    most frustrating when ya 6 putt from the same spot. Tee shot 10 ft left on 13 and take a 7. Had the exact same putt 3 times and it did different things on all 3 lol. Wicked eagle putt on 17, 5 grids and late click.

    Had green speed figured out pretty early. Until they changed on the back for downhill. Still don't understand how a 6 ft putt breaks almost 3 grids but guess its just a game. Good luck all and stay sane.

    By the way, that's an East Coaster at the top of the leaderboard.  Nice showing, Spammage!

    That stopped me entering at all.  I can usually get a round in every day but there are times when real life gets in the way and 24 hour rounds are really cutting it a bit fine.

    If you could make the next one 48 hour rounds Icon that would be very much appreciated.

    I liked those greens for some reason. If I hadn't had a nightmare start could have gone lower. Hit the tree on my first drive, thought I'd hit it perfect, had to punch to 220 and then nailed the approach. had about a 10 ft putt, hit it and it absolutely flew. Hit the back of the cup and went 10 ft past. I thought wtf kind of speed is this before I realised I'd used the wrong scale. Then hit the pin on 3 right in the middle so it bounced straight back up the side of the bunker with a no hope chip. After that went well.

    crazy but loving it - obvious it is kind of weird if you have a more or less uphill putt and you get withing 1ft of the whole and the ball rolls slowly back rather far away - if possible that would be great to fix - all the rest is just great as it makes you bogey or worse if you do not play well - i missed fairways - did not have control of my distance into the green and therefore ended up in bad spots, resulting in being 9 over real early in the round - somehow I got into the round on the back round with a couple real good pars and then birdied the last 4 holes (and every single bridie felt real real good.

    Great shooting everybody who is under par 

     

    Thank you Icon for the experience

    Cheers
