  • FSX 2020 not counting gimme?

    FSX appears to count all irons/drivers/putts during a hole. However on the score card, after a hole, putts (seems to be mostly Gimme) are not counted on hole score card.

    anyone else have this problem or resolved it?

    Just to be clear...a gimmie is counted as a stroke and it should be. Are you saying that yours is giving you the putt and NOT counting a stroke? A "Gimmie" does not mean it is in the hole, but it assumes that you will make the putt from there and you don't need to putt it.

    If you already know this, no offense, but I remember being a new golfer and totally misunderstood that one.

      No problem. correct it’s not adding the gimme stroke to the final hole score. For example, putted for par 4 with 4th stroke and missed (less than 6ft) and it say pick it up gimme ... final hole score is 4 not a 5... good for score but not for reality! I’m not positive it’s just gimme not getting counted in final score but after process of elimination it appears to be.

        Do you have your handicap in there? That could be it. I have mine at 0 (it's definitely not) but I've heard of people having scoring issues like that because it is taking into account your handicap. If so, try making it 0 and see.

      Baller is probably right. FSX (stupidly, inexcusably) cards you a net score, not a gross score. So you need to set your handicap to zero, then you should be good to go.
