    I'm pretty new to this game, but is it really possible to shoot a 45 on a hole-in-one challange?  That would be like an average of about 5 per hole.  I think it is impossible, but I've seen crazy scores like this.  Do these players have a cheat code or something?

    When I joined in mid Oct. the CTTTH  at Kiawah was a mere 33.25,while my first attempt was around 200.I don't know how they do it but I don't think they're cheating.

    I think those CTTH scores are possible. No doubt there are those that have figured out something most of us haven't.  For example, I came to this game in May and play much better now than I did then.  I was highly skeptical, especially of the stroke play scores, and have now exceeded what I thought was impossible.  I believe there is also a lot of luck involved in CTTH and never underestimate what can be accomplished with a lot of stick time...in other words, the more we play, the better our chances of putting together 9 holes without messing up.  I have recorded scores in the low 60's and always felt like I left a few shots out there.  Although I like CTTH challenges, I get bored in an hour...who knows what is possible if we played all day (smile).

    Myself and some others have been playing CTTH competitions on WGT in some shape or form for 2+ years now.  Trust me, very low scores are possible on all the courses.  It takes knowing your clubs, the shots at hand, and getting a little luck to boot.

    On Wolf  Creek closest to the hole challenge, I found out, on the second hole by moving the flag a quarter of an inch to the right I can hole it or get close every time {unless my timing  is way off that day). I use a taylor z wedge with 98 yard capacity. Hit it about 93 yds and if i`m a little left, right, or hit the ding i`m always a few feet at most from the hole. I have gotten bout 15 holes in one there, no matter which side of the ding I hit.. Now if I could only find a way like that with all the other 100 holes i`d be good. lol These guys have found the secret way for all the holes. P>S and it don`t matter what way the wind is blowing

    While I don['t know if I will ever achieve one of the top CTTH scores, I can see how they are possible.  I played the Kiawah CTTH competetion the other day 7 or 8 times in a row and I could see that if you took notes of where the club speed should stop, the amount to be aimed left or right, etc. you could get very close every time.  I don't have the patience to tdo this but a lot of folks on here do and have these numbers in their head already.

    I was even thinking of marking all the distances of each club on a piece of scotch tape, Then put it on the meter on the monitor with each different club. But to lazy for that :)

    on most of the holes, i know EXACTLY what club to use and where to place the shots, how the greens slope, etc.  actually, DOING IT and executing the shot,  however, is another story...
