Playing Hacks

  When I was a hack I really enjoyed playing tour pros and masters because I could learn how they managed the courses and as a master I still learn a lot about course management.

  The trouble that has gotten worse are the players that forfeit the games especially the hacks. I have experienced forfeiting on the first hole because of a few poor shots and tonight a game was forfeited on the last shot because the hack missed the putt that could have tied the game. he then forfeited so the game was not credited.

  The trouble with this besides the very poor sportsmanship is the fact when this happens we lose country club credits and more important to me is that I have to play another game to receive the daily play credits.(450+ days in a row)

  Players that don't forfeit are being punished.

  I will not play a hack ever again.

  #1 Never use your pass to play people that you dont know .

  #2 Sounds more like the quitters are more likely to be multis trying to protect their accounts

  .As a level 96 Master you should be playing higher tiered players instead of Hacks . Stay in your club and play the members that you know  or make up a friends list and play from there .Stop picking on the Hacks looking for easy wins .

  +1 at least ;-} of course it is so handy to forget that we all spent time as a hack

  No, I'm gonna keep my gob shut, for once.

  Move along, nothing to see here.

  1) At CC L13, you don't need any CC XPs (no credits at stake), and

  2) days in a row (CDP) is a totally irrelevant achievement, invisible for any other person,

  3) if you want to keep it, just play one hole practice on any course - close to 1,000 XPs guaranteed in two minutes.
