  What brilliant fun this is.

  I used the G12-S and it really is a treat for me to be in amongst some of the Big Guns, whose scores I can only usually admire from afar (usually a long way afar too)

  Normal - 38

  UEL - 41

  Fast - 43

  Total 122

  The reaching of the fairways did not seem to much of an issue, but I realise that some courses would be a bit more "tricky" that way. But even so, this makes it more about the player than what is in the bag.

  Thanks again for the set-up and ready for the next one

  That was tough, the Tour S ball helped a bit I think, not sure where they came from, but found 3 in my bag.

  Only one legitimate birdie op on the short par 4, but missed the 15 footer, only 2, maybe 3 GIRs.

  First I want to apologize for being such wimp.  I quit the crazy greens after, I think, 7 holes.  I kind of lost track but I think I was +13 at that point.  It was just too frustrating and too late at night to even finish.

  But I did play the others, and I went hardcore using "the rock" for my ball.

  UEL  -  41  (not too bad for very rarely playing UEL)

  Normal  -  35

  These conditions sure do make it interesting.

  This is from the 'normal' tournament page:

  Required Wedges: WGT Starter Sand Wedge, WGT Starter Pitching Wedge, WGT Starter Lob Wedge

   

  I have 2 'starter' wedges, no pitching wedge - any chance of rectifying that situation, Mr. Shoe/Icon?

  Regards,

  Johnny.

  Pitching wedge is part of your iron set Johnny

  The club requirements show up a little funky.  Pitching wedge in required wedges even though it is already in your Iron set.  Doesn't really effect anything but it is listed to get fixed.

  Hi Shoe,

  Really my own fault with the wedge mix up as I posted earlier in response to Tom(BD1).

  My biggest problem seems to be forgetting the default minimum scale is 30ft with the starter putter and not my norm 15.....  the number of 'tap in' putts that have flew miles past  is really quite hysterical painful.

  :(
