  I"m not blaming anyone of cheating. Just wondering how the hell someone can shoot a 52 on kiawah island, that is a par 72.  Especially from legend tees. Well, I guess thats what happens when you allow someone to play a freakin tounament 100 times!!! In the specialty tournaments you should only be allowed to play a max 3 times to qualify, or heres a concept...just once like real tournaments.

  Well considering its NOT from the legend tees I guess this post (along with most of your others) is pointless.

  Ok, Mr WGT himself.  You conceded ***. I'm talking about the fall tournament.  Well, I guess since I dont belong to the world famous Deviations CC. My points dont matter. 

  If you dont have anything constructive or stimulating to say...keep your comments to yourself. You higher than mighty players on here who think they are so much better than anyone...look at yourself in the mirror and get a life.  Having played as much as you have must mean this is your life.  I am happy with life, kids, and family. I use this game as an escape an hour a day after work...not to prove how much better I am than anyone else.

  U2 should knock it off.

  Bollox is right though, it's not from legend tees but from Gold tees (master/tour master).

  I don't make a lot of posts and I don't really deal in personalities.  But:  20 under par from any tee is a little outrageous and unrealistic.  It would mean you eagled all the par 5s and birdied 12 of the remaining par 4s and par 3s ( or any other such combination, possible a hole in one or two).  This would mean 20 putts or less (maybe a chip in or two ).  This would mean making absolutely no swing errors, including distance and precision.  Truely doesn't seem realistic.  But kudos to stuffix on the 52, no matter how he got it.

  Unrealistic? How about a match at Kiawah for 18 where 3 Country Clubs have 10 players that average 55.6--playing in the weekly "single" play. 2 Players shot 53- 9 shot 54 and 16 shot 55.

  Devs top 10 scores averaged to 56.7 and that got them third place. Put a top player on the short tees here and give him/her multiple chances at a course and you will see some ridiculous scores.

  I've played with Stuffix-many rounds-he rarely misses a putt. 

  So wake-up and smell the coffee--Bollox, Stuffix, PGABound. and the majority of players in Deviations, Elite CC, Transgressional, Electra and others are for real. The bar is set very high.

  Perhaps if we all spent more time practicing and less time in forums, we may just have a magic moment----which reminds me--I see dansamcam on gotta go Challenge him for creds--BYE!

  The tournament of which you speak was the single play weekly and it was from a very short set of tees.  All the par 5's were easily reachable with mid irons and several of the par fours were driveable.

  I didn't see what the low score was, I assume 52 based on your post but it was a very easy round.  I am a member of the club of which you spoke badly, The Deviations and while I am not in the category of Bollox and some others, I managed a 62 with a meter glitch that costed me 2 strokes and 5 or 6 short putts missed.  Should have been  56 easily.

  For your comments about no kids, life, etc., many of us would take offense at that.  I have 3 kids, a wife and I play real golf 5 times a week and manage to carry a handicap of under 5 at my advanced age of 59.  

  If you can't play as well, then join the club but don't call out people and tell them that it is impossible just because you can't do it.

  My 2 cents is Bollox isnt perfect he does shoot in the mid 30's and mid 60's sometimes.So does most of the top 100 WTG golfers.I started in January and first time looking at these score wow what cheaters.Then learn how to putt bought better clubs,balls,wedges,etc.I started shooting low scores,better clubs better scores and lots of practice. I messaged some of these guys and simply asked how they do it.They give yousome answers.Yes there may be some ppl using help but if you are not making birdies and eagles you are not going to make  52 plain and simple.I finally shot a 58 but was on practice round didn't count.
