I was in contact with someone who rose to the top and he said his misses the 'inconsistencies' in as far as when they're not as common at high levels (with some exception) you wake up and hit bird bird bird par eagle bird bird, another round bird bird bird par eagle bird bird etc
Five or more rounds a day or whatever, then you get locked into winning creds you don't need usually, or your pushing to stay on the leaderboard.
The mystery from the 'old days' is kinda gone, the execution of the shots is 2nd nature, and you're just 'marking time'. Then it's like "voluntary house arrest", he told me.
He went on to play another game because he can play dozens of courses, never the same one twice if you choose. It's very refreshing and the realism of the ambiance is like real golf, the birds and wind and the trees actually sway in the breeze etc.
