  nice second round from racoondad. having shot 69 first time out, he posted 56 to leave him currently tied for fourth! i suppose that goes to show what you can do with the pressure off a little.

  still a lot of second rounds due to be posted. every second of practice counts i guess? lol.

  Oh what coulda been lol

  Started off +4 after 4, had a perfect meter and a very kind set of winds. Had a really bad case of Earlyitis and was punished accordingly. After #4, the nerves were gone & the twitch in the finger was replaced by a numbness. Slamming mouse on it definitely took care of the twitch. Ended my round with a semi-respectable 64 and I should've snooped around a little more to find a better formula for champ greens. Man, they was slick.

  Congrats to all who qualified & best of luck to all with their 2nd rounds.

  You just had an off day ......I remember the first time I ever saw you play Switz.......at the end of the game I came out and posted on my profile that I thought I had just played Jesus himself........I have to tell you though, when I read what you wrote above I couldn't help but laugh like H E Double hockey sticks ( LL ) cuz of the way you put things..... I have no doubt in your abilities and will always stand in awe of you ........So applause and cheers for you .....for qualifying and completing it out !!

  Maybe too little, too late, Switz, but I read a formula that worked well for me on the champ greens in the US Open (missed this one by one bleepin' stroke)- the 1.4 rule.  Divide the distance (plus/minus the slope) by 1.4 and you should be good, assuming these greens are similar.
