  I don't think they were concerned on strokes, it was a matchplay game...my understanding...and iconian had to be in it to host the feed? 

  I think it was 2 and 1.

  MBaggese:

  I'll tell ya...other than watching a great match (congrats BTW), is was just as awesome to view the game from iconian's screen as he plays it.

  I was lucky enough to watch him AND Nivlac each host a game the same way in last year's Ryder Cup. Suffice to say I learned so much watching from their POV I knocked 2 strokes off my average. I hope you got the same lesson.  :-)

  Few of my own notes:

  1. it's important to understand that while it was a ranked match (to accommodate me streaming), we kept MP count. So, in the end score didn't matter. LIke on #13, bollox would have went for it but he didn't have to, so he lagged it close for easy win.

  2. meter in 4some MP is different than single player. Lee and bollox don't have great Internet, so their single play scores are much lower. Also, we all tried to play quickly, so many plays were rushed.

  By far the best shot for me was on #8. I won't spoil it but 50 of you seen it :)

  Also, those who do not play off legend tees/greens, Bollox posted a 60 and guess what, he didn't have a good round. Front 9 is easily 1 shot easier than back, so make your own conclusions.

  Hopefully, I will be back to broadcast next match. Replay would be up on the website anytime now.

  well, yes and no.

  Yes it was total fluke, obviously but I have hit it before, so I knew break and what it did. So at worst I be inside 5ft every time. But, if you kepe hitting them close, sometimes they will drop.

  Thanks for watching, always fun to play against avlee.  Eventually we got it going after a very slow start, tough winds!  Only 2 'good' wind we had was the first hole so the birdies were not coming easily.

   

  I knew I picked a bad week to go on one of my solitary re-connective fogealking seclusion vacations. Will there be any videos of this EPIC match? This common man would throw out a few bones to get a copy. Just sayin'

  Sincerely - I am Yancy

  Sure, we are good friends but it doesn't mean we'd lay down for anyone. I never went easy on anyone for that reason. I may lose interest but I'd never give you a hole, whoever u are!

  Hello Yancy,

  You should be able to watch it on icon's procaster page in the  video library eventually,  I just checked his page and it is not yet available for whatever reason.

  I enjoyed watching the  match. Thanks for streaming it for us.  I always thought Bollux was a machine.  After the front 9, i'm thinking well maybe he is human.  Watching the back 9...nope he is one with the computer lol.   Great game ya'll and thanks again!
