    7th hole par 3, right rear pin. I am even with the pin 16 feet to the left. I had the speed down pretty good by now, but I lipped this putt out. It comes out of the cup on the downhill side and just catches the hill and rollllllllllllllssssssssss all the way to the bottom of the green. Now I have a 60 foot putt 3 ft uphill lol.  I was lucky to get a bogey because my 60 ft putt was way to hard and way past, but luckily it rolled back down to pin for an easy tap in lol . Started out with a Double on 1 and Bog on 2. Was happy to end up with a 67 though. Good fun and challenge. Would be nice if you could put this in Stroke Play Tournaments under another Category possibly. You could call it "The Whacky Tournaments". lol

    I 4 putted the 7th hole par 3 otherwise it went ok though I think I played too conservative. Should have gone for more pins instead of trying to play the odds to create only uphill putts. Funniest thing was I left 2 birdie putts short . Didn't think that would be possible with the green speed on warp.
    I'm really looking to the Uneven Lie rounds for some action. I just wish the super fast and dead slow green speeds were split between the flatland and UL rounds. We have only fast on flatlands and slow on UL. This thing could have been harder. ;)

    Wow! That was so much FUN! I loved it. Thank you, thank you, thank you WGT!

    A set-up that requires so much course strategy is a wonderful challenge. Leaving oneself above the hole really does mean the risk of putting off the green, so it adds an enormous element of thinking to the game, which is great.

    I somehow managed 10 birdies (when the approaches were close enough... longest putt made 7.6ft according to the stats, but also had this beauty after having rolled back off the green on #2 tee shot!). Sadly I threw 4 bogies into the mix... on #4 I thought I'd played a pretty good distance bunker escape but oh no... it caught a slope and rolled all the way back... #14 I had hoped for a roll-back when landing long but it somehow stuck, and my 6 foot power putt from 22 feet went right off the green, lol!

    This was my favorite shot of the round, tee shot on #13 played long... for a moment I thought it was a HIO, and then I started fearing it would roll off the green instead. And my last hole approach was a nice bit of luck too... gives a great indication of just how fast we're talking about!

    Full details here for anyone that's interested: 65 for me!

    (Only criticism: the timing of the rounds will make it challenging to play over the Christmas period... I'm not sure if I'll be able to complete, but I've sure appreciated the chance to play this round. Thanks!)

    Edit: Yes, I agree with Cerino too. Splitting up the super-fast, super-slow, with Unevens would have been nice.
