    togemag (will need to find another player/marker; please post available times today)

    I'm seeing Dale green on and off and will try to invite him to a game so he get's his round played if he wants to.

    Corwyn:

    CerinoDevoti:
    Neil was 17 feet approach on the 12th hole. I wasn't sure if that's in the running so I took a screen pic anyway

    Thanks for marking Cerino!

    I've been hoping to get the time to do a proper Leaderboard recap, but have just been slammed. Tomorrow...

    Meantime, here is the status on the RSG Special Prizes. Note that I've added highlights to the cells for the front-runners in each category on the Leaderboard: (scroll all the way to the right)

    Longest putt made at RSG (ColumbusStorm leads with a staggering 58.7 foot putt)

    Greatest improvement relative to par from R1 to R2 (current leader is BogieZed with 12 strokes better, who just pipped OeJ's 11 stroke improvement)

    Any Eagle at RSG: (none so far, I believe...)

    CTTH competition at #12: Post screenshot showing closest-to-the-hole location after your 2nd shot on this hole, and replay links would be great too. (oneeyedjohn in the lead with 6.6ft)

    Longest drive hit at RSG(JayO92 had a 257.21 yard drive on #7)

    Just a reminder that these prizes are only to be awarded to players who complete all four rounds, so if any remaining players come close it still might be worthwhile to preserve some evidence in the event that the leader can't fulfill his duties.

     

    JayO92:

    Tbh, I'm not sure if I even want a sleeve of premium balls as a prize if I win one.  It would take me a couple of rounds to get used to the added distance and spin, and they would nearly be gone by the time I did get used to them anyway... and then it's back to the starters since I can't afford to be constantly buying balls for this game.

    I wish that premium balls didn't even exist in this game... they make it too easy for the top players in this game to throw darts at every green, and turn an already somewhat expensive game into an obscenely expensive one, unless you can win credits from ready-go's on a regular basis (made difficult due to WGT's stupid 20% commission)

    We can do multiple sleeves of inexpensive balls instead, and If you win multiple prizes, we could convert balls into durable gear.

    Corwyn:

    Along with the green speed, it would be great to get your Approach tab stats, for the GIR and Ave. Distance to Pin standings.

     

    I hope Matt took a screen shot of the green speed, I've posted the Approach tab stats...sorry for that bad job ;)

    For the lie from that bunker, my stupid finger made this lol Was a pretty downhill shot!

    Got the front nine in with Hyena64( Great fun Hyena...Thanks!!) Shot +2 Here's some screen shots:

     

    I made a long putt (50+) and went to the share page, after that the "share" button stayed on the screen....

    Anyway, I hope to find a mark this evening to get the back nine in...Thanks

    hyena64:

    I forgot to mention "the putt".  Gary, I remember it being at least a 50 footer, but the replay only shows it in yards & shows 11yds.  I know it was longer than 33 feet.  

    Not sure if it beat the long putt of the round (58.7ft) or not, but it had to be close.

    I've never seen a replay show a putt in yards like that to the best of my memory.  Lord knows I haven't had any of my own worth saving, but I've seen others!

    I remember it was that long because mine was right next to yours.  Seems like it was around 58.

    Yeh, I sent the replay to myself but it is somehow confused with one I had on oakmont in round 1... I can't find the replay but the card above says it was 53.9 feet...lucky lucky lucky putt..Thanks again for the Mark and sorry Togemag...once again I'm traveling and I'm posting all of this from a tablet...Thanks again everyone...

    My marking time for the day has come to an end. I played with Dale to get his RSG round completed. I have pics but will post either later or if Dale doesn't have them.

      Seemorehair and I played our 2nd round game yesterday. I was busy after that, so just getting around to posting the results until now.

      It was a tough go around for both of us again, but I manage to better my 1st round by a bit. Thanks for the Games Tom, and all the best for the final rounds.

    Tough It Out, not even started to explain what happen to me and CD. Kept getting knocked off, CD has some of my scorecard of the first 9. Then we had to get the back 9 in, which I have.

    I want to say this about CD and Corwyn, they both have taken the time to organize this Tourney. But have also help me with getting my games in & posting pics, both of them went a step or five more to help.

    Thanks: Dale

    OK I finally got here (Dundee)

    Thanks to Corwin and Cerino for helping me get RSG played.

    Sorry to Jman that we couldn't get a round played together.

    And I have taken all screenshots needed......but they are still in my PC (I'm on my laptop in the hotel room) and I haven't uploaded them to Photobucket yet, so I will post any needed when I get home at the weekend.

    I'm happyish with my score considering the mayhem of this week, but having made some birdies and getting favourable winds, I think I could have shot under par if I had manged to get some proper practice in.

    But hey ho, it's all good fun.

    Hopefully this week will be a little more "normal" and I can get some rounds played.........hotel WIFI permitting.
