renniw52:You lose those xp strokes
Incorrect, you still get points for every stroke even if you quit...
I
do it all the time, but not to protect a avg., if I post a 28 in a
unlimited weekly and I know I wont beat that score I quit the round,
give one or two more attempts and if I don't beat it I do something
else...you look at it as wasting ball life, I look at it as saving ball
life by not wasting it chasing a bad round....everyone looks at it
differently.
when I practice I play unlimiteds, play #1 #2 #3
then start over, then 1 2 3 4, then 1 2 3 4 5 etc....regardless of score
I start over because I have nothing to gain by getting more XP points
and can't tier up, don't even care about avg...
he!!, I never
played Cabo at all, won't pay 40 credits, noticed I only needed a few
eagles to get the diamond award, so I went to Cabo front 9...even though
I did notice my average lowering, I didn't care! If I got to # 8 at -7 I
quit because I wanted eagles,,,on the other hand if I got my eagles on 2
3 4, I usually ended up parring 2-3 of the last 3 holes LOL...while
Cabo does lower your scoring avg and gives you a shot at 3 eagles a
round, it totally jacks up your 1 putt % so it has disadvantages too..
When
I started here I played 18 at CCC, BPB, Oak, KW, and STA every single
day...now I pick a 9 side on each course and play them over and over
trying to figure every course out again but better this time...then I
plan on focusing on match play...as long as I see Cadav/Shelby and Jtorg
and a few others in the top 5 i see no reason to tackle the big
tournaments as I'm not as good as Mags and I don't want to cheat like a few others do, not might do, DO!
There are a lot of ways to have
fun here, locking us into a round eliminates the best way to learn a
course and get points IMO, and learning the courses is the only way to
reach that elite level...I have rounds that I play like Magnets does,
the only difference is he follows with another great round and I might
play like a maggot instead of Mr Magnets...
