So yesterday I played in the daily at Valhalla. All I can say is wow!!! This was the first time I had played without the swing meter or the putting meter. At first I was intimidated on the first hole when I saw the settings but I managed to go par, birdie, birdie on the the first 3 holes. I was like, I think I might like this even better. The controls felt great and I managed to sink a pretty long putt for birdie on 3. I was stoked!!! Then the first par 3 hit me on 4 with the freakish pin placement it seemed and I fell apart. For some reason the par 3's killed me on that setup. I'm pretty sure that I will have the worst score for that tourney but I had still had a blast. I felt like I was really playing sim golf. My CAG is currently pretty low level across the board but if I ever get my putting figured out, watch out! LOL!
I was scared to death to play without the swing meter but I golfed about the same as I have been. Around +10. I always have a hole or 2, swing meter or not, where I just can't sink the putt. Getting better but still have a long way to go!
great news we will be eligible to have a club pro or whatever is at the top of the list, can't remember what they call it
So yeah, by the way, are we supposed to be recording our scores in the spreadsheet this week also? Because i forgot all about that part I can still go back and get the scotres if I need to.
Speaking of which, how many rounds have you played the last two days Johnny? LOL Great rounds in the weekly CapEm and BDog. Welcome Bama! Good times ahead. (cept when you miss those 4 ft sliders)
That was quality without the meter, really added pressure , practise swings and thinking, on my career I don't use meter but have swing set to hard not tourney and that's slightly more forgiving but keeps the suspense. I was doing real well @ valhalla but choked and hit 3 into the water lol. Has anyone noticed over the last 4 dailies at valhalla the pin placement has been the same even tho they are set different in the settings? Are we gonna do our own mini masters to go along with the real 1 over next few days? That would be cool!
12 rounds is awesome! I too was wondering if any Augusta action would be going on here this weekend. Doesn't seem so but sure the regular Live tournaments will have an Augusta weekly. Haven't looked for that yet.
Most of them were on the Nationwide Tour so I don't know if they really count or not, lol. Just made it up to the PGA Tour. If we are not doing more testing dailys, I can throw out some Master dailys if you guys want them.
There's no doubt I'll be playing at least one or two Augusta rounds per day over the weekend, so if you set them up, I'll be there. Today at around 11 AM pdt I'll be playing some Augusta par 3 if anyone wants to hook up for a round. Trade in your woods for more wedges.
Yep I'm up for some Augusta action, l think there will be some play the pros tourneys @ Augusta too in the xbox live tourneys. Nismo ill join you if I'm still on
augusta would be perfect, the only thing about takin away the swing meter is that it becomes much harder to hit cut shots and draws
Thanks! I'll be around over the next few nights if anyone wants to take on Augusta #sopumpedforthemasters
im pumped too man!!! who you thinks gonna win? check these out they put me right in the mood GOOO RORY THE KING
