  One word, brutal! The first hole is a killer if you don't make your first putt from below the hole. It rolled back down six times on me. lol

  never mind, you did recommend starters tho, should  have used a normal ball then

  WGTdbloshoe:

  Starter ball was a request so you didn't lose a ball. Not a requirement to play the tournament.

  I am glad to hear the majority of the players are enjoying this.  So just some stats, roughly 100 players have entered and only 60% have finished the full 9 holes.... Ouch!  So to all that stuck it all the way through thank you!  And to those who didn't want to finish, some constructive feedback in welcome.  Were the greens to fast or did it have to do with other conditions?

  I guess the next one you sent me a link to would be to much for some folks. Now that was crazy, wind was just a ? and greens were like a parking lot. Managed a 30 but getting on the green was a feat in itself. I very much enjoyed this. I was not expecting the wind conditions at all.

   

   

  I played #2 with starter clubs and ball. Managed a 34. Loved every second of it.

  This is how the WGT game should be IMO. Sadistic. lol

  Can't get to it though have link..grrrr  ;)

  EDIT: Thx Shoe ^^...Damn that was FAST & Windy !

   Bogeyed 1st two holes, then got sort of a handle on the greens    ;-))

  Great fun though !!

  After 16 putts after two I surrendered purely to save hits on balls. Einstein's quote on the definition of insanity sprung to mind.

  I'd have played again using starters but couldn't as the event was obviously single play. Some pretty impressive scores posted - machine like almost.

  Link for the 2nd event forthcoming, Shoe?

  Thanks for hosting.

  Johnny.
