rid of upper Legends :)

I disagree that the 250 yd one is a par 3 - an eagle is possible there but very difficult, at least for Legends. :)

Or even hole 2, where the second shot is over 200 but has to carry a high bunker, is very difficult to eagle (at least with the Bladez) and the green is ugly from certain sides that can easily lead to par (as it did for me as well during the second game...)

Yeah I agree with you on 2. I've now 3 putted that hole twice in 3 rounds! Leaving it right and high is a nightmare.

I've had a 54 at Cabo; I just tend to go to pieces when the stakes are high! :p

Ironically, it's me who's having this problem. Or actually I'm not very sensitive to stakes, but I just can't stand the "ding-or-die" games. When fewer birdies or even eagles are a must (e.g. from the tips or high wind), I actually make more of them...

Hope to see other kinds of high stakes RGs later, or even an UL one for Legends...

If you hadn't holed it, it would probably have been a par, as the ball was moving pretty fast :) So I wouldn't take it as an example how to play #2 ;)

In my first game I hit the flag in my approach shot and was a few inches away from albatross :)

How to play Cabo #8 ;)
