    Had a nice game with Mark tonight.   This course is a *** with uneven lies and fast greens :).  Mark had a tuff time .. and my 3 bogeys in the last 4 holes didn't help.  

    Lou 68 .. Mark 75.   Here are all the screen shots.

    Back 9

    Oh dear, I didn't screen for cc affiliation! There could be collusion... (although it doesn't sound like that's your plan, lol!)

    Actually, MB, this is very funny, but I did want to double-check that you know this is NOT matchplay. Greg is just your playing partner, to validate play under the correct conditions. You're both playing for the best possible Strokeplay score so you can make the cut-line of 14 out of 26 for the first round.

    So, if you want to "collude" with each other, and share tips as you go, that's actually encouraged by Shiner... or if you just want to show your cc mate how the game should be played, you can do that too!

    Oh no Corwyn...he'll be so devastated by the smack down...he'll WD from the touney offering all sorts of excuses....

    FFS, I'd better give this course a run though in UEL soon, or those would be my whiney sayings;)

    Jeeez, i wish i could understand this guy.

    Anyway what do ya reckon is the cut off for the top 14, If ivietri can only do a 68 then if I hang on to Seb's shirt tails I should be alright.

    It's very hard to absorb advice on-course, but I hope he offers me some anyways.

    So far with only 4 players that have played the qualifying scores for the Virtual Open are so far from being realistic especially since the wind is the same and you folks are hitting from shorter tees.
