  I've been playing 2 months (or around there)

  And i'm working at this game as much as time allows.

  My lowest score is a 58, and my average is 63.9 (probably going to go back up the way I'm putting)

   

  My point is.... I've practiced, I've done everything possible to make myself better...

  Mainly, I found people better than me, and I asked them to help.. not once, has anyone turned me down, including those people that always get called cheaters. (IE: Bollox)

  Ask for help, don't beg for sympathy...

  BogeyBaer2008:

  I have to agree with you.  I have been playing this game since 2008 and am at the Master level,and I can barely break 70 on a regular basis.   Also,  if you notice, it's always the same people that win the big tourny's for the good prizes.  I have spent some of my own money to upgrade my equip and get better balls and it only marginally helps.  52, (20 under par) even for a video game is totally unrealistic, and you see that score way too often..................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  I apologize if this has been brought up already,  too many pages to sift through.  I bolded and underlined the section of your post that I will be referring to.

  Although you have been "playing this game since 2008"  , according to your stats, you have only played 344 ranked rounds. 

   

  I have been playing since Dec 2009, almost have 1k ranked rounds and well over  1k alt /shot games played.   Just today I have shot my first round in the 50's (for 18 holes that is). This game gets 'easier' the more you play it.  These uber low rounds you see posted by the "ELITE" players,  take a look at their stats and see just how many rounds they have played.

  They know these courses/greens inside and out.  I look at it like playing your local course over and over,  I don't need my GPS to play my local course since I know the course so well.

  Just looked up a members stats and he has 28 hole in 1's, 1,388 eagles, has a long drive of over 403yds.  I'm not saying he's cheating some way or another it just seems unreal to have those kind of stats.???

  Yes, but you have 47 ranked rounds. When you too have 100 times that maybe your stats will be hot.

  Ok: you are right, but it is stroke games that count towards your stats. The player you are mentioning( who I don't have the slightest idea who is) probably has thousands of stroke games..... and those do count. I have over 2000 alternate games, most of them 18 holes, but at the time of considering my stats, only what I got in stroke games is there. I could possibly have thousands of eagles and birdies that have gone down the sink. Unrealistic as it may be, that is the way that stats count here and you live with it or can go fly paper planes.. lol, just kidding.
