    The picture shows a driver, not the 3wd that Corwyn wants.

    And hybrid.

    Missed a 4-footer on 16 and then ended off with two bogies for a 73.  *grumble*  ;-)

    Let me know if you need better resolution on any of these Corwyn.  I used that crappy MS Paint program on my work comp...which I don't think gives a very clear picture.  I get much better resolution using Linux on my home comp, so can do that for you later if you need it?

    Cheers!

    Yes, Jeremy, I can (just) make out all those stats and have added your entry into the Stats Spreadsheet which should all be up-to-date. Do please check that I have it correct!

    @Johnny (WigerToods2010): Thank you for adding in that 3W pic from the final green!

    ----------------

    A reminder to all that this is the final day to post a R1 score. Tourney entries will close at midnight tonight WGT time (approx 14 hrs from now).

    And it's still not too late to add a sponsorship of a prize if you feel so moved. Donations are always welcome!

     

    P.S. Anyone know the story on the supposed Uneven Lies 100cr Bracket tourneys, which turn out to be neither 100cr (they're free!) nor UEL! I entered a few of them thinking I could get some RR UEL practice with starters but alas, it was not to be...

    :(

    Played well again.

    1 extra screen shot to show lob wedge in hand and sand wedge in lower left corner.

    #3 rolled a 3W onto front of green and 2 putted from 60+ ft.

    #4 approach was 40yds short of pin for a regulation 5.

    #6 3W approach ran over the green, left a tough pitch shot, missed 8ft par putt.

    #8 made 2.6ft bird putt

    #10 made 20ft bird putt

    #15 made 12ft bird putt

    #17 approach 21yds short. made 7.6ft "bird" putt to save par 4

    #18 made 13ft bird putt

    <placeholder for my R1, a level-par 72 with many missed putts and some dire scrambling... full report tomorrow>

    Edit: Here is my card and stats with hole-by-hole report following...

    In summary, some costly errors on approach, especially on #2, #11 & #15 all bogeys caused by poor course management and some hopeless scrambling. And I missed far too many makeable putts, including a really annoying 6 footer on the last, and an easy 4 footer on #6.

    Could easily have been 4-5 shots better with some smarter play and better putting...

    #1 19@130  234D >251 3W 2nd leaves >56 between clubs, didn't want big choke down on SW, so risked 1/2ts LW which landed in fringe and rolled up nicely to 1yd (9yds of roll) and sunk 4ft putt BIRDIE

    #2  17@330 D down left side >77 wow, total misjudgment on 2nd which seemed plenty of club with PW but not even close banged off bank and into deep rough!, opted for fullLW 85% to get out of 60-70 deep rough dinged and not too bad, 3yds below and just low on 10ft save attempt, darn! clumsy dropped shot BOGEY

    #3 17@130 D 211 >164 dinged 2nd and a little unlucky not to roll round after landing on green, just caught high rough and flop a little short 3yds and low on 8ft save attempt darn! BOGEY

    #4 13@12 D214 >184 tried 190fbs 98% but came up short and rolled into left fringe, very nice lag indeed through fringe to 2ft, 2ft save PAR

    #5  19@445 dinged 4i but way right good distance, slight push on 16ft putt and missed right PAR

    #6  17@7 goodD >210 couldn't reach with 3W 24 short, good flop to 1yd below, dinged 4 footer but read too much break into it, doh!  BOGEY

    #7 16@730 D 217 >304 caught downslope with 2nd to go 219 >85 left with nasty downhill lie, had to play long and hope for roll back which happened!  and nicely judged 10ft double-breaker downhill for excellent BIRDIE

    #8 18@415 good 3H to 2yds below but missed 7ft putt by a hair on high side PAR

    #9  16@830 >243 >78 choked 9i 3rd but came up just short of ridge and misread 18ft putt  PAR

    #10 15@3 hit beauty to 1ft almost an ace!  BIRDIE

    #11  18@130 D201 >130 pushed 2nd into bunker, doh!  and pitch out was terrible!, nice try with 26ft par attempt but short of power  BOGEY

    #12 15@730 >173 very nice 3H 2nd to 4yds using contours but a touch long but a hair short of power on 11ft putt darn!  PAR

    #13 15@12 D pushed 244 >83 lucky to hold fairway, downhill lie couldn't stop ball through back, pitch out from ugly sidehill 3yds long  and not close with 10ft putt pushed bad dropped shot from 80 yards, ugghh... BOGEY

    #14 14@5 D 210 >101 pin-hi with 2nd but 4yds right on dinged 2nd and sunk one!  BIRDIE

    #15 13@930 dingD 242 >99 pushed 2nd into bunker doh! good out with fullLW to 2yds and nice dinged 7.4ft save  PAR

    #16 14@11 slight push came up short 4yds  and buried 13ft putt dead centre  BIRDIE

    #17  18@745 232D >197 excellent 2nd skirting tree branches with big sidehill and downhill lie, ran it on to green 7yds short, a little low with 19ft huge curler  2.5ft save PAR

    #18 15@745 dingD >300 went dangerously far right with 2nd but just found fairway >125 and nice roll round using slopes to 2yds past but not quite enough break on 6.6ft birdie opportunity, darn!  PAR

    A 72, but again some stupidity involved. Should have been an easy 2 putt on 17, but somehow read the meter wrong EXACTLY like in first round and made a triple bogey. I thought I learned something from the first round, but apparently I did not learn anything. I have no idea where this kind of mistakes come from :( It is not a good feeling when you know you leave 4 strokes out there on two rounds due to putter meltdown/complete putter meter misread on two holes. Hard to be happy about anything when you screw up on the greens. Looking for an revenge in the next Tough-it-out tourney!!

    Round 2 68

    My best TIO round by far. I took 20 minutes more than I usually would to make sure every shot was properly considered, and the result was an almost complete absence of the usual mental errors and poor putting that had leant all previous rounds an air of disappointment. 

    Card and stats at 54m20s, and clubs are shown on return to the game client at the end of the vid.

    Thanks again to Corwyn for another excellently run tournament. We were lucky (though let's say it was all down to good planning) to get these TruGolf courses in just in time with the looming prospect of them being phased out. They seem to lend themselves perfectly to TIO, not being brutally long, but being fiddly enough around the greens to reward good course knowledge and management.
