Cabo del Sol...

  I paid to play it twice since it's launch, both occasions I enjoyed it but very much came to the conclusion I'd only play it once in a while. Why pay to play a course when you have 6 other great courses available for free?

  With it now being available to play via a ready go I have played both 9s each day and have to say that I thoroughly enjoy this course. Were it available for free I could see me playing it with friends everyday. It has it's quirks that make it a fun course and one that offers the opportunity to shoot low and be made an idiot of on the greens all at the same time.

  I hope WGT keep it on the RG circuit and I would recommend to those that haven't played it that are eligible to play RGs, to give it a go.

  I dunno Tiffer...200 credits to enter, pretty much means a top 3/4 finish to break even?

  200 credits to enter? It's just the normal 100 credits, no green fee. Just the same cost and odds as any other RG.

  I couldn't agree with you more, it's a fun course to play but it certainly isn't worth parting with credits for each time you want to play it. I'll stick with chancing my arm on the RGs but that's about as far as it goes.

  Heck, was a fun course, did the f9 in 31...missed a 5 foot birdie and a 9 foot eagle...so there's definitely some good scores to be had.

  Back nine is a bit tougher, with some strong winds could be a real challenge, wish I could have dinged my approach shots.

  Bottom line is I'll definitely be waiting for the next round of RGs.

  Tiffer,

  thats what I found out also. Now I try to play it once a day or so, whenever my friends are around. Most folks who complain how it looks, while have a point, are missing out on a great course.

  Love it :)

  Totally agree Icon.

   

  Sure, you can look at how the water come to the bank and go...grrr...but dang..that back nine is something to play for sure.  Would love to see a high wind single play tourney held there, be a good test for many.

  I played the course when it first came out, the free version and I said I would never play it again or pay the 100cr needed to play the full version of the course because I hated the course, really hated it... lol

  I tried the R/Go's yesterday for the first time, and my goodness, I actually enjoyed playing it. The Graphics looked different than the first time I played, or it must have been my imagination...don't know.

  I want to play it more now.

  Cheers
