  nice tourney - thank you for setting it up.

  Greens are quite a challenge - there might be flat spots somewhere but I did not find them - well I found one flat spot on No5 - had a 7.5ft putt for bogey . was so happy that I maxed out on no6 then :-)

   

  Cheers

  Greens were not a problem..haha, well there were on those silly greens 5 & 6, rest were a few birds, pars & bogies.

  

  Great idea Typoon, but again. single play & less green speed at Merion & Olympic, same green speed for the rest of the other courses.

  Enjoyed, despite the 10 shots at hole 5 (hell, still can't figure out hot to make less than 10 shots).

  My best pitch at hole 5 here http://www.wgt.com/gameclient.aspx?view=showReplay&JSON=%257B%2522GUID%2522%253A%252227eafe37-791d-43db-ae82-a3e801443415%2522%252C%2522Brand%2522%253A%2522%2522%257D

  That was fun and even managed to get all the way around without a 10. Only thanks to a birdie flop in on 5 and another flop in on 15 to save par - 8 on 12 and 14 hurt the round but still could have been worse.

  Biggest thing was the meter, never used it and I do not think i managed one full shot, finger too twitchy to get much past 90%

  Will there be more to play?

  Well now I know what a tunnel feels like after a train rips through the middle of it and out the other side.

  Merion scares me at the best of times but I may now need therapy.

  Despite all that, it was good fun. Thanks for setting it up WGTyphoon, you sadistic barsteward.!

  Thanks Typhoon for setting it up. It made me realize just how utterly useless the 3-click meter is. Can't imagine using that thing against a timer! Being against the meter for swing is once thing but, being against it for both distance and swing is hopeless unless you got it slowed right down or have a super-fast trigger finger. Forgot to unequip too after starting another tournament (doh!). As a fan of long distance putting I liked the insane fast greens that chew up your ball and spit them back out. Made an eagle and several birdies but H5 and 6 all went a bit crazy (+8's), still trying to master the F18 before posting a respectable score.

  Thanks again. On a seperate note if people here like a challenge  I also have some putting challenges I set up for my club members...just PM me and I'll send the link.

  Like LOLserver, when I finally got the ball to stop 2 feet from the pin on the 5th without rolling all the way back off the green, I had run out of shots.

  Ended up with 4 birdies but barely managed to break 100.
